      Boxing will always be dominated by America. Since Mayweather has returned you can argue that 3 of the top 5 fighters in the world reside in the USA(Hopkins,Dawson, Mayweather). Also Pavlik, Mosley, and Williams could be argued as top 25 fighters. 6 of the top 25 fighters from one country, pretty dominat if you ask me.

          Floyd was still outweighed in the ring by Hatton.

          Only a fool would fight Tony for peanuts over Hatton for a fortune.

              I'm not talking about a green Hatton, I'm talking about the one that Floyd made jump up to fight him, you know, like he's making Marquez do right now.

              I have no clue what you're spouting off about in your "we running sht at 168" post.

                They had the WBO champ as the #1 guy...no wonder that rag sucks.
                margarito had just beat a top 10 welterweight right before zab lost to baldomir.

                you expect zab to be #1 still after losing to carlos baldomir?

                  I said you could argue it. Either way he is in the top 25 so thats 6 of the top 25 from America. No one can claim that much talent. I know boxrec isn't crap but what about Brian Villora(spelling?). He is very talented and is another fighter that might be cracking the list too.

                      A green Hatton?

                      LOL

                      You mean a Jr WW CHAMPION Hatton damn fool.

                      When Floyd moved from LIGHTWEIGHT to 140...Hatton didn't want any.
