          yeah and pavlik is the best at 160 so is the #1 contender taylor, hopkins is the best at 175, juan diaz or joes casamayor are the best at lightweight and without a doubt mayweather is #1 at welter, why are you telling me in VERY division when your only pointing out 3 and im pointing 4

                Heres something to think about. If haye and Calzaghe are to lose their next fights.. Who does the U.K. have that they can TRULY depend on? Their three biggest fighters will have lost back-to-back-to-back. (By the way, I got Haye, and Calzaghe winning at this point.) And I realize that Macca is from Wales, but he doesn't have the following of the three big names from the U.K.

                That wouldn't happen in America. If Mayweather, Pavlik and Hopkins lost, we'd still have pletly of big names to choose from.

                People need to realize.. **** the size of the country, **** whatever else you want to blame it on. It's the fact that we are a melting pot. The best fighters from almost ALL countries come here and hone their skills. Simply, all there is to it.

                It's not fair to compare the two. Two entirely different animals.

                  I dont think Joe will ever fight at SMW again so if Roy and Joe were to fight
                  it would probably be at LHW

                    yup, like when Hatton lost to Mayweather he still remains the champion at Junior Welterweight and how Cory Spinks lost to Taylor at Middleweight he still remains the #1 contender in the Jr. Middleweight division
