    REED Still HASN'T Gotten Over the KO's, Particularly the 1st One...REED's STILL Mourning...

    To this Very Day,the Mere SIGHT of Antonio Tarver DISTURBS REED...He's "The Boogeyman"...The Sight of Roy's Eye's CROSSING (as that Left Hook Lands)TURNS REED's Stomach...

    A Piece of REED's Boxing Fandom DIED that Night, No Doubt...REED's Boxing VIRGINITY was TAKEN w/Out Permission, Vaseline or Prophylactic...& the Shit HURT...

    "Objectivity" was VIOLENTLY Beaten N 2 REED...

    REED'll NEVER B the Same Again....& REED Most Certainly will NEVER Looooooooooooove to that EXTREME Again...

    if anyone would concede terms for a fight, its Ricky Hatton. The dude had everything Calzaghe dreams about and basically told warren to fuck off so that he could fight in vegas in boxing's mecca.

    The guy will take 40-60 or worse IMO, but I get the feeling he's gonna want it at 140, although Floyd won't have any trouble making it, we'll see what happens.

    Why would Floyd fight Hatton at 140? Been there, done that.

    Plus, Floyd's got belts at 147 & 154.

    Let Hatton fight for the 147 title.

    no, and regardless of the actual reasons for why these statements were said, there certainly is a trend of someone "sticking to their guns." How many of the black posters on here wouldn't call themselves Floyd/Roy fans, and how man of the Puerto Ricans would say they aren't Tito fans.

    There is bias and cross bias, even if its unsaid. There are continuous exceptions to everything, but I'll bet my left nut that every Marciano lover on the board is white, and that every RJJ nuthugger is black, its just the nature of the beast.

    Yeah I don't see Floyd going back down to 140 either.

    Especially since he just moved up another weight class to 154 and beat Oscar with Oscar calling the shots on the gloves and everything.

    He's probably thinking "why should I make concessions again?"

    Because he bypassed the perceived real champions at 140, something his legacy will be hindered by. Floyd can get a title fight at any division, AND he's got the body to make 140, its not like it'd take a toll.

    Hatton would probably agree to some kind of catchweight, plus its the two lineal titlists from 140-147, it would be a huge event.

    seriously though whatd he weigh in at 149?...it would not be hard for him to make 140 or some kind of catchweight if this comes off.

    Weight isn't a concession Mayweather needs to make. Why would he be interested in an IBO 140 title?

    The only thing the DLH fight did is give a Floyd a blueprint as to the concessions he'll try to impose on his opponents.

    Floyd wasn't business savvy or smart enough to figure these kinda things out before so he'll try to turn the table on his future opponents...assuming he comes out of retirement that is.

    What legacy does Hatton have? Beating a guy Floyd beat twice five years ago?

    That's Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaar from the Truth...

    There was PLENTY of NON-Black Members of PLANET ROY...Probably as Many as HALF were Non-Black...

    Believe it or Not,Roy even had Black HATERS...

    which 5 people are the biggest RJJ nuthuggers on the board?

    how many are white.

    which 5 are the biggest hatton nuthuggers?

    how many are black.

    there are racial lines, even if its subliminal and unconscious

    TERRIBLE argument.

    We aren't comparing Hatton's and Floyd's legacy, simply stating that Floyd's will be viewed as one that by-passed the biggest threats at 140

    Beating the true champ @ 140, where Floyd fought a weaker titlist.

    He did a great job punching those gloves that Oscar picked out ...
    He seemed to be more angry at Oscars gloves then he was at Oscar ... :dunno:

    I agree with REED here, Roy had plenty of white fans. I'd say you're right about Hatton though, I don't think I've seen any black Hatton fan.

    Why would that be an issue? It's not an issue for Mosley.

    Floyd was THE champ at 135 & 147. He was also considered the best at 130 and beat the #2 or #3 (depedning on how you had Corrales ranked) guy at 130.

    That's more than Hatton can say.

    Hatton picking up a title from Collazo is less impressive (performance wise and historically) than Floyd's win over Gatti.

    but seriously who are the loudest and proudest Roy nuthggers on this board.

    Sly, Reed, Musze, bigdawg...

    nobody else on this board would say Roy is the GOAT, I hope

    you can't defend a guy thats the best in the game (clearly) by pointing out the flaws of a proposed dangerous opponent. There is no bigger fight right now than Floyd/Hatton.

    This isn't a baldomir or margarito debate where Floyd had more reason to fight Carlos, its either Hatton or Mosley or maybe a rematch with Oscar.

    Anyone else, and he really is ducking who he should be fighting.

    Apart from Bigdawg, I think they all rank Ali as the GOAT.

    REED Agrees w/U about Racial Lines...

    That's OBVIOUS...

    It's Nationalistic,as Well (to a Lesser Degree)...

    Most Hatton HUGGERS R White Euro's...Of the White Hatton DETRACTORS,Most R American...

    Admittedly, REED Doesn't Know of any Black "Fans" of Hatton,but Most Brothers like Watching him...But No Doubt,If/When Floyd-Hatton is Signed, 99.99999% of the Brothers on this Site will Probably Root for Floyd...

    Similar to Floyd,REED COULDN'T Tell U Who's the # 2 or # 3 Roy Nuthugger...Cause "When U're # 1,U Don't even Look Back" - Floyd Mayweather

    "Like I Said Before",REED is the "Roy Jones" of Roy Jones Nuthuggers...
