      Bradley, Lamont Peterson, Khan and I wouldn't rule Matthysse out. Mike Jones really isn't that good and no offense, I really don't see him going far. No type of inside game, or footwork, even Berto destroys him.

          Yup the same guy who still has his cherry and has a higher KO%(76) than Ortiz. Who has 2loses (soon to be 3) and a KO% 66.6

            The midget as you label it rules the boxing world.

              no way peterson beats him at ww. peterson shouldnt even be at jww. khan? no...i think mike jones is the worst type of fighter for a guy like khan, i predict a knockout. mathysse? dont overrate the dude.

                Peterson would get in on him easily, Lamont ain't slow footed. Khan is simply more polished, if he's able to stay on his feet, he wins that easily. He's the better boxer, more skilled. Why shouldn't I? Look at the Karass fight, even in the rematch he looked unimpressive.

                I'm serious about not ruling out Matthysse too.

                  like i said peterson will never be even a decent ww. he doesnt belong there, hes too small. and khan is not more polished, all the holes u said jones has in his game, khan has as well and hes also bigger and stronger than any fighter khan hasever fought. think maidana...khan faded against a lesser skilled fighter, am i supposed to believe he wont fade again?

                  and he the rematch was impressive enough. it wasnt that close of a fight, imo. ur underrating the guy. but im not gonna talk junk about it, just keep watching. i dunno if hes gonna be great, mebbe not. but i think hes gonna be a force in the ww division if he stays there, no doubt about it.

I thought *****s would appreciate an African American that still has his cherry (like Floyd). But since Mike Jones name is now being put next to Pacquiaos name - all of a sudden Mike Jones is BS fighter. Even though Mike Jones is bigger, has a longer reach and a higher KO% than Ortiz.
                    Hate to say it,But africans are a dying breed in this sport.
