If Floyd Finishes Hatton and does it impressively......

[cortdawg25]

Don't get me started on Hopkins.
20 defences against who?
3 of those against Robert Allen & 3 Blown up Welters.
He lost to both TRUE World class champs in Taylor & Roy Jones.
Tarver aint all that and as for his fight with Winky it was the most boring fight ever.
Hopkins had plenty of other options throughout his career to define himself with the Supermiddleweights & Light Heavyweights.
He chose to boil down and stay where there was less competition.

exactly what hatton has been doing, except he won't have the 20 defenses. Despite all the knocks you put on Hopkins he is steal winning against top opposition at 40+ which was my point

What Top Opposition?
Tarver & Winky?
**** me there are better fighters out there he could go in with.
Calzaghe , Chad Dawson , Kessler ........

As a paying FAN I want to see the best fight the best.
We have finally got some decent match ups coming and been (Pavlik Taylor , Hatton Mayweather etc)
This should be happening as the norm.
Every other sport you regularly see the best vs the best.
Boxing it seems hasn't been playing that game.
Mayweather has plenty of options at 140-154.
Cotto , Margerito , Cintron ,Collazo ,Mosley ,ect etc etc....
Its no good telling us he can beat them all he needs to show us he can beat them all.
Is that really too much to ask?
Where would Boxing be if Ali had said "Ah **** it I could beat Goerge Foreman, Joe Frazier etc "without actually gifting us Fans of Boxing by doing it?
Same with Lennox Lewis he fought everyone in his division before hanging them up.
Why isn't that happening anymore?

Considering Margarito, Collazo, and Cintron as options for Floyd is too much and flat out rediculous. He needs to show that he can beat Cintron maragrito and Collazo, hilarious

tarver and winky were considered higher opposition than Calzaghe and dawson at the time he fought them. Please believe it!

Why is that hilarious?
They are all contenders.
Much better contenders than Henry Bruseles , Sharmba Mitchell , Arturo Gatti etc....
A champion is supposed to DEFEND against the top contenders.
That is the WHOLE POINT OF BOXING.
You may well be happy with Floyd hanging his gloves up after fighting for a title once but I am not.
Floyd has a lot to prove yet if he wants to be considered one of the best Welters in his lifetime let alone ever.
The trouble is his fans are happy for him to shortchange them by only fighting when it suits his pocket.
He has no real legacy at 140 ,147 or 154.
There are too many unanswered questions.

Thats the difference between me and you.
I DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE!

Back on subject, who is Floyd going to knock out?

No one. It's so sad, because if you watch his early fights Floyd is a hungry beast and a KO artist. Now he's just pretty all the time and running.

I don't know if Floyd will ever knockout another fighter again honestly.

Come now... we all know that your criteria says they all suck.

Tarver - Old.
Winky - Old.
Calzaghe - Old and hasn't beaten anyone.
Kessler - Hasn't beaten anyone.
Dawson - Prospect, meaning, that whoever beats him won't get credit because he wasn't any good to begin with.

You see why it is frustrating to have people like you downgrade all these fighters' accomplishments? No one can ever win.

You must forgot he is 17 lbs beyond his natural weight so that might be a reason.

Hopkins could have chased Roy & Toney up the ladder.
But he didn't.
I mean in their respective prime as well.
