    don't bother mate.

    floyd stans.

    if they have prettyboy , money , money may as their handle , don't even bother.

    you're talking about a group who tried to argue the decade is 2000-2010.

    they have no concept of certain things.

      Cotto was a legit threat and no Oscar. Freddie it seemed wanted to test the waters against someone who is dangerous. Cotto looked great at 145 physically and was fast. He was 146 VS Clottey a few months ago so it's not like he was drained.

      Now that Pac has grown into 147, I feel they are confident he can add the mass and still perform well.

      Foreman is a damn big guy, no matter what quality he is. At 154 it will still be hard.

      5 foot 11 and a 72 inch reach VS 5 foot 6 and 67 inch reach.

      It is not a great fight, but he is tougher than Maillagi IMO. I of course would like Mosley or Mayweather, and Williams or Martinez for quality.

        it's called a tuneup.

              Yuri Foreman at 154 is harder than Paulie at 140

              5 foot 11 and 72 inch reach VS 5 foot 6 and 67 inch reach...

                    Cotto looked fine, nay even healthier at 145, quit the whining.

                      you can't fight tough fights every single fight.

                      not even the old school guys did that.

                      it's just not possible.

                      you have to throw in some softies in between.



                      btw 9 my ass. didn't look more than 6 the last time you pmed me a pic.
