Will Floyd's legacy be complete at 140 with a victory over hatton

[bigtime9]

this has been asked on a number of boards, and I want to see what everyone thinks about this. floyd vs hatton was supposed to go down in 2005 at 140. the ring champ at the time (hatton) did not want to fight the #1 ranked 140lber in floyd. fast forward 2 years and we finally have the fight. so the question is will floyd solidfy his legacy at 140 and exorcise any demons at that weight by beating hatton on december.

[BigReg]

No, they're fighting at 147

[bigtime9]

No, they're fighting at 147


your stating the obvious what you left out was that floyd challenged hatton at 140.

[KO Boxing]

There will always be people saying that fighting Hatton at 147 doesn't really prove much... And that he didn't fight Hatton at 140 when he was there...

And of course, there were other *champions* like Harris, which while not particularly neccessary, would add to his legacy at 140.

So in a way, no. It's not COMPLETE.

All in all, if Tszyu has been impressive against Hatton (and of course he wasn't, so it's kinda mute talkinga bout it), and Mayweather fought him after Gatti - his resume and legacy (not just at 140, but of course at that division in particular) would be awesome.

I understand what you're saying, but you can't complete a legacy at 140 by beating someone at 147. Besides, Floyd will be remembered for being able to beat a variety of different at a variety of weights, not dominating at one single weight class

I agree for the most part. I think that in the larger picture if floyd beats hatton he will have beaten the ring champ at each weightclass up to 147. hattonas a fighter is not much in my opinion but from a historical perpsective it will count for something.

I definitley see your point but there are a few historical nuances that will be tied up.

the first being floyd not fighting the best fighters out there regardless of the weight class they fought at. beating hatton would put to bed any argument that floyd did not fight the best fighters of his generation.

a tag he gets labeled with unfairly due to hatton by and large.

[Lance_Uppercut]

There's fighting at 140 you fuckin idiot. :patsch

Is this like how you count Sal Sanchez as one of the best 130ers ever? :lol: :lol:

[Lance_Uppercut]

your stating the obvious what you left out was that floyd challenged hatton at 140.

And Margarito challenged Floyd @ 147. And I CHALLENGED you to tell us where you got 5 masters degrees in bitch. :lol:

It only counts at 140 IF it's at 140 dumbfuck. :patsch

If Floyd wanted it to count @ 140, he should have fought there. You are one of the little pussies who say "Floyd can make 140 easy..":roll:

Sorry asshole...he'll have beaten Hatton @ 147 who IS NOT A RING CHAMP @ 147. Anyone, even with an 1 or 2 Associates degrees, can see that logic. Go back to school bitchtime!:good

[Executioner]

No, they're fighting at 147. Besides, you're so fucking high on floyd's balls yoiu don't consider hatton very good so wtf does it matter for, fagtime?:think

[Toopretty]

It dont matter what weight it is..its not like Hatton has to gain the weight...lol..he just doesnt have to dehydrate himself at the weight in..He was 148 I think fight night with Castillo....that 7 pounds dont mean shit..IT WILL PROVE WHO IS BETTER OUT OF THE TWO.... PERIOD...IF FLOYD WHOOPS HIM AT 147 THE SAME RESULTS WOULD BE AT 140. Tell me in the history of boxing that Fighter A beats fighter B at on weight class then moves down a half of weight class and Fighter A looses to fighter B...............................................................................

[Lance_Uppercut]

No, they're fighting at 147. Besides, you're so fucking high on floyd's balls yoiu don't consider hatton very good so wtf does it matter for, fagtime?:think

True! At least the Calzaghe fans are builing up Kessler to near greatness BEFORE the fight rather then tearing them down as trash first, as the Floyd nuthuggers seem to do. :patsch

[Toopretty]

WTF Floyd ducked Hatton stop lying about the facts asshole. :twisted:

You are a complete retard.....:lol::lol::lol: So Hatton saying he needs a few more fights before the likes of Mayweather....and I quote..and Floyd is ducking him...CLASSSICCC:rofl:rofl:rofl:nut:nut:nut

[KO Boxing]

Oh and are you gonna deny too that Floys ducked Tszyu and Margarito? Frigging nuthugger. :patsch
Tszyu? That's a new one.

[Executioner]

True! At least the Calzaghe fans are builing up Kessler to near greatness BEFORE the fight rather then tearing them down as trash first, as the Floyd nuthuggers seem to do. :patsch

I agree. They are building up Kessler big time, making him out to be the next best thing since sliced bread and already saying he can beat several ATG's.

Fagtime is a fucking joke. He sucks and so does his thread. He gets owned, yet again, like the hoe he is.

[BigReg]

True! At least the Calzaghe fans are builing up Kessler to near greatness BEFORE the fight rather then tearing them down as trash first, as the Floyd nuthuggers seem to do. :patsch

Not Blocky/yesihavearm, they're Calzaghe fans who have completely trashed Kessler for a while now.

[Lance_Uppercut]

I guess it's just the uppity snob Calzaghe fans...:smoke

[Lance_Uppercut]

Another nuthugger! :twisted:

To be perfectly fair, Mayweather was fighting on HBO wile Tszyu with SHOW. After the Tyson - Lewis fiasco, I don't think they were ready to work together. Altghough I do recall SHO saying they will sign fighters on a fight by fight basis, but I can't remember if that was before or after Floyd was @ 140.

[bigtime9]

yoiu don't consider hatton very good so wtf does it matter for

what matters is history shit for brains:deal

[Executioner]

what matters is history shit for brains:deal

w/e asshole. :lol: You don't consider Hatton very good but if Floyd wins, more than likely when someone bashes him you'll jump in pretty quickly saying shit like "He just beat The Man at 140 pounds who was 43-0" or some shit like that.

