        I would, Spinks is too small for HW and still beat Holmes. If Antonio Margarito won a paper title at 160 and lost to Pavlik and dropped back down i'd still recognize him as a former Middleweight champion who was fightin out of his best weight.

        Tony's best weight, 147 anything below or after that is just extra, Mayweather is a 130 pounder, anything after that is just extra

          lol, I remember Floyd calling Gatti a "paper champ".

          So what would that make Floyd who beat a paper champ?

              Yeah...he beat Hatton...who was a WELTER.

              Geezus. You act like they fought at 140 or something.

              LIKE I SAID, his work at 140 and 147 was disappointing. Good...but disappointing. He never fought the best IN that division.

                God knows he would have made just as much money at 130.
                What does money have to do with anything?


                Here, lets try again.

                Thats fine. But if its not his ideal weight, he should have never moved up, called himself the best ever or degraded the best welters in the division without fighting them.


                Seriously, how can anyone stand by a guy who says this,

                "we're not fighting to prove whos the best"

                      Why do people move up in weight?

                      Money...

                      Why did Mosley move up 2 weight classes weight to fight Oscar?

                      Money...

                      Why is Manny moving up in basically 3 weight classes next week?

                      Money...

                      If you can't understand that... there is no sense talking to you...
