easy to discredit and run your dumb ass off the board. Your statement was simply if they were fighting at the welterweight limit. Who said their fight was at the welterweight limit? Maybe idiot since one of the fighters was at 160, maybe it was at the middleweight limit, as if you had any common sense that must be what the issue was, as you can fight LESS than the limit which is what Robinson did. But that must be too challenging for you to comprehend.

I think this thread is abit of a fail because the TS will knock down my posts. Proberbly a Pacquiao fan but I will answer the question...

At welterweight he's beaten Shane Mosley, Zab Judah, Sharmba Mitchell, Carlos Baldomir and Ricky Hatton. You could argue they arent "great" but they are the best of this era. All of them were world champions. The only other two top welterweights of this era that he hasnt beaten are Pacquiao and Cotto. And I believe that he will have beaten both of them by the time he retires. And then what will people say?

"Pacquiao was a natural lightweight, Floyd cherrypicked him"

Exactly. We can already see this coming the same way we saw the "Shane was old" coming when they were bashing Floyd for not fighting him.

Or the "Ricky Hatton has the style to beat Floyd, sign the fight coward!!" cries or even the DLH cries and calling him "a little shrimp" at the weigh ins...

We all know the minds of the haters, they exposed themselves too much and are now mere raging animals with pointy teeth. FU Haters.

dude, what was the ww limit when ray robinson fought??? what was the middle weight limit???

maybe you should ask your self. 160 was the middleweight limit in Robinson era.

Now do your homework. Can a fighter lamotta weight in at the middleweight limit 160, and challenge a fighter who weighs less even 15 pounds less.


There is no restriction on the minimum wieght you have to weight, only the maximum. Learn your facts. if the smaller fighter wants to fight a much heavier fighter that is on them.

147 posts and still not a name.........Im signing off.

aside from the obvious that this is a hate thread. pac hasnt fought any prime, elite fighters except in MAB at feather, he rematched morales after the loss (thats where the repeating order begins) and oh yeah he "beat" JMM at super feather. pac hasn't done much except gone up in weight where the differences were 5 lbs at most. this just gives much more evidence to the double standard in floyds/pac achievements, it kills me to see ppl say pac is a top 10 WW when all he has is a vunerable cotto and the welterweight kevin johnson, 'clottey'. oh yeah and dlh who looked awesome at 147 after only 7 years of not fighting at that weight. pull the trigger pls.

ok u think u know what your talking about, what was the division between ww and middle weight back then??? what is it now??? why did robinson choose to move up?? when u answer these questions then u may get a bit of knowledgde on the subject.
