        And he really is a JWW naturally at this point. He could probably make 135 and fight Juan Diaz if he really wanted to.

        Speaking of interesting fights... Mayweather vs. Diaz?

        I've been wanting to see Floyd vs Juan for a while. Maybe in a year or two if Diaz continues to improve. Yeah, Floyd was 138 fight night when he fought 130, so he does 140 with his eyes closed, and 135 is a possibility.

            and you think he would fight a middlew eight hahahaha
            i agree. he would'nt make it in mw, that speed and defense is great at the lower weight levels, but mw, he better not get hit once, or it's curtains

              Floyd beating a middleweight while he could still make 140 would definitely put him up there with the likes of Henry Armstrong, who held the featherweight, lightweight and welterweight titles at the same time.

                I really wish there was some way to balance the weight though...

                No one is really going to give Floyd credit if he beats Juan considering he was coming down from 147.

                There are some damn good fighters that Floyd could fight other than Cotto and Williams, but in reality, he wouldn't get credit for them (Pacquiao, Diaz, etc.)

                      he would give sturm a clinic IMO. he would come in on fight night around his normal weight and execute.
