Is Floyd A True Champion?

[tills9191]

he fought zab judah and baldomir
guys that were the considered the legit recognised welterweight champs at the time they fought
and beat the best junior middleweight at the time in oscar
and he just beat the best junior welterweight who was also a former welterweight champ in ricky hatton

yeah he a true champ

why u hating?

I'm not hating dude.
I kind of like Floyd, don't really hate him or love him.
But I'm just trying to analyse his status from a neutral view point.

Floyd didn't become the WW champion by defeating Hatton he got he by defeating Baldomir and Judah.

Damm stop with the hatting already and give floyd his props

I can understand when people say that Floyd is NOT the top welterweight today, when to be absolutely 100% spot on, he hasn't earned it yet. He beat Hatton who is a true Jnr Welterweight, but that doesn't make him the top welterweight when he hasn't fought one legitimate world class welterweight yet.

Before he can be crowned with that title he'll need to beat at least one or two of the top guys like Cotto, Williams or Cintron. Unfortuately Mayweathers career is alot like Roy Jones Jr's where he carefully picks and chooses his fights.
Nothing wrong with this because you can't blame a fighter for maximizing his place at the top where the big money is but we shouldn't confuse the fact that the business of boxing has created this issue where we have 4 or 5 champions in each weight class each saying they're the " World Champion" then fighting bums to pad their record and making big bucks for them and the phoney boxing organizations they represent what do we have now, WBA, WBC, WBO and IBF??

hehe, your cute, nah , in all seriousness, I dont mind the guy.He's a class act boxer.

Just curious - why would you consider Cintron a top guy yet question floyds credentials? Williams may get there but I don't think he is yet. Cotto certainly is. Cintron? Nah not for me.

[msagrain]

Of course He is NOT true champion


He only holds a couple of belts.... to be a true champon you need to have ALL the belts.

fine name 1 welterweight that can beat him?
