After Floyd beats Hatton, who's the next hope?

[Jim Jeffries]

HOW OLD was Pac when he "turned pro" at 106.?? And what weight was Floyd fighting at that same age?



Figure it out, THEN come back, princess.

Pacquiao was man enough to turn pro at 16, while Floyd hid in the Amateurs until 19 when he was fighting 125 and people mature at different ages, so what's your point. Pac is 2 inches shorter with a lot shorter reach and is just now making an impact at 130. Asking him to jump to 147 to fight Floyd would be like asking Floyd to fight Jermaine Taylor at 160, where Floyd would be humiliated.

Starting your pro career at 16 doesn't make you a man, just an early bloomer. Him starting so prematurely is probably why he has 3 losses on his record (2 against nobodies) for him to be so "great". At the end of the day, Pac and Floyd shouldn't even be mentioned in the same breath..

Hey genius, Asians and Mexicans turn pro at that age because of options and economics. And poor amateur structures in their countries.

Mayweather went to the Olympics. Like others who were "hiding in the amateurs": delahoya, ali, foreman, leonard, pernell, frazier, jones, holyfield, etc... Ya know, cause they weren't man enough to turn pro at 16.

You really embarrassed yourself. Stop now.

It is painfully obvious the pattern that emerges with Floyd Mayweather jr. concerning his love/hate relationship with emotionally invested fans of the sport. We can go as far back as Gatti and trace the exact same sentiment and wishful thinking. Irrationality over takes the mind of those that want to see Floyd lose, to the point where folx were basically praying that he'd lose to Gatti and actually gave him (Gatti) a decent chance. We all know what happened. Skipping Sharmba, the same applies to Judah. People hated Floyd so much, that I remember comments stating that they actually hated both fighters, but to go with the lesser of the two evils, they picked Judah as their favorite to win. Of course Floyd ****ted on him also, and Baldomir was the new hope. Floyd again fights Baldy, and wins an easy decision without a scratch on his face. De la Hoya turned into a nonsense race battle in some (not all) sectors, emotions were so high. People wanted so bad for the guy to lose, claiming also that De La Hoya was just too big, too strong, jab is too precise, too imposing, and too big of a star for Mayweather to overcome. Once more, the pretty boy comes out on top. So my question now is, since obviously the exact same pattern emerges with Ricky Hatton, when Floyd beats him decisively like most expect him to do, who's the next fighter that Floyd bashers are going to lean on? I'd just like to know now for future reference. Is it the Cotto/Mosley winner, is it Paul Williams or Cintron, is it Kelly Pavlik? Grasping at straws is so common with the anti-Floyd crusaders, that I just felt compelled to ask.

When a guy is undefeated, its abvious such pattern will start following him. I'm sure hatton had his own naysayers.... (castillo, tsu), Calzaghe (Lacy, now Kesler), now pavlik (hopkins, Kesler, Calzaghe, even Taylor remach). However I give hatton a very slight chance of pulling it off 20/80.

The next hope is obviously Cotto and I've predicted the aftermath well...

Unfortunately for you Isis, there will be no need to find an opponent after dec 8th.

Damn Homie, you should be a fortune teller

You will be missed.

Man, I'm telling you, it's a reoccurring pattern and I never expected it to stop.. Not now. And yes, Sir. Easton will surely be missed. At least he isn't copping out by moving on to the next "hope", since his lost. He took it like a man.

Speaking of taking it like a man, where's that idiot Toney Booth? He's the one that was saying Floyd would have black blood running out of his ears after the Hatton fight.
