two devestating knockouts..i think he is no matter what floyd does with hatton he struggled with the cross dresser...
Pavlik is the NEW MIDDLEWEIGHT CHAMPION of the world....and won it in dominating fashion.....HE SHOULD be fighter of the year....
not Floyd though wheres the upset there :dunno: if Hatton wins he could be foty...but if not then Pavlik all the way :clap: ________ FIX PS3
yes..FLOYD IF..IF he dominates and KO HATTON...if he goes on to win a boring ass yet dominating position...THEN PAVLIK IS FOTY..
that's certainly a possibility. mayweather technically won his 5th division title and if he beats hatton, he beats an unbeaten guy who's a pound for pound calibre. but at the same time, floyd beat a past prime, part-timer in oscar and hatton's not very good at 147. pavlik beat a #1 contender in miranda and dethroned the middleweight champion, both in an emphatic fashion.
I think he's the favorite so far. If Hatton beats Mayweather, he's probably a lock. Kessler will be a legitimate candidate if he beats Calzaghe.
If Floyd BEATS Hatton, he wins "F.O.T.Y." EASILY... It's VERY Likely that Floyd-Hatton will B the 2nd BIGGEST Fight of 2007, Behind Floyd-DeLa... By BEATING Hatton, Floyd will have Gotten a WIN Over THE Most Marketable Fighter Since Tyson or Sugar Ray Leonard AND Rectified his Brief Stay @ 140 lbs N the SAME YEAR... That Speaks VOLUMES... REED ps. What's SAD is that Boxing Writers SEARCH for Reasons to NOT Reward the Consensus "Lb 4 Lb BEST Fighter N the World" on a YEARLY Basis... Roy Got ROBBED Several Years as Well...But the INSTANT he was BEATEN, the Guys that Defeated him were REWARDED... REED
True... Hatton's ALREADY Beaten Castillo N a Fight that ALOT of Fans Thought he'd LOSE... Beating Floyd would B THE Upset of the Year & Worthy of the "Fighter of the Year" Award... REED
word. Actually, Whoever wins that fight is a guaranteed lock. Floyd would have beaten both Hatton and De La Hoya, in the two richest fights of the year or Hatton would have beaten Castillo (with a one punch bodyshot) and more importantly..become the first man to defeat the consensus P4P king! Very difficult to imagine an argument for anyone else outside of these two.
The only way floyd is going to win is by running If hatton has enough speed to land then it's all over for floyd.
