    Kevin Iole-Yahoo Boxing's main expert has said from time to time that a 125 ish pound boxer should not be considered a pound for pound candidate-guess his readers disagree!

    So true JMM unloaded on him 3 times in one round last fight and while he stumbled a little he kept going foward dido Morales-most guys would have surely benn down.

    I actually rewatched the fight last night and had it a draw. Before I had Marq winning.

    Floyd will still be the pound for pound best. But the fact that many respected boxing fans and writers talk about pacs. means he comes closed second pound for pound best to them.

    He isn't going to fight Cotto this year.....that's why I want to slap him. He is already scheduled to take on DLH in September.

    Would that slap turn into a punch if he followed up De La Hoya with another Hatton fight?

    I wouldn't even waste more thought on it.....

    As a matter of fact, I am putting more thought into my new avatar than Mayweather currently.

    Don't get me wrong, I am a fan of his ability in the ring. But I can't think of a real reason not to fight Cotto right now. If you're gonna say "You're fighting for legacy" well then, fight the top fighter on list.

    Those are my thoughts. There's simply no reason not to fight Cotto. If Floyd's a true champion, I trust he'll step it up.

    Any ideas on the new avatar? Boxing related? Wife related?

    Fuk Hatton II. I would rather see Floyd fight Clottey. At least we havent seen that one yet.

    If floyd fights Hatton He should just go ahead and retire, and not even waste own time. Hatton was outclassed, no one outside of a few hatton fans and floyds accountants want to see that fight again.

    I want to do both actually.....since it seems to be my calling card for better or worse, I don't want to deviate from Mrs. KG. I would love to put her in a pair of boxing gloves and a nice bikini for a good shot.

    I have some old pics of her, but in all honesty, it's hard to find pics of her where she isn't at least topless and while the Lounge seems to be cool with that, the general forum is a different place.

    If he indeed fights Hatton in 2009 and still doesn't bring up Cotto as a worthy opponent, I think it's safe to say he'd be the P4P kind of ducking high risk fights.

    Not that he hasn't faced real challenges in the past, because he has. But another Hatton fight would be bordering on just plain ridiculous. It would be blatantly obvious that he's avoiding Cotto.
