I rewatched the Floyd fight, and I think he's just as fast or slow as he's always been. it seemed like a bad style matchup to me. I doubt it would have made a difference if they fought a few lbs lighter. He just couldnt get off...it happens. Is it fair?
Is it fair to say JMM is a bum above 140bs?

never fair to say that JMM is a bum. but he isnt top ten at 147 and who knows at 140?Comment

No bum, the intelligence and skill set of JMM would never make him a bum.
Nobody is claiming he is a bum.
He just doesn't belong above 135. People can say it was a stylistically match up, or that Floyd didn't fight like the bigger guy, or whatever that is all fine and dandy. However, JMM was slower, didn't have his puncher power, didn't have his legs, and flat out just didn't belong there. And, I doubt he could beat any top 20 WW. I don't even think he belongs at140. 135 that is his limit not anything higher. And, if he does fight higher than 135 he would not be the same old JMM.Comment

he's a career featherweight who had two fights at lightweight and was made to go up to welterweight.
so he had 3 fights above super featherweight and your'e rating him based on one fight that he didn't win a round against?Comment
