    Is Floyd the STRONGEST Welterweight?

    I'm not talking about hitting the hardest or having a lot of power but just strength. Mosley, who is a big WW for today's standards, was punking the larger marg around the ring. Floyd had the better of Mosley inside of the clinches and wasn't allowing Mosley to outmuscle him. We all know Mosley loves to lift weights like mad. Floyd isn't even that big for a WW.

      I don't know maybe, his strength is pretty underrated though. He is a very strong dude.

      Andre Berto is pretty damn stong himself. If I had to pick now that all the big WWs seem to be gone. I would go with Berto.

      However, Floyd is in the discussion.

        as far as physical strength i'd say berto is up there. he has to be since he's more of a wrestler than a boxer.

          even if he dont have his man muscles yet (i think he has) saul alvarez is built like a pit bull.
          he looks like a shorter middleweight on fight night.

            Off Topic: I read on Floyd's Fiance Twitter page that wedding is on February 14, 2011. How is that gonna happen? He might be heading to the big house sooner than that.

              styles make fights - from the way mosley muscled marg around and the way marg beat down cotto you'd think cotto was so much weaker than shane

              ... Although i'd say pbf's strength is underrated. He's a big welter now - he looked very big against mosley.

                He walks MWs down in sparring, Mayweather is pretty damn strong.

                  Strongest Welterweight Physically??? NO! I would go with Andre Berto, I don't know all the damn Welterweights seems to have moved up to Light Middleweight though so it is hard to say now, Joshua Clottey is also very strong physically and of course Mosley is still very strong even though he is older now

                    of course hes freakin strong, but no way is he the strongest at WW. LMFO even some lightweights are stronger them him.
