He is already embarrassing himself too much.

If i made a thread called rate Zab Judah's resume, then another "rate Hoya's resume" and repeat for all top 15 p4p fighters you would see clearly why Joe is overrated.

The more successful you get, the more some people hate you. Some people get more bitter than others. I remember Ali and Hagler getting stick, and nowhere near the credit they deserved. Larry Holmes too...

For eg, look at all the Calzaghe threads on here now. The more the better.

If mayweather comes back, you'll see hate threads of him multiply - esp. if he wins. Basically, the more the hatred, the more successul you are generally. Remember the stick and boos Eubank got in the early 90's. lol.

Its nothing to do with being a hater, joe is just not as good as the undefeated record suggest. He did not fight the best in his era and he will always be remebered for that amongst true boxing fans. Beating a old Hopkins and super shot Roy Jones is not exactly career defining. If you really look at it Joe is the welsh Sven ottke.

A few other points, Ok the other notable Undefeated fighter who is much mentioned on Boxing scence in Money May, Ok maybe he should have had a few more fights with the usual suspects(marg,williams cotto etc) however im sure many of you hand on heart know floyd has the tools to defeat these fighters, Question is can joe beat a prime jones? Hopkins? Dawson? i have my doubts.

You see the thing is Joe will never get my respect and many other fans full respect because ther is no career defining fights to talk about.

Floyd...Multiple weight champ, Beat a Undefeated Corrales,Hatton etc etc

Manny Pac... Multiple weight champ, Beat Oscar, Diaz Barrera,Morales etc

Hopkins... Winky, Trinadad,Oscar, Pavlick etc

Jones... Toney,Hopkins, Etc

Calzaghe... Kesseler??? Bika?? manfredo?lol Grandad hopkins? lol

YOU get my point

[hammerhiem]

In the present era, he gets an 8 from me, I still don't know who all the haters think he didn't fight at SMW...

If you compaire it to the 70's he'd probably only get a 6 but it's not the 70's and if we are compairing to the 70's none of the fighters today would get more than 7/10.

De La Hoya would get like a 7 from me.
