he fought the best LHW at LHW...

Floyd fought the best JR WW, at WW....

one question for you did floyd outweigh ricky when they fought at 147. since you are claiming ricky was at a disadvantage because he didn't have to drain himsself down to 140. if they fought 1-2 pounds apart there was no weight disadvantage or advantage for either fighter.

you do understand why they hav e weight divisions

regardless of weight floyd always beats hatton. that is obvious.

[The Noose]

Interesting question.

I think its difficult to judge 2 fighters moving through weight classes, and who achieved more.



Hardly any MW have aver gone to HW. Whereas many fighters have moved up through the lower weights successfully.

[THE REED]

It is the same as if Roy would have fought Tarver at HW...
Why Not Corrie Sanders, Chris Byrd, Lenox Lewis, and Holyfield.

Why didnt Fight the best Heavyweights when he had the belt at Hw. and could have??? He came in vs John ruiz at 226 pounds all muscle...!!

I have no doubt he could have been a force in the HW division.
look at what Chris byrd and Holyfield did.

why didnt Roy do it...?

Because he WASNT the best HW... his class was LHW... just like Floyds was WW.... Roy moved down to his best class and fought the best fighter at HIS CLASS....

Floyd moved back down to ww, and fought the best JW ww...

ricky was at a disadvantage becaus he doesnt fight at ww... his best class is JW ww...

hopkins and winky both weighed 170 when they fought... do you think winky wasnt at a disadvantage JUST because he happened to weight 170?

You think Floyd's best Weight class is Welterweight?

You dont think Roy could have done better than Chris byrd and Holyfield at HW...???

You think those two fighters Had that much more ability than roy did, that they are able to fight at Hw and Roy cant?


My point is this:


Nobody ever held it against Roy that he didnt fight the best Heavyweights although he call himself the best Heavyweight in the world when he was the "Pound for Pound" best in the world. In addition he said would even beat Lenox Lewis,Wlad Klitschko, and Mike Tyson.??????

And yet people still think he is an all time great even though he didnt clean out the heavyweight division and fight the best heavyweights although he called himself the "best heavyweight in the world" and had the belt????

But when it comes to Mayweather, all you hear is if he doesnt fight the best welterweights in the world he is not a all time great...because he called himself the best "Welterweight" in the world when he was P4P best in the world.





QUESTION:

How would you guys feel and would you be mad if Floyd came back and went back down to the Jr. Welter weight divsion OR Lightweight and fought JMM, Hatton,and Pacquaio?

unless i am ****ing missing something here

he came in somewhere between 190-200 for the fight with Ruiz

When I was looking at the tape of the tape i type the wrong weight..my mistake

[El Dominicano]

Because he WASNT the best HW... his class was LHW... just like Floyds was WW.... Roy moved down to his best class and fought the best fighter at HIS CLASS....

Floyd moved back down to ww, and fought the best JW ww...
