Euros taking over the welterweight division???

So, him being highly touted is unjust?

 

How is it weak??? You do not believe that they can at least be competitive with the best in the div.?

 

Euros is short for European.

 

He's not proven himself against even stiff British opposition, let alone a top European fighter. He was down against Karl David and gets tagged too much against the current opposition. Leaves his chin in the air when pulling back and has a few flaws that need sorting out.

 

But a lot of those fighters are maybe on their way out. Pac looks to be retiring soon; PBF might be too; Mosley is getting up there in age; Cotto is kind of a question mark. I think the div. is ripe for a European takeover of sorts. It cannot be denied that these fighters I listed are starting to make some waves in the div.

 

You think Jan Zaveck is average, really?

 

Zaveck and Jackiewicz are both older than Pac and PBF.

 

What about outside of those three? I think we all know May, Pac, and Mosley wouldn't even consider fighting the guys I mentioned. But, what if the winner of Berto-Quintana ends up giving Aydin a shot at the WBC belt? You don't think Aydin can win?

 

So, it would be fair to say you don't think much of this performance?

And how old is Hopkins??? That's beside the point. Floyd has already retired once and Roach is saying that Manny could possibly retire. I haven't heard such rumblings from Zaveck and Jackiewicz. They could be late bloomers so-to-speak like Calzaghe. (I am NOT saying they are as good as Calzaghe--for the idiots who would read into that statement).
