I disagreed pending fitness. Although most likely Mayweather.

Golden Boy.
How old is he?

34. Mayweather will be 30 later this year. DLH is past his prime for sure.

Did DLH get clobbered?

Oh was he meaning that?

I didnt realise he didnt know. I thought he must have been talking about something else that i wasnt aware of

Oh, so why talk about it now?

Possibly July 21st against Winky Wright.

So no retirement, then.

I hope Roy Jones comes back too. Even thought he was only a shadow of himself in his last fight. They should have a wee league with Jones, Tarver, Hopkins and Glencoffe Johnson. Would be fun.

He's too busy with his pitbulls.

Do you like Jermaine Taylor?

Never seen him fight. I don't have satellite or digital TV so the amount of quality US boxing is negligible. I saw the Johnson vs Jones fight. Watching Jones lie on the canvas in a dazed state.

He beat B-Hop for the title and then beat Winky Wright. He's a pretty good fighter. Hopkins is just remarkable because he held his title for over 10 years.

It's a high quality division. No great Heavyweights really left anymore, but then is it more exciting to have a dominant select or to have humans who lose now and again?

Floyd's Dad has seemingly reconciled with him. He's left DLH to join Pretty Boy's team.

I miss heavyweight dominance. It was fun when Tyson was in his prime and everybody's thinking: "who the hell is going to beat this guy?" Then out of nowhere, Buster Douglas stuns him to take the title. Those were good times. Now all I know of the heavyweight division is some Russian guy.

Klitschko? Valuev?

These fighters aren't super-dominant. Look at Danny Williams too. Sure he beat a past-best Tyson but in truth he hasn't got the goods. Does anyone know any cruiserweights apart from "Real Deal" Steroid Holyfield.

You mean Evan Fields? :lol: Please tell me you heard about that story.

The Times, has a huge picture of him on the back page. Nevertheless the story is a further 10 pages back. What a spineless prick. Calling himself the real deal n'all.

Mayweather will take this fight. Although de la hoya looked good his last fight, this is "THE" test for Mayweather. He's gone into every fight knowing he should win. Now he's got to prove he can take on a class opponent. I think he'll come in more prepared and focused to fight any style of fight that breaks out. Mayweather in the 8th.
