    there were reports of him working out long before the training camp, the guy is like bhop, he's just in the gym more

    nonito donaire walks around at 140, bradley at 160, it doesn't mean nothin
    but floyd definitely is working his ass off so as not to blow up or he'd be at the 160's at least
    whether he works his ass off or not, his walk around weight is his walk aorund weight. he shouldnt be penalized because he stays in shape and his peers blow up. the fact is floyd doesnt blow up enormously.

        Hatton being one of the best if not the best his wins is honestly crazy. I know Floyd has great talent, no doubt, but his resume is really not great at all. Hatton has no sense of defense and Corrales was not anywhere near the caliber HOF fighter that say a ODH or Shane are. He beat them, but you know, way later than their primes. ODLH win was close anyway.

          Oscar at 154 was NOT CLOSE. Anyone who actually watched that fight live did not have it a SD. Only the the most bias Oscar fans or the blind Mexican fans in the stands though that fight was close.

          With Mayweather, I've never seen a fight get out landed by like 50 punches in 4 rounds (Ortiz) and have people say the fight was close and that it was a 50-50 fight. And also, I've never seen a guy get out landed by almost 100 punches during the course of the fight (De La Hoya) and have people say the fight was close and a SD

          If Floyd doesn't have a good resume, than a HOF fighter like Miguel Cotto has a s**t resume. Floyd's resume is HANDS DOWN far superior to a guy like Cotto, and Cotto is a HOF fighter.

          I've always thought Castillo, Corrales, G. Hernandez, and Hatton, given what other fighters have gotten into the HOF, are borderline HOF fighters and it's debatable. Look at Kostya Tszyu, a great example of a modern fighter who got into the HOF with relative ease. Compare the resume's of Tszyu to Hatton-Castillo-Corrales-G. Hernandez.....pretty similar and I'll take Corrales and Castillo's best wins at least equal, if not better, than Tszyu's best wins. And lets not forget that Ricky Hatton beat Kostya Tszyu H2H, when Tszyu was #1 JWW in the world. And lets not forget that Hatton (#8) and Corrales (#5) were both Top 10 P4P fighters at points in their careers. And even though Mosley was past his prime, he was #3 P4P and had just knocked Margarito out when Floyd fought him. And lets no also forget that Floyd is arguably the only guy to even beat Marquez, and without a doubt the only guy to beat him convincingly, shutting him out. And he did it at a weight that Marquez arguably just beat Manny at.

          The hate is so strong towards Floyd, that it's almost as if he's become underrated in the past 5-6 years.

            Genero Hernandez will probably get in too, considering he died of cancer and all that.

                Hatton is a top 5 or 6 win. He's a top 5 or 6 win for Pac, too.

                Mosley
                Corrales
                Castillo
                Delahoya

                    Agreed.

                    Honourables would be Chavez, Manfredy, Gatti, Sosa, Corley

                      I'd leave Sosa and Corley off that. Those were alright wins but nothing really good or anything.

                      My honorables would be Gerena, Manfredy, Gatti, Chavez, and Baldomir.
