...........If Margarito fights Oscar & get's his a** handed to him then many would say that Margarito had an off day!


...........Or if Jermain Taylor beats everyone at middleweight many will say, Well why won't he beat the fighters at supermiddle! Cuz actually they will never be satisfied, once you dislike a fighter nothing can make you change your mind no matter how good the fighter does!!!!!

"What will it all prove? Who would really be satisfied?" INO it would just bring more hating to boxing"
while I may love B-HOP as a fighter after those and the Winky fight I gained tremendous respect for Taylor....He was very gracious and when talking to larry merchant he said"Ain't it always something" and I couldn't agree more...while I may not agree with the officiating I respect the man....He didn't judge those fights....he just fought in them...and If PBF went up to 154(which I think is way too much for him) I wouldn't hate because as an informed boxer I would know that it was too much...but hatton? well......
Yeah, I'm with you on Hatton--I don't see why reacting that way would be unfair. Look at his record. Seriously. Tszyu is the only good fighter he's beaten, and Tszyu was 35 years old, had fought once in the last 2 1/2 years, and had an injured shoulder. Losing to Colazzo was enough to convince me not to put too much weight on his one earlier fight against a good fighter. If he loses convincingly against someone, it's fair to discount the Kostya fight even more.
