    Thats right buddy...WELTER.

    I have no problems with Pac being ranked Number 1....Even though Mosley should be.
    The Hatton fight was what, over 2 years ago as well though right? And Floyd retired after that fight.

    Marquez is a great fighter, but he had never fought at Welter before. The same can't be said for Cotto.

    In a practical sense I think Floyd is the #1 Welterweight in the game, but looking at who has fought who over the relevant time period, I can see how there is a valid argument that he should not be ranked very highly in the division at all.

    Just my take.

      If that is true then why does Floyd bring up the losses of people in his division. "Mosley has 5 losses", "Pacquiao has been beat before" and many more.

        So Floyd beating a JWW and a lightweight at WW is impressive?

            So, um, my question is,


            why is Floyd ranked so high in the welterweight division?

            Hes done nothing of note other than beat a guy with 9 losses and the other welterweights he did beat there were just blown up jr. welters with one guy even being a blown up lightweight.

            So again, how is this dude ranked so high for mostly beating guys who were never welters to begin with?


            WHY ARE YOU SO OBSESSED WITH FLOYD? HUH TORTILLA?

            It comes down to this man
            Floyd is the most talented gifted fighter of this era
            we want to see him challenge himself like he use to
            he has let us all down so far
            he gets credit because of his skill
            I know its lame but it is what it is man
