Pwill or Martinez at 160 is Floyds only chance to save face.

    Otherwise before the Floyd fight Mosley would be considered a unified champ but that doesnt make sense

    I thought before the Mayweather Vs. Mosley fight, Mosley was the Lineal Champion and was fighting Berto to unify the division, but now if Floyd is the Lineal champ cant he unify the division if he beats Berto?

      Please. He should just stay at 147lbs. That's good enough.

        Floyd's not big enough for 160. He's only slightly bigger than manny.

          Mosley had the Super World WBA title that he got from beating Marg

          When he lost to Floyd, since he got to keep the Title but lost, the "Super World" part was then gone

          Lineal title is an imaginary title used to recognise the true legit champ, whether he holds a title or not

            I know what Lineal means lol. When Shane lost to Floyd he didn't keep his belt he was stripped of it, i believe the WBA Title is now vacant.

            Anyway, if Floyd is the Lineal Champ now then surely if he fights Berto then the winner will be 'Undisputied' champion, thus unifying the division?

              Lol nah you need physical belts for that. And i dont think it will be undisputed because Pac also has a title

                lol Floyd couldn't even make 154 and you want him to fight at 160? fighting Angulo at 154 is a better fight then Pac vs Marg for a vacant belt at a catchweight

                Manny set the bar so low saving face would mean not fighting this year

                  Yes. But yet and still people are holding him to higher standards.

                    It's not likely to be either of them!

                    It's Ricky Hatton rematch according to Euro Box.

                    Not hyped for that
