    And your ***** ass is too much of a ***** to ever make a pick. I'm tired of that I don't hate PBF just his fans bull****.

    I was a Margarito fan before Mayweahter ran from him. You got into boxingnot too long ago due to your love for Floyd, so don't talk to me about hype jobs *****. You're a johnny-come-lately to floyd;s career. I was cheering him before you got out of high school pimple.

    I make picks when I am confident of them. YOU admittied to picking against Margarito because you hate him. What an *******...:patsch

    I was ****ing around in the Zab-Margo. I picked Williams to beat Margo because I knew Margo was a hype job and I can spot a mismatch when I see one unlike your dumb nuthugging ass.:hi:

    No, you don't seem to understand, or more likely, don't choose to understand the difference.

    PBF has ONLY fought guys that fit my 5-point profile since moving from 135. You're picking ONE example from Pac's career (nobody with any knowledge - no one - tries to claim Pac ducks anybody), and TWO examples from Hatton's career.

    There is no 140+ lb. Tszyu, or any equivalent, on PBF's ledger -- that's not an accident. Was Tszyu old? He may have been, but you certainly couldn't tell that from the ass-whipping he put on Mitchell in his previous fight. Not only was Tszyu 'a' threat to Hatton, he was 'the' threat. And Hatton took the challenge. Then Hatton thought he was going to fight fraudulent Vivian Harris, but Maussa took care of that.

    And when Hatton moved up, he moved up to fight a guy in his prime (25) who was a real threat (27 wins in 28 fights), not a 34-year-old aging wanna-be singer who fades in the later rounds and hasn't looked legit for years.

    Witter? Oh, the guy who got smoked by Zab? That guy? The guy who struggled to beat some Ukranian fighting out of Germany not named Klitschko for something called the 'EBU' belt?

    Yeah, I'm sure the guy who beat Tszyu - who had DESTROYED Judah in 2 - is real worried about a guy who got, um, PWNED against Judah. That's the guy you're talking about, right? LOL!!!! :rofl:lol::lol::rofl

    Gatti? Sure, when you're fighting legends like Tszyu and prime guys like Collazo, every now and then you want a golden goose. Againk, the difference is that this is the exception for Hatton and the rule for PBF. And Hatton never made the fight.

    PBF sees Hatton as the weakest link between SSM (let him age another year or two and then PBF can feel safe), Cotto (a little too big, busy and in-his-prime for PBF's taste - although I think PBF would beat him), and Williams (the guy who beat the guy PBF wanted NO part of has to be scary). It's pretty simple. And Hatton will bring in fans, unlike a Spinks (who, after his good showing against Taylor probably scared off PBF). To tell you the truth, the natural fight for PBF would be Malignanni - he's smaller with no power, a perfect fit for PBF. But that's at 140 and no one would care.

    No, Hatton (at 147) is the easiest choice for PBF between viable fighters. PBF should be nicknamed 'electricity,' because since he moved from 135, you can be sure he will take the path of least resistance. He doesn't want a challenge, he wants a cherrypick, and a cherrypick he can gravy-train off of because no one likes PBF's potshotting style.

    Once Hatton struggled with Collazo, it was only a matter of time before PBF made this fight. At 147. Like Vitali either KO's people or gets injured, this is what the post-135 PBF does. No surprises - you know what's coming. And that's why many can't place him at the tops of their p-4-p lists: We all know the con, the scam. Nobody's fooled, nobody's buying the hype. Just another day for Mr. "Electricity," who has seemed to learn better from RJJ than Anakin did from Obi-wan and Sidious combined.

    Here's the difference b/n Hatton and PBF in a nutshell -- PBF is picking what he thinks is the easiest guy in Hatton and making him fight at a weight he struggled at; Hatton, conversely, is fighting the 'hardest' guy he can fight and is moving up to a weight he sucked at to challenge that guy. One guy is cherrypicking, the other guy is taking a challenge by moving up to face the 'great' PBF.

    Hope that helps make things clearer for you.

    Kostya was what? 35 when he fought Hatton? and hatton was what? 24? give me a break you act like he beat a prime Kostya. And Castillo wasnt completely shot??? He BARELY beat that bum in his first fight at junior welter and he could barely even stand up straight in the Hatton fight.. How WASNT he completely shot?

    Read again, this time slower and go over the part about Tszyu destroying Mitchell and showing ZERO signs of slowing down before he fought Hatton. NOBODY can try to compare that with a DLH who fights about as often as Charles Barkley dunks these last few years.

    Ok so you're pretty much saying Kostya is better then Delahoya?? Floyd MOVED UP to 154 lbs to fight Delahoya.. Do you think Hatton would move to 154 and even have a chance right now?? Yes or no? :huh

    Sorry *******...you pick everyone against Margarito because you're an irrational idiot who hates MArgarito just for wanting to fight your hero.

    That fight won't happen for at least another year. Mosley is still too dangerous for PBF. By Cotto and SSM fighting, PBF gets to have one of his 'phobias' removed, much as Williams removed Margarito.

    Mosley will win, and PBF will likely rematch ODLH or fight Malignanni until SSM has a little less left on the tires. Perhaps when Shane is 36+, PBF will meet the 'challenge' of SSM.

    Yes Mosley is, I think he would be the toughest WW for Floyd. I still pick Floyd by UD.

    No, invalid question. I don't answer crap like that.

    What I'm saying is that a 35 (the age you used) year old Tszyu was UNBELIEVABLY better, p-4-p, than the old, who-gives-a-f*ck-I-got-mad-$$$$ DLH that PBF fought. Why? Because Tszyu wasn't in semi-retirement, he wasn't 2-2 (could have been 1-3) in his last 4 fights, and he had shown ZERO -> Z-E-R-O - signs of slowing down or losing his edge. The Tszyu that obliterated Mitchell looked phenomenal. That's the Tszyu that Hatton challenged.

    DLH was a fat lottery winner against Strum. He got KO'd by Hopkins. He lost (although I thought he won) against SSM. And he faced a no-skills, Tito-ruined-him Mayorga.

    There is absolutely no comparison between the two fighters Hatton and PBF chose to fight, particularly going into their choices to fight them.

    Your argument is about as strong as a twig with Dumbo the Elephant standing on it. Save the wannabe "Jedi Mind Trick," joke arguments for someone ignorant enough not to be able to poke holes in them.
