    My **** is, I like Floyd as a fighter. I never discredit what he's done because a lot of fighters to come won't accomplish what he did. But the problem I have is the mentality that his Pinnacle was at 130-135. He didn't go to Welterweight like Roy did to heavyweight. Floyd Competed at Welterweight

    But the whole issue with him not being a "real" Welterweight compared to guys like Cotto or Mosley is simply a cop out. The dude was THE recognized Welterweight champion of the World. He even skipped up a few pounds to fight Oscar at 154. So obviously weight is not an issue here whatsoever. Cotto and Mosley both easily make 146-147, and so does Floyd.

    Like I said before man, it ain't rocket science LOL.

If you measure how Cotto and Pacquiao both train to make the 147 limit, of those 2 who do you think parallels Floyd in preparation to make 147?

      So let me ask you this, who has the size advantage in a fight with both Cotto and Floyd and Mosley and Floyd? Are you saying both Cotto or Mosley may be too much?
      Once Again,

      I have no problem with floyd fighting Other WW's...
      my problem is that People saying he can ONLY fight Welterweights for it to be a fair fight, when he himself is not really a welterweight compare to the rest of the welterweights...

      do you get my point...?
      • Did you have a problem with Middleweight Hopkins Fighting a jr.middleweight De La hoya at the time instead of a top middleweight
      • Did you have problem with A jr. Middleweight Oscar De La Hoya Fighting a small welterweight in Mayweather at the time instead of a top jr.middleweight
      • Did you have problem with Middleweight Marvin Hagler Fighting a jr. Middleweight in Thomas Hearns at the time instead of a top middleweight


      Why is that Mosely& Cotto can call out Pacquaio and Hatton but Floyd can't?

      Why cant Floyd fight people his own size and even smaller then him when he himself is a small dude fighting bigger dudes all the time is my point...


      People get mad because I apply the standards on other fighters that they apply to Floyd...but my whole thing is dont be a hypocrite.

      If you think it is Cool for Pacquaio to fight Hatton...Then you should think it's Cool For Pacquaio to fight Floyd...

      If you think It's cool for Floyd to fight Paul Williams, then you should think it's cool for Floyd to fight somebody has tremendous physical advnatages over...


      You get my point.... DONT MAKE SPECIAL RULES for Floyd and not everybody else. thats been my problem from day 1.

      DOUBLE STANDARDS

              The thing that bothers me the most is that he took the WW division hostage. He saw his opportunity with Baldo took the belts and then he wouldn't fight any top 5 welters. Or for that matter any real welters, he held the belts for ramsom, took the easiest fights available and then when the heat was on for him to fight a real WW ran for his life.

                Haha LOL!

                It annoys me when someone answers his posts, yet he keeps replying with the same copied-and-pasted multi-coloured multi-font information. He must have it saved on his computer ready for the next Floyd discussion that comes along!

                I read yesterday that a poster on here caught him used somebody else's comments on a youtube video in his post!

                  Floyd/Cotto and Floyd/Mosley size up pretty even imo and those are the fights people want to see. Floyd/Pac is a great fight after what Pac did with dlh, who fought at or around 154 for a couple of years.

                    LOL dude I have no time in the day to keep going back and forth.

                    I believe if you were the reigning Welterweight champ and you retire and comeback to fight at that weight it should be against the tops of that division and right now it's Cotto and Mosley. Both are intriguing fights and fights the entire Boxing world would wait on pins and needles to see it. You being a Floyd fan should be thrilled that fights of that stature are still a possibility, yet you pull up irrelevant facts about Floyd that have nothing to do with what he should and will do in the foreseeable future (so we hope).

                    I'm done

                      Bacause Floyd has unfinished business with Cotto and Mosley. He avoided Cotto when he was clearly the number 1 fight for him out there, the fight everyone wanted to see. Cotto and Mosley have fought and will fight anyone that's put in front of them. Mayweather will duck anyone and look for the easiest fight.
