    Because it now takes six months to coordinate/promote a mega-fight. So, you are losing a big chunk of your prime.

      Well PBF might not lose, but there arent many fights to look forward to. The first one was quite good, so i'd like to see another if they coiuld get it on.

        I would also like to see Floyd fight Hatton again. Very much.

          sure there's definetley too much an emphasis placed on losses


          but I think anyone on here would agree there's a hell of a difference between losing a UD or even split decision in a close fight

          vs not even making the distance.

            Cotto and Williams are good matches. Wouldn't even mind Forrest.

            I'm just not into all the holding and hitting. Free hand fighting is better and it would have made the fight more exciting from the start of the match, which is also why I would like to see Floyd vs. Cotto.

            Ricky's old way of fighting was much more pleasing to the eye, however, I can see the advantages to fighting the way he does now but one problem, it doesn't work on everybody, specifically, 147+.

            It still could work with an England fight. The ref discussion leaves it open to sell the fight.

              There is no need for the rematch against Mayweather, I doubt anyone in America will pay for the rematch.
              that would be OD
              the pacman fans vs the hatton lovers
