    just That Boxing isn't an exhibition sport.. and To be the best you have to beat the best..

    What good is owning a Porche... If all you do is race Civics...??

      Because I answered that exact question to Wiley earlier.

      Floyd COULD HAVE stayed at 135 and dominated for years. Would that have been more impressive than what he is doing?

      IN MY MIND, I give him MORE credit for beating DLH and Hatton than for beating Freitas/Casamayor and Diaz.

      So, I think you have to judge his record with a creative set of metrics. Beating (34 yr old) Delahoya at 154 is more impressive than beating ANYONE at 135.

      With all due respect to my man Casamayor.

        where was the fight held?
        Floyd was certainly not heavier in that ring.

              Wait.

              I asked the man an objective question. Now if he says

              Pernell
              Jones
              Leonard
              Duran
              Chavez

              Hagler
              Lopez
              Ali
              etc
              etc

              I have no problem with that. My only problem is when people say "Henry Armstrong " or "Walter Ketchel" or whoever and never saw more than a few clips from those guys. If that.

              fair?

                and apart from that, Hatton came up a weight division, did floyd not fight at lmw last time he fought?

                  Nevermind come fight time? That is when the weight matters.

                    Did Floyd not start at 130?
