    Duran is a lightweight who fought Hagler at middleweight?

    what are you trying to say?
    And are you trying to compare Roberto Duran to Ricky fucck Hatton?

    Just curious?

    And Hopkins win over Oscar is not really touted as GREAT...

    his wins over Tarver and Pavlik are...

      Reed stop being technical and look at the point.

      the point is this, When did we as boxing fans stop giving fighters credit for beating other great fighters even if they moved up in weight.

      SRL beat Hagler at middleweight....Now if Hagler beat SRL middleweight do we say all SRL was just a welterweight???

      Fighters know what they are doing when they sign there name of that dotted line.

      Although This is not my position, I understand that this is how it is.

      If Hatton beats Pacquaio will people say Pacquaio is just a lightweight.
      and Hatton's win is not important.???

        hopkins was 28 yrs. old. at the age of one's physical prime.

        hopkins also has had more pro fights than jones had at the time they met.

        corrales was a warrior but he was no hopkins.
        you may be correct but coralles was p4p number 3 i believe at the time, and don't forget how floyd dominated him also. leave all that weight drained bull**** out of it. floyd fought hatton at 147, coming down from 150 and dominated hatton also. i don't want to hear it. don't try to compare careers as if floyd didn't fight champions and good fighters like roy did.

        floyd accomplished more.

              So Basically you are saying That No body should get credit for beating a fighter smaller then themselves and moving up in weight?

                no, not at all...

                what im saying is floyd beating ricky at 147 shouldnt be touted as highly as you seem to think so...

                added on to the fact, i was rooting for floyd.. and was jumping up and down when he knocked him down... i liked the fight... but, why not cotto or margarito... why not the best at his weight?

                      It is the same as if Roy would have fought Tarver at HW...
                      Why Not Corrie Sanders, Chris Byrd, Lenox Lewis, and Holyfield.

                      Why didnt Fight the best Heavyweights when he had the belt at Hw. and could have??? He came in vs John ruiz at 226 pounds all muscle...!!

                      I have no doubt he could have been a force in the HW division.
                      look at what Chris byrd and Holyfield did.

                      why didnt Roy do it...?
