    I'm asking myself... was that worth staying up till 4am for? Seems weird without an undercard.

    It's okay, but it has an edge of spite when it's so one-sided.

      Well...looks like no 140 pound superfight with Ricky Hatton.

        I thought Sharma was sneaking more of his punches around Floyd's guard to the body than the punch stats gave him credit for, but Floyd was clearly the better fighter. Sharmba did hold his own alright, and he did better than I thought he would. Floyd is still very fast at 147, but I think he lost a little. A fight with Zab would be VERY interesting. Zab has more speed and more power than Sharmba, so I think he actually has a decent chance. I haven't seen enough of Zab to know how smart he is in the ring though.

          I think the straight left of Zab's will cause major problems for Floyd if they ever fight. That is Zab's money punch and he is very quick and powerful with it.

          This fight needs to happen, it looks like Floyd's stay at 140 is over, he won't be fighting Hatton.

            I agree. He handles 147 very well, so I don't see why he would ever drop down again. There's plenty of good fights at 147.

              He should fight Hatton although.

              Mayweather has bulked up a bit, so I think He would be a bit favoured if He were to fight Hatton, but as always I give Hatton a chance. He has an awesome team.
