    what's up with the 'sizzle'?
    you don't sizzle out, you fizzle out.
    sizzle = good, fizzle = bad

    Williams will end up having the best career. He can win a title at 160 or move down and dominate 154. He's a stylistic nightmare with his size, stance, workrate, stamina and chin for anyone 154 and down.

    I see Cotto losing to either Pac or PBF and another big loss like that will ruin him.

    Margo will forever be tarnished with his hand wrap incident not to mention with his style doesn't lend long to lengthy careers.

    Its a difficult question.

    I can see Margo re-establishing himself as the guy everyone loves to hate.

    I can see Cotto losing a few more fights, but still being an established star at the high end of the game.

    Williams is a nearly man, he'll always be well regarded but I don't think he'll ever hit the heights.

    Only the Floydtoys would say a fighter is finished if he loses twice.

    Well, Hatton's lost twice and he's pretty much finished.

    Besides Floyd every top fighter out there has lost. If two losses means your finished than I guess Pac is finished with 3.

    Pretty much every fighter who faces the best fighters out their continuously throughout their career (ie. Mosley, Pac, Cotto, B-Hop) will have a loss on their resume.

    in the past if you were undefeated people would say you hadnt fought anyone now if you have a couple of losses they say you´re finished,no wonder guys like fraud turn into cherrypickers.
