Well Tito was mostly a light middleweight so it wasn't that big a deal. I guess Hopkins although a middlweight people think he could've fought Super Middleweight but not like it matters. People move up in weight all the time, look at little floyd. If Oscar would've beat Floyd, no one would've said oh its just because lil floyd is a natural lightweight moved all the way up to super welterweight. So be consistant in your arguement.

PS: Donny reminds me of the people who want to see a war or KO every fight. Lemme ask you, did you find St.Pierre-Serra II boring?

Don't you? Isn't it more entertaining?

Not at all, Ko's are nice, but technical boxing is way more interesting than a slugfest IMO. Boxing is an art that really gets showcased when great "boxers' step in the ring.

hmm.. well if that's your preference XD

Yes I do find a lot of matches boring Mikkel, a lot of Boxing matches and a lot of MMA matches. I don't know how to explain it, it's like "ok yeah I've seen this one before", it's like they are playing replays and only showing the boring ones. A lot of same styles and same boring old tactics, everyone wants to get on the bike and hold out for points.

Damn right I want to see a war Prof, why wouldn't I ?

War doesn't mean chin up, hands down and bang.

What I'm looking for is a display of skill, show me why you are in there. Any bum off the street can hold on and move with like a weeks training to understand where the shots can come from etc.

I find it so strange, many of the so called top fights like Hopkins-Calzaghe, Mayweather- Dela Hoya, Klitsko-Ibraginow are just total disappointing !!
I really miss to see a Chavez-Taylor, Ali-Frazier, Leonard-Hagler kind of fight.
