PBF had alot of difficult fights early on in his career, he only had the chance to pick and choose his fights after he fought Dela hoya. Cotto is on the path that Mayweather had to take early on in his career, I just hope this 2 can fight because all this is becoming ridiculous now, First we had the Mayweather is avoiding Hatton threads and how Hatton was going to wreck Mayweather then he got KO now Cotto is the man to do it!!! After cotto i want to know who the next anointed "ONE" would be.

its mostly because hes on top, when he was fighting gatti this board was going crazy, when he fought bruseles again, everyone loved it, same with chop chop. Honestly i remember this board when those fights went down and the reception was very positive, especially the gatti fight, people on this board couldnt get enough of how he went above and beyond expectation, of course, its different now, but anyone who has been here as long as me knows how it really was when he fought those guys, everyone was impressed.

Its because people have short memories, I remember some people on here(I have to admit that was due to hate) picked Gatti to KO PBF, Some picked Judah, some even picked Baldomir "Because he is a full WW"

but was it enough to merit a statement such has "Everyone picked Baldomir, Gatti, Judah"?

None of the others claim to be the best boxer in history, whilst simultaneously failing to prove they are even the best welterweight in 2008.

Fighters say alot of thing, That should be expected and shouldnt be held against them.

?

he hasnt taken more than a year's time between fights in his career and has only fought once in calendar year once (2003)

Mayweather fights only once this year and it's a rematch against DLH.

Let's see how much Joe proves at 175..LOL

Barely slapping his way past 43 y/o Hopkins doesn't prove he's better than Chad Dawson..

Chad would have killed Hopkins.

Oh Not at all, The ones that actually picked against him did so because of Hate not anything else.

Now they all have different screen names and calling Floyd a ducker.

not everyone, but trust me, alot of people were picking baldomir to knock him out, gatti as well, people didint know how he would react to the power. you may think its all fun to laugh at it now, but nobody, not even me, knew the fight with gatti would result in that type of beating.
