    Is Floyd better or worse as a fighter @ 140lbs (RIGHT NOW)

    I personally feel like if Floyd fought at 140lbs... he would be even better... much faster...

      Floyd at 130/135/140 was soo fast.

      Hell he's fast at 147/154.

      I think Floyd would actually benefit from the lighter weight, plus he would then be in the same weightclass as the guys hes fighting *waits for nuthuggers*

          So honestly... I feel like if the fight got made at 140lbs.. I wouldnt feel any differently about the fight..

          at 140.. JMM doesnt have to move up so much, but Floyd would be a better fighter IMO...



          This fight is LAYOFF versus MOVE UP IN WEIGHT....

          it isnt that bad of a fight...

          People seem to refuse the thought that Floyd will have been inactive for 18 months... does that mean absolutely nothing?

          I forgot it's Floyd... so it doesn't.

            Mr boatbuyer can beat anybody that's at either weight.

              I'm not a fan of moving back down in weight after moving up

              He looked better, more offensive at 140, right now I'd say he's better at 147

                Personally, I look at Floyd as a WW now. Yea, he's had great accomplishments under 147, but we're talking about now. If Floyd had no issues making 140 I don't see what the big fuss would be to get JMM vs Floyd at 140 instead of these catch weights. Is Floyd's goal to keep fighting at 147? Looks like it to me, he just wants a big name with low risk situation and JMM facilitates that.

                    This is a thing I am unsure about so haven't voted... I don't comment on this Floyd being able to fight at 140 stuff much because I am unsure on whether he can or not, and wont be until he says he is/isn't. When looking at him you would think he could make 140 easily... but to me that doesn't mean he can, I don't know whether he would look better at 140 or worst, or the same, by looking at him though I would think he could effectively.
