And there are ppl better than him at certain aspects of his strenghs: Hatton-lateral movement, Judah-Speed. Overall he is great but can be challenged.
          I totally disagree. How can he not have balls when he's fought alot of tough guys in different weight classes? You say that Hatton has better lateral movement? This has to be a joke. How can he have better lateral movment then Floyd? Dont think just because its his style to jump from side to side, means that he has better lateral movement then Floyd because he doesnt. Then you say Zab has more speed and Floyd has no power. Thats not fair at all because your watching a guy who has fought in 5 weight classes and has moved up unaturally. Alot of your so called power guys would lose all there power if they did that and speed. Now go back to 130. Did Floyd have alot of power there? Yes. Was Zab at 147 faster then Floyd at 130? No. Dont just say stuff without telling the whole story.

          Again, you may say that some of the guys at 147 can beat Floyd but we all know the only reason why they even have a chance is beause they are way way way bigger. If all these guys were near the same size then no one would give them a snow balls chance in hell to beat Floyd

                EVERYBODY can be beat. To think otherwise would be foolish. Tyson looked pretty unbeatable until Buster came along.

                    Floyd is at 147...is it fair to analyze him as such? They guy is 5-8 72 inch reach, he belongs at 147. At 147 he has shown little balls or power. He refused to finish off a broken de la hoya. Judah has better speed at 147. Hatton, well he has spent the VAST majority of his career at 140 and has shown unbelievable lateral movement. Floyd has never shown much of a need to move laterally, he is more in and out. They are both good, but Hatton has showed unearthly side to side movement.

                      This certianly isnt a good sign for Floyd, I hope he is doing this on purpose.

                      As much as I would love to see him fight Cotto, the Hatton fight should probably be his last.