Just fuck off and quit spinning you friggin' retard :hi:

[Lance_Uppercut]

what matters is history shit for brains:deal

You know nothing of history cockmuncher. WHy did you place Sal Sanchez as a tom 130er?:lol:

[KO Boxing]

Another nuthugger! :twisted:
:lol:

[Marnoff]

Oh and are you gonna deny too that Floys ducked Tszyu and Margarito? Frigging nuthugger. :patsch

Legitimize your statement that Floyd ducked Hatton, because the evidence suggests it was the opposite.

Then you can move on to new claims. You can't just skip over lies you told.

It only takes replying to this guy for him to claim your "another nuthugger". :-( Don't suppose there's much point to you asking for him to "explain" something. Especially when that something never happened.

[bigtime9]

He just beat The Man at 140 pounds who was 43-0"

is ricky hatton the ring champ at 140...and is he 43-0:lol: are you stupid, don't bother answering I already have the answer:rofl

[IrnBruMan]

No, they're fighting at 147

:lol: :lol: :lol: :rofl :rofl :rofl

Shut the thread down, bigtime9 done got pwned again :rofl

woah woah woah there TooPurty - why all the whining when DLH wanted the fight at 154, yet now you're saying the difference between 140-147 is negligible because of the weight Hatton might come in at?

If it's no big deal, why didin't Floyd agree to fight Hatton at 140 so he could remove all doubt about his 'greatness' at that weight?

that theory is bs. if hatton fought cotto at 147 cotto destroys him. at 140 hatton wins. the weight has everything to do with it.

you sound like the idiot that made this thread making those kinds of statements.

[IrnBruMan]

I am sToOPid, ricky hatton is the ring champ at 140...and this fight is at 147:admin so yes I am stupid, don't bother answering I already have the answer:hat

:rofl :rofl :rofl

you dumb motherfucker

[kg0208]

:rofl :rofl :rofl

you dumb motherfucker

He is getting fucked in 2 seperate threads again? Damn....I am seeing a pattern here.

[bigtime9]

that theory is bs. if hatton fought cotto at 147 cotto destroys him. at 140 hatton wins.

yeah like you know what the fuck you're talking about..hatton couldn't destroy urango but he is going to beat cotto at 140:rofl

[bigtime9]

If it's no big deal, why didin't Floyd agree to fight Hatton at 140 so he could remove all doubt about his 'greatness' at that weight?

floyd is the ring and wbc champ at 147 why would he relinquish his wbc title to fight hatton for the ibo title..stupid ass:lol:

[Executioner]

is ricky hatton the ring champ at 140...and is he 43-0:lol: are you stupid, don't bother answering I already have the answer:rofl

Are you that fucking stupid? :rofl That's not the point, moron. Point is, you'll bash every fighter left and right that is about to face Floyd but afterwards you'll have no problems pointing out their credentials.


Damn, what an idiot. Science can learn from someone this fuckin' stupid. :patsch

[teekay00]

Floyd is obviously really good but for me to know he is great I Still need to see beat Ricky Hatton and after that Cotto and Paul Williams. I am not saying he cant but we have to wait and find out. Also it does not matter if they fight at 140 or 147 cuz the person who wins one would still win at the other.

[IrnBruMan]

floyd is the ring and wbc champ at 147 why would he relinquish his wbc title to fight hatton for the ibo title..stupid ass:lol:

I dunno who's more stupid...you wondering about PBFs legacy at 140 when he fights Hatton at 147, or me thinking you are ever going to understand how fucked in the head you are :lol:

I4O is 140 and 147 is 147. They'll be fighting at 147 so what the hell does it has to do with Floyd's story at 140?

He beat Hatton then he is still the top at 147, it's that simple. :hey

Floyd is already a quote GREAT fighter..:rofl:rofl:rofl:patsch now he is fighting for a good cozy top spot in history..I guess you are one of those guys that think Floyd is a natural welterweight and forgot everything before Baldomir:nut

[bigtime9]

I dunno who's more stupid..

I know for sure it has to be your dumb ass:rofl

:rofl Is this guy for real!?

It only counts if the fight is at 140. It isn't so hell no, his legacy won't be complete at 140lbs.

What legacy is this at 140 anyway? Demarcus Corley, Henry Bruseles, and Arturo Gatti?

Floyd is a great fighter but you need to get off his dick. He was never the man at 140. Hatton was at the time and he still is. Come back with whatever bullshit you like but facts are facts.

5 masters degrees :lol:

[IrnBruMan]

I know for sure it has to be your dumb ass:rofl

Stay on topic you dumb motherfucker or I'll be forced to bring out your picture once again :rasta

What weight are PBF and Hatton fighting each other at clowntown9? :hey

[C Money]

your stating the obvious what you left out was that floyd challenged hatton at 140.\


Again with that BS!!! The offers were mere excuses, Floyd knew of the Hatton/****** situation and played a hand he knew wouldnt/couldnt be contested:lol:

If Hatton was SCARED?? He wouldnt be fighting him now, O clueless waste of plasma:good


This time around? Hatton asked for 140 and FLOYD INSISTED ON 47!!! So NO way in hell you get credit for 40 when you dont fight him there:nono

after dec 8th hatton will not be the man at 140 anymore, that distinction will be ripped from him. I consider the fight at 147 unfinished business:deal

[juancho214]

shame to every floyd nuthugger that said yes

[Lance_Uppercut]

Jeebus. This only proves the presence of many delusional Floyd nuthuggers here in ESB. :patsch

You, jophnco, and pacdbest are the Manny Pac fan equivalent. Except you're too stupid to realize that....
