    Hopkins was beating people by outboxing them not knocking them out or based on athletic ability he's a ring genius. Seriously I thought you could come with a better argument than that. Hopkins is a defensive counter puncher his style is better suited when going up in weight than Pac's. Which is the reason why Pac raised a lot of red flags.

    Of course...because he cant come straight out and say manny is dirty, that makes him look bad as well.

    simpler than that, he knew pac felt his loss to morales was down to being weakened by blood testing too close to the fight.

    I want Floyd to fight more black fighters, as I believe they can beat him. It's just that we seem to be taught different boxing styles based on where youre from.

    - Shane Mosley TKO's Margarito on January, 2009. (Margarito looking lost in the fight knew he was guilty)

    - Shane Mosley fights Mayweather on May, 2010.

    People forget that Mosley hasn't fought for almost 14 months before the Mayweather fight. :deal
    Atleast with the Pacquiao fight, Mosley had no ring rust and fought Mayweather & Mora before the Pacquiao fight.

    No , it raised flags because he is not American. No other countries felt the same.

    Typical , just like in the Olympics. China kick your ass in the pool and their swimmers are on steroids , the week after America kicks ass and its talent!!

    The arrogance is beyond belief.

    Shite you all think your basketball players are the best athletes in the world.

    Blinkered.

    Guerrero and now Maidana, that makes 2....and being that all these guys are Haymon fighters its even more clear Floyd does not need Pacquiao. What does Top Rank have left in his stable for Pac, Marquez 5, Bradley 3 ??? And also how many guys on the list would be favored to beat Mayweather? How many would be favored to beat Manny?
