Why no hateful threads about B-Hop's tune up?

I wouldn't be surprised if Floyd indeed does :!:

 

Can't argue with that. He would clearly be the favorite against most guys out there. Only one I THINK Mayweather can go in as the underdog against is Paul WIlliams.

 

Agree... specially if Floyd fights Paul Williams at 160 (or specifically fight the winner of Pavlik-Williams at 160)...

Great champs challenged themselves by jumping 2 weight divisions for a fight like JMM from 135 to 144, Pacquiao from 135 to 147...

Floyd if he's great the way he claimed he is, should challenge himself by moving from 147 to 160 for a fight...
.

 

Void wants to fight a flyweight next.

 

Well if Floyd does not want to challenge himself by moving from 147 to 160, it's no problem with me...

I know one great fighter moving over the years from 106 lbs. to 147, that's ****ing 41 lbs. movement...
.

 

When that great fighter was moving over the years from 106 to 147, he captured titles in 6 different weight divisions - 112, 122, 126, 130, 135 and 140... That great fighter is about to capture another title in his 7th different weight divisions and if successful, he will be the only boxer with titles in 7 different weight divisions...

That great fighter also has 4 lineal titles (the man who beat the man who beat the man) at 112, 126, 130 and 140... He's the only boxer with 4 lineal titles achieved...

That's how great this fighter is...
.

 

you really cant deny that manny is doing some amazing stuff. and he is doing it with class.

 

Ever heard of Roberto Duran?
Now that's a genuine all time great!
But wait, he has losses in his resume....so, no? :!:

 

I think its abundantly clear that you have the irrational hatred of Hopkins.

Tarver was not past his best, he had knocked out Roy Jones, beat him on points and beat glen johnson on points in 3 of his last 4 fights.

He doesnt accept he was beaten by Calzaghe because he doesnt think he was and many fans agree with him, as does one judge, the associated press, dan rafael of espn, kevin iole of yahoo, one setananta commentator, all three bbc radio 5 live judges, carl froch. So why should he believe something that he doesnt, just because you do? YOU are the one who has to accept that people believe hopkins won, bernard only tells us his opinion not try to force it on others, i suppose due to the fact that he has a case that makes calzaghe fans uncomfortable, who try to diss hopkins every chance they get.

Pavlik ripe for the picking? ok we can judge that when his career is said and done.

and whats wrong with hopkins taking a tune up against a fighter with a decent record, when hopkins will be 45 in january, and he hasnt fought in a year, there is no problem in that, if you can see through your irrational hatred you can see that it is a privelage to watch bhop fight at the top level at this age.

lets list his last 5 fights: j taylor twice, tarver, calzaghe, pavlik

he either won or was very competive in all those fights, and some believe he won all, so whether you think he did or didnt, thats not bad at all

 

:good

 

:good:good thumbsup That Floydette stopped right there... He knew Floyd can't top what PAC did...

 

1. He's old as the hills, whereas Mayweather is roughly at his physical peak.

2. It's on a free tv, not $50 ppv.

3. It's a tune up for a bigger bout, not being passed off as a big bout.

Seriously, if this was on HBO PPV with a 24/7 series then people would be fuming, but it's not, so chill out. Back in the day top fighters used to take keep busy fights against journeymen all the time.
