    Dislike: Makes contradictory statements. Gave Hatton a payday instead of Casamayor.
    Oh, that would have been an interesting fight (Casa).

      That was the fight I wanted at either 135 or 140. Casamayor is one of my favourite fighters. And that would have been a REAL fight. Not the bull**** mismatch we are paying $50 for. Hatton is not on the level of a prime Casamayor.

      My current top five are Casamayor, Mayweather, Pacquiao, Salita, and Guzman.

        Playa, boxing isn't about who is the bigger man or harder puncher. It is about who can exploit the advantages and disadvantages to find their way to victory.
        was you the only male watching dancing with stars because of mayweather?

          Like: The combination of natural ability, technical ability, and work ethic
          Dislike: Lack of going for the kill when he has the opportunity to go for it.

            Why didn't that fight happen? I know for a fact after beating Corrales Floyd wanted Naseem (ducked Floyd like the plauge) and the winner of Casamayor and Frietas.

              I like him because
              he's black, he's a good athlete, best boxer in the sport

              Only things dislike are some of the decisions he makes(like going on DWTS) and his corny ass villian roles in fights. Also that retirement bull****.

                But Casamayor is not PRIME, he's 36, and he's lost 2 of his last 6 fights, even one to that BUM Castillo (your opinion, not mine) a few years ago.

                  At the time that that fight would have taken place, Casamayor was very close to his peak, if not peaking. But Casamayor lost, though I didn't see it, to Freitas.

                  Neither here nor there. I like Mayweather for his skill, work ethic, confidence, marketability.

                  Dislike, that he moved up, even though, I find it admirable, it took away from his power.

                    Oh yes that was it. The lost to Freitas was the reason the fight was derailed.

I'm usually not a fan of the favorites but with pbf moving up fighting bigger guys and great clinical showing i was one over... hatton will be a somewhat hard fight
                      Yeah and I'm sure you jerk-off everytime you watch the 500th replay of Floyd-Baldomir. Get a life you fegit.
