Judah's not in the top five because he's lost to Baldomir, Mayweather and Cotto...and because Cotto knocked him out (and Mayweather might have)....
"noteworthy" is a different context than what some other people are arguing. I think a win over Margarito means more than Hatton. I also...
I didnt say Whitaker didn't, or that Chavez did. But Whitaker, himself, wasn't a very big welterweight (or a junior middleweight)...he was in...
Whitaker was shorter than Chavez...and Mayweather.
Which is why you won't see Hatton going up to 154 or 160...he might not even come back to 147 (unless Oscar comes calling).
Hatton wasn't new to the divsion...he'd already shown he was going to struggle...as he did with a marginal top 10 fighter in Collazo.
I think you're using the wrong Hitman for your example. If we're judging how impressive a win over Ricky Hatton at 147 is, perhaps it's best to...
It's funny how much is being made of beating Hatton, when he had in fact one fight at 147...and barely scraped by (against a fighter who was...
I don't know, Linares is still young and a bit untested but he would have a huge size advantage in the fight. Given that size advantage, I think...
Well, Mayweather's now pulled this retirement card like three consecutive fights.
I think Cortez was pissed off at Graham for popping off in the dressing room. :lol:
It's funny then that this torch-bearer of the sport now says he's "bored" with boxing and wants to go into semi-retirement. The person who...
Perhaps fighters change in their mid-30's. Hopkins was 36 (a year older than Calzaghe is now) when he fought in the middleweight tournament...
Steve Kim: "With the latest Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. pay-per-view show doing much better than expected - around 70,000 buys - it's clear that Top...
Duddy's gonna live like he was dying.
I remember you being pretty certain (if not emphatic, at times) that Hatton was a stiffer test for Mayweather than Cotto would be, but when I...
I'm not sure you ever said he beats Cotto, but you came pretty close to it as I recall...and I consistently stated I thought Cotto was better than...
Yeah, last night was definitely one of those fights that crossed over into becoming event. Yesterday I had the Marquette-Wisconsin game on in...
So, you now think that Cotto would beat Hatton? You seemed pretty certain of the opposite in the months before the night. Since you asked...
Well, it is nice when a fighter in a very loaded division can look south for a challenger...beat him...and then declare himself "bored" with the...
That's not what my "No Fear" sticker says on the back of my truck.
I agree it doesn't belong on this list, though the ending was great...which is why it should be among the candidates for Knockout of the Year.
Some good comments towards each other, but the "bored" comment is a bit convenient considering how stacked 147 has become.
So, you're declaring Mayweather as untouchable by Miguel Cotto, Paul Williams, Antonio Margarito, Vernon Forrest et al? I sitll think you...
Maybe it has something to do with the war of 1812. :lol:
It is also noteworthy considering that three of them lost their "O's" in their losses...and yet the "least" accomplished of the three was Kessler,...
Yep, especially if you have East Coast feeds for HBO and Showtime.
Debuting middleweight Daniel Jacobs (1-0) needed just 29 seconds to TKO Jose Hurtado (1-2, 1 KOs) with a monster left hook.

KO 1...not much of a round-by-round. :lol:
