168 LBS most packed and exciting divison

Dont come in here promoting threads bro.

 

Why not? If you're not interested don't go, but you don't need to tell me what to do.

 

Hopkins was #1 p4p WHEN Taylor fought him.
Winky was top 3 p4p WHEN Taylor fought him.

Your answers are still wrong. I'll tell you when you get it right. The correct answer is staring you in the face.

HOW WAS A B-LEVEL FIGHTER EVEN COMPETITIVE WITH TWO OF THE BEST P4P FIGHTERS OF THE LAST 10 YEARS?

 

atsch Stop lying.

 

This division is super packed, the best 168 fighter just beat Hausler!

 

What am I lying about? Their rankings? Look it up and see for yourself.

Figured out the answer yet?

 

You're constantly leaving out the facts that Hopkins was 41 & he got a gift over Hopkins. You're forgetting that he got a gift by getting a draw with Winky.

 

I haven't left out anything - I'm asking how the fights were even competitive if Taylor is truly a b-level fighter. I didn't say who won or who lost, or whether the decisions were gifts. Just that they were highly competitive fights - which is a true statement.

Hopkins' age is irrelevant, as he is STILL a top 5 p4p fighter.

The answer you've failed see up to this point is that the explanation for how a b-level fighter was able to be competitive with Hopkins and Wright is that TAYLOR IS NOT A B-LEVEL FIGHTER.

 

Lets be frankly. With so few US top-contender in 168, the division will never be recognize as a packed and exciting division.

 

When you're 40 yrs old, its possible for B level fighters to be competitive with you

 

I'm not buying it because of what Hopkins has done since then. Besides Wright was well under 40 when Taylor wa "competitive" with him.

Maybe Hopkins had 2 off nights and Wright had an off night?

 

No, Wright got robbed. And though Hopkins clearly is past his prime, he had a controversial loss in both fights. Taylor got those 2 W's and that draw cause HBO wanted to make him the next big thing

 

If that were the case, that same fighter at 44 wouldn't still be sitting near the top of the p4p rankings.

You're making a fool of yourself.

And saying Winky was robbed? The decision was controversial but not a robbery, and Taylor offered him a rematch. Blame Winky for putting it in cruise control the 12th round because his arrogant ass thought he had it in the bank.

You called Taylor a b-level fighter and the facts show he is not, because if he were he would've been completely outclassed by Hopkins and Wright, but he wasn't.

 

He was outcassed in the rounds that he decided to do his own thing against Winky. In the Hopkins fight, he put up a very good fight with Hopkins, he was very competitive. But he was facing a 41 yr old Hopkins, not the prime Hopkins.
