It doesn't equate for the past. But for most people its recent.

See I agree with you.

But Mayweather beats Gatti its

cmon who really thought Gatti would win .

Mayweather beats Judah its

Judah lost to Baldomir.

And you said every fighter has an off night and I could say that same thing about Judah against Baldomir but then it would be taking away from Carlos' accomplishment.

Fact is, Floyd beat a focused Judah and he did it the right way.

But like I said, to the average boxing fan who saw Judah get beaten by Baldomir they aren't going to give props.


Contrast that to the average boxing fan watching Mitchell on the comeback, tszyu destroy him, then Hatton beat Tszyu.

Then watch Maussa beat Vivian Harris, and then see Hatton knock out Maussa.

Thats why the lately and people hold it higher. And yes it is a problem.
