    Fight each other, obviously.

    You can say but it doesn't mean you're right till these guys meet in the ring, people can play "fantasy" matches all they want but answers ONLY come in the ring especially in an unpredictable sport like this one. I bet many people thought Douglas is a tomato can when asked if he can beat Tyson back then, Foreman over Ali, Williams over Quintana, Margarito over Mosley, Pavlik over Hopkins and I can give examples all night.

    In the end it's only your opinion and nothing, could be right or wrong, only a fight will decide.

    nah man even a fight won't decide. It'll always be an opinion. The better fighter doesn't always win just like the better tennis player doesn't always win, and the better football team and the better basketball team and etc. Its all opinions end of story. Nothing can change that. Some opinions are easier to argue than others.

    Excuses are laughed at in the long run unless one fighter is 40 years old in the fight and that's not the case here. A headbutt/cut can play a major role but if all is clean and one fighter is announced then whatever excuse or bull**** theory goes out the window.

    thats not how i see it. Sometimes excuses are bull**** theories and sometimes excuses are legit. to each his own.

    If Frazier can beat Ali who can beat Foreman who can beat Frazier, then that right there is proof that the better fighter doesn't always win.

    Quintana beats Paul Williams... So he is a better fighter. And then Paul Williams knocks him out in 1 round. But how is that possible if Quintana was the better fighter? see what i'm saying.

    You have any clue what you are talking about? Arum did a hell of a job to get Pac to sign the Hatton fight after Pac's island buddies got in his ear about the purse. Arum wasn't being unreasonable in that case, he knew what it took to get the fight signed.

    Yeah, poor Freddie is declining rapidly.

    Ps. all big fights between 2 elites should be 50/50.... whichever guy jeopardizes the fight by asking for more will be the coward in my eyes... make that greedy coward.

    It's Floyd hermit. Arum + Floyd = not a good match to negotiate! Damn, you question me on that with the history between them?:-(

    So, on one hand people dismiss Pac's wins as inferior to Mayweather's but you are saying the opposite so I guess you guys cover it from both sides? :patsch To say size isn't a factor is ******ed and you damned well know it. 7 pounds is a lot at that level.
