Mayweather vs Marquez is the same that Hopkins vs Oscar/Tito??

[Spray_resistant]

He dropped Roberto Allen with body shots, Allen is bigger then DLH. Strum may have proved that DLH had no business at 160 but we're talking 156, 2 lbs more then DLH's natural weight. If anyone was affected by anything, it was B-Hop.

That was a different fight and a different fighter. My issue is just wanting fighters to exclusively fight other fighters their own relative size in the weightclassses they belong in. This way no one can question any win or loss on this basis because no one is excusably too small or excusably weight drained......I don't take too much consideration into "official weigh ins", but more so what they weigh during the actual fight when it matters.

It's exactly the same, only diffence between Bhop and Floyd is that the challengers were the draw. In terms of money Bhop would be dumb to turn that down, now Floyd is a totally different story.

You guys are fools, that is all I have to say.

I'm with you on that also, what they weight during the actual fight does matter to me also.

Bernard won against Oscar, but Oscar actually fought Bernard for what it's worth until the body shot came. Marquez looked like a dear in headlights against Mayweather.

if you give the same credit to floyd and bernard

[PRINCSHERPY]

Anyone who vote yes is ****in idiot.

DE LA HOYA strugle to make 147 when he fought TITO.

He already was superfeatherweight champ,lightweight,lightwelterweight and WBC welterweight champion.

MARQUEZ had only 2 fights at lightweight division.

NONE in lightwelterweight and NONE in WW.

[Bushbaby]

Ummmmm,DLH & Tito were 160 pound champs,Marquez never fought above 135,this really isn't debatable,unless a floyd fan is trying to justify why floyd doesn't fight welterweights!!Besides didn't B-Hop beat almost every other top 160 pound fighter??Just saying,cause floyd did not dominate welter,at all,nope,never!!

[ИATAS]

The people who voted yes are idiots, to bad this poll isn't public.

Tito was a middleweight champion for crying out loud. Marquez never fought above 135 in his life and he fights floyd at 147. smh

[Al Haymon]

What do you think is the same or not???

Yes in the case of Oscar. No in the case of Tito.

Oscar started as a lightweight. Keep in mind that Oscar is a guy who fought Chavez, Gatti, Whitaker, etc. The Pernell bout was highly competitive with many people thinking Pea won. The other bouts had their moments. The thought that any of those guys would/could fight Bernard is crazy.

Every admits that Oscar's best weight, in his prime, is not above 147. Everyone agrees that Oscar was fat and slow at 160 and Sturm was robbed.

So, how is Oscar a legitimate opponent for Hopkins?

...would you want to see Floyd vs Hopkins?


Hopkins last four fights made:

Ornelas: A MW/SMW
Pavlik: A MW
Calzaghe: a SMW- loss
Wright: a JMW/MW

True Story.
