Is Floyd effectively saying i dont want to fight a but...

[Dynamite Kid]

Is Floyd effectively saying i dont want to fight at 147, but i will make out im campaigning there so i can drag these little guys up there where i have a big advantage physically.

Dont you think it will be a bit strange if Floyd ends up fighting Marquez and then possibly Pacquiao who are both NOT natural WW. Yet he is supposed campaigning at 147. In his recent fights he will gone after Hatton,Pacquiao and Marquez whist maintaing he is fighting at WW..........WTF?

Surely Mayweather must and some point fight a Cotto-Williams etc to.

[MANGLER]

Yep, it's Mr boat buyer day again. Flawless will be here eventually to str8en you out wit a tale of the tape post Dynamite. And yea, he oughta fight a real WW if he wants to fight at WW.

floyd is not gonna fight a top welter. we all know this.

[Benny Leonard]

No; it's just his way of saying screw the bull**** boxing rules that allow a fighter to show up 10-20 pounds heavier by fight-time.

Like I've said many times before: Pac weighed in at 147 by fight-time against Diaz. When training for Oscar, he was 152 pounds with 6% body fat and was working his way down according to Freddie Roach. Pac already fought at WW and he did well, didn't he?
I'm not even sure Floyd has ever past 150 pounds, let alone 149 pounds for his WW fights by fight-time. Not sure what he will do now. If he does put on 10+ like the rest of the WW, yeah, that's messed up...but if he doesn't go over 149, nothing wrong with that considering that is what most JrWW weigh-in by fight-time. And Hatton says 154 for him against Pac is the expectation. Not sure with Pac: maybe 147+ as usual.

Still holding out hopes he will fight Cotto....maybe even Mosley.

Things would have to fall in place to make that possible.

[Ishy Aytan]

I see nothing wrong with him fighting Pac at 147. Thats the weight he smashed De La Hoya to pieces.

I can bet my life on Floyd fighting Cotto by the end of his career.

floyd fought oscar at 154 didnt he

[supcuhz211]

Floyd is simply saying that if you got the balls to call me out come up to my weight and fight me in my weight class. when money called de la hoya out did they fight at a catch weight? didnt think so.. he moved up to goldies weght class didnt he? i think thats what happend if i remember correctly.

floyd is not a natural ww either. he started his career below 140 and moved up just like pac and jmm

[Benny Leonard]

floyd fought oscar at 154 didnt he

Yes; and Oscar was able to rehydrate to 164+ or so it is said. Floyd did whatever Oscar wanted which included not being allowed to wear "Winning" gloves so he had to wear "Reyes" gloves which we know work well for someone with brittle hands. What was Oscar thinking?
Maybe the reason why Floyd didn't throw as much and was careful with picking his shots?

I think in that fight also was Floyd coming in under 154 for the fight....think 150.

[Piper the Great]

FLOYD AINT FIGHTING NONE OF THESE TOP WW. its sad that people are agreeing to this jmm fight. the excusses are crazy as ****. foyd not a natural ww but he been there for 5 year & was the champ. this a p4p fight but its a tune up @ the same time.the list goes on. he priced himself out of a fight with shane but excepts marquez. im sure gbp didnt pay him that 20 milli to fiht jmm instead of shane.
