cotto was sh-it at 154. fought nobody. guerrero ain't sh-it at 147. berto and a razor close fight vs aydin? pac, margarito, and cotto had ten times that resume and floyd didn't want none. like i said you can just cherry pick over and over and stay at the top by waiting for guys to fade and cherry picking guys like guerrero and ortiz. stop rewarding these frauds with your respect. i respect carl froch and of course cesar rene cuena!

Rankings?
The WBC rankings for Amir Khan: Ranked #2 at 147
Amir Khan was expected to be Floyd's next opponent but Danny Garcia changed all that. So if Floyd fought Amir Khan, Floyd fans would be bringing up that Khan was ranked #2. You say, no they wouldn't stoop that low? Well, you know that they keep on bringing up that Marquez was #2 P4P even though he had just moved up from 130 to 135lb division.

Facts are that Khan is ranked #2 at 147 by them. So if Floyd fights him will you be ready to jump on Floyd's bandwagon and say "Floyd is right, Khan is #2 ranked 147lbs. He fought a legit WW opponent" ???
Before you answer it, keep in mind that there are Floyd fans that were on Floyd's side from day 1 when he said "...but Marquez is #2 P4P".
Floyd skipped the part about Marquez just moved up from 130 to 135lbs. Maybe you were defending that?

You guys are being ridiculous.
Floyd vs Sergio would be a pick'em fight. Very exciting.
Either Sergio is a real MW, and moving down will drain him. = Good for Floyd?
Or Sergio is a small MW, and the fight is reasonable.
I dont see why people are so against the fight.
Against Cotto Floyd still won almost every round. It was tough, but who is to say Sergio wont be drained?
I think Floyds fans are simply scared of Floyd losing.
