    If you were a boxer with a record of 40-0-0 (35) would you rather be domanating but be acaused of fighting a bunch of no bodys or would you rather be involved in a bunch of split decision fights which could have gone eather way also you would be acused of being luckey and the benifit of bad judgeing. Which would you chose?

    Depends on how much money I have and what my health is.

    Oh yeah, and:

    De La Hoya > Calzaghe

    Depends.

    If I was 40-0 and had world titles, then that one.
    If I was 40-0, and was still fighting regional 4 rounders, then not that one.

    I think this guy is talking about Hatton and the other guy is supposed to mayweather. But ONE split decision fight is not a bunch...Or Calzaghe. Same difference. The fighter fighting the high quality opponent always wins that battle.

    I forgot to add the money and number of tittles are the same.
    As for health you would have no permit injuries.

    I would like everyone to know that i had balls and fought with the best even though i did not win all of them than be 40-0-0 and have people say that there are still like 5 guys at my level who i should still fight. I wouldnt want ppl calling me a chicken like some in the sport.

    Being greedy, I'd rather have both.

    After he dispenses with Ricky, Floyd (not my favourite boxer) would be the closest thing to both. If he stays on to fight Mosley, Cotto and Williams and wins, then retires, he could pull it off.

    But I expect he will fight until defeated. Most of those guys do.

    RJJ had it in the bag had he retired after Ruiz. But...

    Joe Calzaghe has a shot at it depending on what he does if he gets past Kessler. So does Taylor.

    To answer the thread, I would rather have faced the best, even if not always successfully.

    That puts Oscar high on my list.

    I'd want to take the toughest fights I could and do my very best to give everyone I came against hell.

    the former. it's better to dominate average boxers that being given gift decisions against some of the name fighters IMO
