      I think he lost to Felix Sturm, but you have to remember, that's wayy above his natural weight. Hopkins was above his weight too.
      who cares what his natural weight was.. fact was he got a boxing lesson by felix sturm.. and a bogus gift decision... golden boy is overrated.

        Itty-bitty Wright.

        That doesn't look that awesome to me.
        Dwiens there are 4 Elite fighters in that list ,Floyd has only fought 2 Elite fighters ,if Winky & Oscar ,Tito are small then surely u must level the Hatton is small & Dela Hoya is shot criticism at Floyd also

        Hopkins has more Elite fighters on his record that u must conceed

          Hatton was small, but at least he had fought at the weight at least once.

          De La Hoya was old... period.

          Castillo wasn't old and was in his prime.

          Corrales was in his prime and was way big for that weight, so...

          Hopkins doesn't have a really big name on his record that doesn't have a secondary explanation behind it.

            Hatton isn't a good 147lber, Collazo and floyd proved that.

              And De La Hoya isn't a good 160 pounder, Sturm and Hopkins proved that.

              So for the sake of this argument, those two cancel each other out.

                just take a rust spoon and kill yourself man. Quicker??? Are you kidding me?? Hatton's feet and hands are both exponentially quicker than Cotto's. Cotto just has a better chin and power.

                  Tell that to Quintana and Mosely, observe before you speak next time.

                    It wasn't speed that beat mosely you dumb ****, it was timing. Cotto beat Quintana based on his pressure fighting and his will to win. Timing and will beats speed anyday, observe before YOU speak next time.
