Guys like Campbell and Guzman will more than likely prove to be too much for him. A star can only go up in weight so far before he looks ordinary and can't take the incoming from much bigger guys with a punch.

I agree 100%, but still feel he should taken Hatton out so his legacy will be set just as Nasseem had his set for him.

The total number of fights doesn't make a difference. The concept is still the same.

In fact, it makes even more sense to use this calculation here because we do have some people that have thousands of fights. This means that typically someone with that many fights will be someone that is very experienced/skilled. Having a high percentage of KOs in comparison to total wins can be deceiving because although that person may win more of their fights by KO, they may also have a high KO loss percentage or it could reflect how poor of a boxer that person is.

For example, would you really want to give this person props?

John Smith OB Record

5000 wins
4900 KOs
8000 losses
10 draws

This person yields a 98% KO rate per the current calculation system.

Per my proposed system this person's actual KO percentage is 38%

Now isn't it evident which calculation reflects the person's overall caliber as a fighter?

This person's record merely reflects that if and when he wins, it's usually by KO. However, this in no way captures the individual's overall skill, and that is my overall point. In summary, the current calculation system is quite flawed.

Very good point. But how does that capture a persons overall skill. KO % means skill level? Maybe the player has the mindset, win lose or draw somebodies getting KO'ed.

Now don't you flip flop on your previous statement.

Did you learn this valuable information the same time as you were gaining the rest of your wisdom and knowledge being a community organizer on the south side of Chicago?

one question though..... why is it always southside.... what about the north east and westside...?

Havent seen the fight yet, but from what i've read it has the potential for fight of the year. Have to say Marg surprised me. Didnt think he had it in him.

Looks like you did recieve a few comments on you tube. So when are you and Kid Thunder I believe, that was his name, getting in the ring? You know the guy that took Charles out in 1. Wouldn't mind viewing that one on you tube. You beat him then you will be the man who beat the man Charlie.

Let's Get It On.......................

Kick his MF'ing ass.

War HTF

West "By God" Virginia, and yes we are a country.

at 135 he will do just fine. I'd like to see him move up and take on Hatton. If Hatton would accept Pac's challenge, Pac would have a win/win situation just like Hatton had against PBF, but if Hatton lost, well what can be said after that..
