    The fight wasn't exciting but I think some people are going overboard.

    He shows he's human against Zab, he gets criticized.
    He pitches a shutout against Baldomir, he gets criticized.

    I say **** what they say, he's the best of the best.
    he can't win for losing. i wouldn't want to fight no more either. Just think if you went to work everyday and worked overtime every week and done everything they asked of you and more, but you don't get employee of the month. You'd be like What da ****!

      .

      He ahs already defeated castillo twice. i don't think there will be much difference in the third. Hatton will never fight him, it's always next every year when it comes to fighting Floyd, and margarito is know different than Baldomir skill wise. he is slow and can't move laterally, and his punches are even more telegraphed and looping than Baldomir. you think he really has chance?
      Cotto I don't think so, the only one is Winky...

        and winky just walks straight forward tryna stick you with a stiff jab... mayweather is not gonna be there for the jab

        plus i see alotta yall talking about 157.... How many weight classes do yall want this guy to move up? yall want him to jus keep going up and up until its eventually just to much to handle?

        basically

          Well u know they say a good jab neutralizes speed, and Winky defense is no slouch as well, but foks would prolly call the fight boring anyways.

                    and the fact in the ring we saw a welterweight beating a big middleweight...

                      Baldomier may have weighed more in the ring, but the size differnce didn't look noticable.
