If Floyd wants to fight at 147, why not just fight a WW?

    Did you expect Hopkins to ask for the fight to be at 175 pounds??

    Didnt think so.

    Stop crying over everything Floyd does.

    Floyd is at 147...he hasnt fought at 140 in 5 years.

    JMM wants the fight..fight him at 147..take your ass whoopin and payday..and see ya in the morning.
    IF its like that then have PBF fight The Punisher

      Let me ask u this. If Floyd is at 147, and u feel he's too big now for 140, why dont he fight a legit WW?

        This seems to be the question that no Floyd fans are able to answer.

            because no 147 lber is a good lead in fight aka tune up fight for pac.

            jmm is the logical lead in and tune up fight for pac

              This is understandable, but its more than likely that the pac fight will take place at a catchweight between 140-147lbs. Secondly, JMM is not gonna risk future fights by jumping up to WW and putting himself at a major disadvantage against Floyd. This is a tune-up for Floyd. Not for Marquez.

                well have him fight a tune up fight with a real 147lbs if he wants to be the best have him fight the best it isnt the boxers fault that PBF decided to take a 2 year beak ...Andre Berto, Joshua Clottey, Miguel Angel Cotto

                  Erm like ive posted a million times, what wellterweight does he fight for a tune up?

                  Mosley...... NO
                  Cotto........ NO

                  Who?

                  Green fighters like Berto?
                  Are you serious?



                  Some of you guys dont understand boxing. Floyd wants a tune up against a fighter who has nothing to lose. Marquez fits the bill. Whats so hard to understand?

                    What makes u think Marquez has nothing to lose? He's the LW champ of the world, and pfp#2 fighter in the world. I say he has alot to lose.

                    At 140 it makes this fight an even playing field. Marquez moves up 1 division, while Floyd moves down 1 division. May the best man win!

                    U say what WW's can he fight for a tune-up? How about Collazo or Quintana?
