    If he's the ****ing welterweight champion, of course he has to fight the best. If he doesn't claim any title, he can fight whoever he wants. Nothing makes me sicker than the *****s crying about poor Floyd being so small for his weight class.

      Skillwise, he's better than many middleweights, and heavyweights. Should he be considered the best at those weights too?

        Floyd had no problem facing the big bad Baldomir! Now all of a sudden, his fans want to use his small frame as an excuse? Cmon!

          Simply because he was at his best at 130-135. Welterweight is 17 pounds higher than his best showings which were at 130 and 135 respectively. Sugar Ray Leonard started at 147 and fought his best fights there. He only fought at 160 four times 168 once and 154 once. So when people say Leonard fought the best, well yeah, but they were at his natural weight. Did we see Leonard fight the best at 168 in LaLonde when he fought there once? No, and we shouldnt expect that, being that is way above his best weight.

          People forget or don't realize that Floyd turned professional in 1996, in 1993 as an amateur he fought at 106 and in 1994 he fought at 114, nobody moves up like that and if they do its after many years. Again welterweight is 17 pounds higher than his best weight and he even fought at 154 once, 24 pounds above his best weight, people dont seem to realize this when comparing Floyd to others. What you have to ask yourself is whomever you are comparing him to, did that fighter continously fight the best at weights much higher than their best weights, odds are they didnt.

          Then i guess Pac shouldnt have to face the best at 130/135/147 due to the fact that he started his career at 106. Idiot!

            He chose to move up to 147, as P4P number 1 if he wants to keep the status as P4P number 1 and best 147 fighter he should have to fight the best at 147

              Pac Man hasnt faced anyone over 147 yet idiot. Floyd has several times & is still undefeated.

                  Pac turned pro and started at 106. Floyd turned pro and started at 130. Therefore Pac has moved up in weight more than Floyd. Idiot!
