    For me, I go with Hatton simply because Floyd went into that fight thinking "Oh this guy is undefeated and he really thinks he can beat me? I will show him the true difference between us" and for 8 round Floyd fight's Hatton's type of fight (inside, rough with plenty of body shots) and totally outclasses him. What really seals the deal isn't the KO but the 9th round, when Floyd proceeds to Jab Hatton's face off just to say "SEE this is what I COULD have done to you but I just had to prove a point." Absolutely masterful.

      Did I once say Pac sucks???? No. Both are ATG's and the best of their era, hands down. And BOTH are to blame for that fight not happening yet. Pac for straight up refusing random blood testing until fight day for 2 years and Floyd for backing off on the 50-50 split. And Pac was ****** for saying he'd take less money, which he now says he won't do. And Floyd is ****** for not counter offering a 60-40/55-45 split at the very least.

      That's the bottom line.

        Antonio Margarito, Miguel Cotto, Manny Pacquiao. Three fighters everyone says Floyd "ducked" or "is ducking". What's their common link? Bob ****ing Arum. Cotto leaves Arum and a fight with Floyd get's made EASILY.

          He's fighting Cotto now, so we can take that name off.

          Of all the fighters someone has listed that he's "avoided", I thought Antonio Margarito was the only one who sort of found a way around. Not that he was afraid of Margarito or anything, but because I think in 2006 he knew he had a potential mega fight with Oscar at 154 there in 2007. Sort of similiar to Bradley and Khan thing, Bradley knew he had the Pac fight as a serious option. We'd have to ask Floyd though. Floyd still has a really good/solid resume, and is around the Top 30 ATG to me, same as Manny.

            You sound ****in ****** and obviously not a true boxing fan... I'm so sick of PAC fans coming into these threads. Everyone that PAC fought beyond jmm has been past their prime besides a slow David Diaz, and his current opponent Tim Bradley. So stop the ****ing comparisons. Whats sad is PAC became well known only after he fought everyone that Floyd had already beaten. So if Floyd hasn't really fought anyone....who in the hell has PAC fought..... U lames come in these threads not having a bit of information, you became a fan of boxing when PAC became popular which means you don't know ****!!!!

              Floyd faced a lot of mediocre and NON top tier opposition compared to Manny
