    I expect more from a guy who beat B-Hop twice (Not in my opinion) or atleast, more from a guy who was VERY competitive against B-Hop.


    Damn You Taylor
    I agree, but I think his defense is fairly good in the early rounds, but as the fight wears on, he begins to decline. I re watched some of Froch-Taylor today, and I couldn't help but feel sorry for Taylor. He was so damn close to being back on top.

      It has actually calmed down now, there was a period of time were 9 out of 10 threads were about Floyd, and none of the thread starters were Floyd fans. And the 10th thread would still be about Floyd, but an actual fan asking "Why all the hate on Floyd?"

        5. James Kirkland is an idiot.

        What else am I missing? Add on
        Sadly, I'm pretty positive B-Hop is done for.

        There's nobody out there right now that can offer him the kind of money and/or legacy fight that he's looking for.

        Adamek, Froch, and Dawson are all solid Champions, and possible opponets that I would pick him to beat.

        But they're not exactly standout names right now, either.

        And 'Nard ain't getting any younger.

        If he waits too long, I really fear he may end up losing against whoever he picks next, assuming he does indeed pick somebody.

            Also ; It's a low point in boxing right now.

            That'll change next month with Cotto/Clottey and Klitschko/Haye.

            And in July we got some good scraps too, topped off by Mayweather's return against Marquez.

              Yeah, I also think B-Hop is done but ****! I thought he was done after Taylor 2 Who knows, might make another come back

                I want Hopkins vs. Trinidad 2. I know my boy Tito will likey lose but it would definitly bring excitement to MSG.

                The best fighter in the world vs. the best Mexican fighter in the world on July 18 to see who will face the most exciting fighter in the world. If you a boxing fan it gets no better than this

                  I wouldn't mind Tito vs Pavlik at 160.

                    6. There absolutely nothing else interesting taking place in boxing right now. The heavyweight division is a snoozefest. Cruiserweight? What's that? The only big match at LW is Dawson/Hopkins/Calzaghe which won't happen. No big matches at 168, 160 or 154. None of the top-tier fighters in lower divisions are meeting, so there is nothing else to talk about. Its a shame. Because she should be talking about Nonito Donaire/Vic Darchinian II or Vasquez/Darchinian or Nate Campbell/Joan Guzman or a number of other interesting matchups that could be taking place.

                      it happens with every future match up and ****..
                      margarito vs. cotto was the talk of the town for a good minute up until the fight and especially after.
                      if de la hoya, bernard or calzaghe where fighting it would be the same way too.
                      Pacquiao just ktfo Hatton so of course he'll be getting talked about for a while too.
                      You're an idiot. Absolutely no one was talking about Margo-Cotto until the week of the fight. I even made several threads in the months before asking why no one was talking about that fight.

                      They weren't even talking about Hatton-Pac until hours before the fight, everyone was just talking about Floyd's comeback.
