Same thing with people talking about Hatton moving up 7 lbs. Well, he feels best at 140 so let him stay there.
Completely agree! Why is not not enough to be known as the best in one division and dominate it for over 10 years? That can mean more than someone who keeps changing weight to pick off the weakest champs in several divisions. Joe is without doubt the best super middle weight in the world and has been for a long time. Why cant people understand that? Hes not a middle weight and hes not a light heavy either so why on earth should he go out of his way to fight people of those weights?
Because when you keep facing bad opponents and mediocre opponents it frustrates people because he has got talent but has wasted his talent on mostly fighting bums or old former world champions he should be getting big fight against Kessler in September but is it going to happen ?? no will he get Kessler Hopkins or Taylor in future ?? probably not and thats what annoys people that right there.
