    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.
    When did knockouts become a standard of performance?

    Is Willie Pep an all-time great? Is Pernell Whitaker an all-time great?

      Here is what you can't simultaneously do:

      You can't simultaneously denigrate Floyd's opposition while saying that hatton is a very good fighter because of his record.

      No objective person with a modicum of boxing knowledge would dispute that Mayweather has the better resume.

      So, you make yourself into a two-faced hypocrite when you criticize FMJ's resume and then say that Hatton is a very good fighter.

      Corrales+Castillo+castillo+Genaro+ Judah+Chavez+ Manfredy+Delahoya+Corley+Judah+baldomir+famoso+goy o is greater than the resumes of BOTH Hatton and calzaghe combined.

      True Story.
      God i hate bashing a guy with such great avatars, but...

      First off, the guy said SINCE Castillo. Why can't you get that Dios? Let's focus on just that for a moment. SINCE Castillo, Floyd really hasn't beat anyone of note! Of those with any quality at all he did beat-DLH,Judah, Floyd didn't look all that great. Facts Dios.

      Now, you say "What about Hatton". My wife does the same **** everytime we agrue. It's called changing the subject to avoid the issue. What does Floyd's resume have to do with Hatton or Calzaghe? Floyd's resume was created by Floyd, period. He chose his opposition. The funny thing about resumes in boxing is they speak for themselves.


      The truth is simple. Floyd has a weak resume, as does Hatton. The difference is, Floyd is heralded as the second comming and Hatton is not. If both resumes are weak, then how the hell can one warrant greatness and the other warrant a fraud?

      Simple-It can't if you are objective.


      Your stance should be that you BELIEVE Floyd to be superior, but there is now way to really tell until they meet. So to argue supremecy without actually having the fight first is purely speculation based on perception.

      That said, Hatton will crush Mayweather come fight night!!!!

        All prospects are unproven, but by the time they do get proven, then they are old.

        I just think you are the ultimate cynic in the sport.
        So are you happy to see top fighters fight ****ty opposition then?
        I think Floyd , Bernard , RJJ , Calzaghe etc are all good fighters but I think as fans we have been short changed by their unwillingness to fight each other on the basis of Money.
        We all know how fighters argue over who gets the top dollar.
        A ruling that gave the champ 60% and the challenger 40% would end all arguments.
        And none title fights 50/50 would end all **** match ups I guarentee it.
        I give credit where credit is due.
        But I can't buy into Hype.

              Good post and exactly what I said ages ago.
              Hatton had nothing to do with my question and I never said he was better or worse.

                There is a problem of top fighter taking the easy fights in order to prolong their reign. I agree, My hope is that the next generation will see the error of that for their own legacy's.

                • Dios I will bet you all my points at the time of the fight that Hatton Beats Mayweather.
                  My only reason for this is because I feel Hatton has the Style to win.
                  Not because he has fought any better or worse opposition.

                    If Floyd were to lose it would be ridiculous for his backers to leave the forum. All those bets should be called off.

                      Fact: You're downplaying DLH. He might not be the Oscar he once was, but he's still up there with the best in the world.

                      The truth is simple. Floyd has a weak resume, as does Hatton.
                      The truth is simple.... neither has a weak resume. Floyd has a fantastic resume while Hatton has a sound one. Floyd's resume even since Castillo is damn good. To suggest Floyd's is anything but is simply foolish.

                      As for the fight in hand and about the OP...

                      I'd love to see Floyd knock Hatton out. Not because I like Floyd or overly dislike Hatton, but rather I want to see the better man win impressively. Odds are Floyd will be on his bike most of the night and score a pretty wide UD... but what's the fun in that? I want to see him stand toe to toe a few rounds, move when needed, and try to be a boxer puncher like he once was.
