    Well that is the same thing Wlad is doing. Fighting BS mandatory fights. And we already know Wlad has a glass jaw. HBO didn't control who his Mandatory was. I don't know why the IBF keeps feeding Wlad tomato Mandatory fights. I mean its a disgrace that Thompson was a Mandatory.

    HBO was hyping Wlad Klitschko too at one point until Sanders and Brewster exposed him.

    i'll agree with michael grant....but the rest are legit fighters.

    jt represented the u.s. in the olympics. he didn't beat bhop with hype that was a fight.

    naseem hamed was really knocking mutha****as out. no hype.

    andre berto is legit. he was a standout amateur and has had some decent wins as a pro.

    arreolla is what he is...a hardnosed mexican who comes to fight. i don't think anyone claimed he was the best.

    u made a shitty list.

    hatton and pacquaio should be on there along with the klits.
