    not really.

    floyd was big for 130 (not corrales big but still big)

    floyd is a natural 135-140.

    he's a good size for 135.

    i'd say most of the guys at 130 were smaller.

    he's about the same size as most of the 135 guys. some were bigger , most were around the same size.

    he is smaller than most he fought above 135 though.

      Why won't Floyd fight JMM at a lesser weight? JMM would prefer the fight be at 135 or 130.

      Why wouldn't Floyd fight Hatton at 140, instead of insisting on it being at 147?

        Mayweather's reach is greater than heavyweights like Tyson, Tua and Marciano.

        Hatton is shorter in height and smaller in the arms and shoulders than Floyd, as we could see during their fight.
        Hatton was at 140 when Floyd was at 130, Hatton comes in his 140 pound fights at 153 pounds while Floyd came in at 144, Hatton came in his WW fight against Collazo at 160 or around there while Floyd comes in at 146-148, Hatton weighs nearly 200 outside the ring whille Floyd is at 150. Thats why I always say that people penalyze Floyd because his skills are so good. No one else his weight would be able to move up like him but he can get away with it because his skill level is so high. Dont rip him for that. Yes Hatton is bigger but Floyd is just a better fighter so he can do things that Hatton cant. Floyd fought at 154 but does that make him bigger then guys like Cotto & Margarito who arre still basically in there 1st division. Is Floyd bigger than Tszyu? Come on now

          I never understood this as well. People making this statement are ******.

          I mean, its virtually impossible moving up 5 weight classes and fighting smaller guys!

                    Does anyone really believe gatti, baldi, and dlh were the best in their divisions at the time?

                    i like 130 and 135 floyd.

                    gatti got beaten numerous times (manfredy, robinson x2, ward etc)
                    baldy had one good victory against a notorious choke artist
                    dlh was 2-2 in his last 4 fights and only beat mayorga (who lost plenty as well) and was a part-time fighter.
