    That doesn't make any sense, they're not fighting.
    That's like saying who would you rather watch, Klitchko Vs. Lewis, or Jermaine Taylor Vs. Jose Santa Cruz. The fight will never happen.

    Plus the fight wouldn't be boring. Styles make fights. Spinks isn't bigger than Floyd by 20 pounds, so he'd be beat senseless, like he did Gatti

    I respect floyd for decisively beating most people he steps in the ring with, but there is a fine line between the "sweet science" and running. I do consider myself a boxing fan, but i like to watch fights when people FIGHT. Yea he's good at what he does, and he does win, but he doesn't fight. And i know all his fans are going to say i don't know good boxing or whatever, but i like to see fights when people fight. He is boring...effective, but boring.

    But that's what I'm trying to point out. Your're baseing that on his past 2 fights, when the fighters were much bigger than he was. Oscar looked 20 pounds heavier than he did. but before that, he was whopping ass, and he was fighting

    Dont have to like PBF to respect him but CANNOT do that, until he fights the best opp, something he hasnt done in ANY division he's been in. He has the opportunity to make up most of that ground at 47, if he so chooses, it's time for his legacy to be defined and a huge waste if the attempt isnt made.

    As for style?? He's a boxer and there will always be diffrent style's. Greatness is defined by victories over quality opposition of various styles. I care less about style than I do about a championship attitude.

    To this point, Floyds been lacking:good

    You make a good point Dog, but i think it has already been pointed out in those terms. But a good point is well worth repeating:good

    No one made PBf move up in weight, that was his own doing and we allknow he aint no 54 fighter. He did that for the DLH payday and is now at 47 again. If he's concerned about size??? fight Hatton at 40:lol:

    He has fought quality. Hernandez, Manfredy, Corrales, Castillo...and Oscar wasn't quality. Not just for the payday, he's been calling him out since he was at 135

    No, he's not a 54 pounder, but he's wanted DLH all his career, so he made that sacrifice to fight him. but now he's a 147, and Hatton can bump up to 147 like he did in the past.

    Dude, take Manteddy out of that equation, he's a turd. Replace that with Judah and you have the five best opponents on his record.

    The problem is, Floyd's avoided tougher opposition at every weight

    30 Casamayor

    35 Spadafora(who beat floyd bad in the gym)

    40 Hatton/Tszyu

    47 Margarito/SSM/Cotto

    Floyd has cherry picked his way through every division, now he can put an end to that **** and make up for it at 47, if he so chooses. I hope for him, his fans, and the sport that he has the balls to do it.

    If you dont know, I cant stand PBF, but can respect ACTIONS. Still wouldnt like him, but would have proper respect if he does and even if he LOSES.

    25 mil is hardly a sacrifice:lol: It was also another title in another weight class, which floyd loves to talk about. Still not a real championship as floyds had only two of those at 30 and 47. We are awaiting PBF's first defense of that 47 title.

    I dont care what weight he fights Hatton at, though it should have happened at 40 since Hatton was CHAMP and Floyd wasnt:good Size wont be an issue between PBF and Hatton, like it would/could be with PBF vs Margarito.

    If Floyd wasn't the real champ at 135 and 154, then who were the real champs?
