    So what you are saying is you would rather them feast on left-overs, shot fighters, and has-beens? Any of those guys mentioned would put on a better show than the opponents these guys have recently faced.
    Hell, I think Mosely's shoes are still on fire from all the running he did. Back in the day, Mosely was a great fighter. It would have been nice to see him face Pac or Floyd when he was in his prime.

    His boxing IQ has been exposed, leave the young one alone he is either a little kid, (that doesn't know any better) or full on ****** (that doesn't know any better either) taking apart his arguments would be cruel, please don't be a bully.:good

    Floyd is the only one who hasn't faced a shot fighter or has-been in his last 10 fights, and that was only Ortiz. Watch the fights and don't just look at Boxrec.

    cotto wasnt prime. he was still a damm good fighter though and an excellent win. clottey not so much. clottey was closer to prime but always rubbish.

    margarito and cotto would both whoop ortiz though

    Hatton is getting underrated because he lost to the 2 best boxers of the last decade.

    Maybe so. And Marquez IS number one at a LOWER WEIGHT. Wouldn't the point be that they weren't fighting at their best weights in these fights? And what Hatton was Prime is not relevant to the past few years is it?

    Marquez was a good 2 weight classes removed. Oscar was shot. At least that is what he is saying now.... But, nice try at the classic ESB misdirection post. :good

    Does it matter that Hatton weighed more than Floyd the night of the fight
