    And? What does he have to do with Floyd?
    Were you bitching at Oscar for fighting a smaller Floyd? Surely you werent. You were hoping Oscar would win... You hypocrite

      What it has to do with Floyd is a comparison.


      To show what a fighter with similar skills and talents could do after a 2 + year layoff.

      I never wanted the Floyd DLH fight to begin with, so no, I wasn't supportive of that. I would have preferred Floyd fight a prime welter and DLH stay a promoter.


      The more things change, the more they stay the same.

      Here we are, over two years later and we're still waiting for Floyd to fight a prime welter.

            a 36 year old journeyman who scored a fluke win over an overrated fighter(judah) who proved he can't compete at welterweight. that's a prime fighter?

              lol at Baldomir being a prime welter.

              So because he got lucky in his once of a lifetime chance,

              hes suddenly one of the best in the world?


              Theres a reason why he lost his next fight.

              The competition was that much better than the flake he won the title from. The same flake who lost that same title to Corey Spinks.

                A guy who hadn't lost in more than 8 years and was considered the Cinderella Man in boxing with two victories over two famous fighters while being the underdog.

                And when did he prove he couldn't compete at WW? He hadn't lost in 8 years and had been top 10 A LONG TIME. All of a sudden, Floyd beats him, and he was never **** to begin with and everyone forgot about him afterwards.

                  No, not because of that. Because he was ranked #1 is why he was the best in the world.

                    Besides Judah,

                    who did he beat?


                    Thanks for trying.

                      Does your ranking system hold true for Margarito as well?


                      Or Shane Mosley right now?
