    Fans and their "weight" excuse

    DLH losing to Hopkins
    Tito losing to Hopkins
    Morales losing to Raheem...

    if these fighters didnt use that excuse, why are the fans

    And on the contrary, can Ruiz say "RJJ is the naturally lighter and faster fighter." Weight advantage? Nope... excuses like these are one way streets.

    But this argument should work the other way....

    Castillo is naturally bigger than the weight class he fights at. As well as Margarito. This gives them a heavy advantage. Both fights, Castillo ate a lot of punches from Mayweather. A fighter his at Floyds weight naturally would have been dazed at least, not Castillo.

    I also heard Daniel Santos, who beat Margarito, is HUGE when he's not in the ring. The guy's also 6 feet...

    PS: There is a good argument for DLH, but if Roger Mayweather thought DLH could compete at the higher weight classes, who am I to question that?

        Sorry for hi*******...but that signature is a classic example of "0wned.."


        But to get back on subject.
        When a fighter is heavier than another fighter he's usually stronger than him as well..

              I like where Barrera lands a Tarver... coming up with a wicked left hook like Tarver did to TKO Jones not really seeing the boxer's head.

                DLH took a dive against hopkins. he just wanted his paycheck and a vacation.
                tito could never handle guys with jabs.
                likewise for morales.
                corrales just got caught with a helluva left hook. weak chin + awesome left hook = knockout.

                these fighters didnt lose cuz of weight. they lost cuz of what the other fighters did. DLH dived, hopkins jabbed, raheem jabbed, and castillo brought the punch. weight did NOT factor into any of these fights.

                but as previously stated, these fighters gave no excuses. so their fans have no position to make excuses for the fighters that lost.

                  #1 thats pure bull**** that de la hoya took a dive, hopkins just caught him with a hard liver shot & he couldnt get up.
                  & #2 anyone would have been knocked out with the left hook castillo threw at corrales, its got nothing to do with him having a weak chin, how the **** can ppl say he has a weak chin after the punishment he took in the 1st fight???

                    The first fight took 100x more out of Corrales than it took out of Castillo.
