ODLH or Hatton?... Possible future opponents for Pac?

[TitoFan]

Maybe it's just me, but I thought boxing was doing just fine with its mega-fights as of late between fighters of the same size and weight. We've had the Pavlik-Taylors, Pavlik-Mirandas, Cotto-Judahs, Cotto-Mosleys, Pac-Marquezes, etc, etc.

Why all the fascination with pitting fighters of such different weights? I kinda miss the old days of the sport, when we didn't have to resort to gimmicks to be excited about boxing.

My advice? Let’s stop fantasizing about the Pacs vs the DLHs, the Pavliks vs the Klitschkos, the Hattons vs the Calzaghes, blah, blah, blah… and let’s enjoy the classics we’ve been having lately on their own merits.
