    Clearly I am saying, not so good with the english am i.
    I mean which fighters today that are in the upper tiers of their weightclass(es) are most willing to fight anyone.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    AHHH Got ya now....Misunderstood...My mistake....

    A few in my opp are

    David Haye.....So he says and yet has been proved otherwise...even if some of the decisions might not be healthy for him..

    Vitaly Klitschko....One of those unhealthy guys Haye is willing to fight

    Ricky Hatton....I think he proved that already when he pursued PBF...regardless of how it turned out he looked for the best opp out there

    Shane Mosley...Though he is not a champion he has made quite a run as of late...Cotto, Mayorga, and now Margarito....Though Shane has always been willing to fight whoever will step in the ring

    Israel Vazquez...I think this guy would fight a HW in a phone booth

    IMO there's a difference between willingness to fight anyone and looking for a free ashot at the top. Ricky had nothing to lose fighting the p4p no.1 and everything to gain. Similar with Haye, willing to fight the Klits, but not willing to risk that opportunity against other risky contenders.

    That's a bit harsh On Haye, Bomp.

    He's always pursued the best. He's been fast-tracked to the Klits because the division is so boringly shit.

    Recently Adam Booth said they were about 12 months ahead of where they expected to be
    3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.

    Regardless of how much either has to gain or lose they still are the ones who seek them out...They can make a bank roll fighting the one or in Hayes case 2 guys that can do the most damage to their careers

    OR

    They can fight some lesser guys at slightly less money in walkover bouts

    They choose the hard road....IMO shows they will fight anyone....

    Though the question mark in still in the air for many about Hatton not fighting Witter after being called out soo many times

    I think Williams deserves more credit than Tony, Williams called out Pavlik when he was still unbeaten then jumps 2 weight divisions to fight, and Santos called out Tony but I haven't heard Tony mention moving up, maybe dosent like it when he's not the bigger guy....

    as for Hatton he wasn't to willing to give Collazo a much deserved rematch...
    Haye I think would fight anyone in fairness to him, Evander even though he's not a top guy anymore, I think would top the list
