So is Victor Floyd's biggest threat to date?

[fightfan_79]

I believe so....even though I believe Floyd should have this in the bag (SD)...
Victor is young, hungry, fast, powerful, big and a southpaw....

Floyd being the best defensive fighter since Pernell should just sit in the pocket and poshot...then pour it on in the later rounds when Victor might deviate from the plan....

Opinions?

No, most definitely not.

IMO his last biggest real threat was Oscar De La Hoya because of the weight it was held in and because DLH was not entirely washed up yet. The DLH Floyd fought at 154, could beat a lot of current 154 guys. He was very active in that fight, throwing jabs, didn't tire, made an effort to go the body when he's really not a body puncher. That DLH was still pretty good.


Then I would say it's Diego Corrales, then Jose Luis Castillo, then Victor Ortiz, then Ricky Hatton, then Shane Mosley[despite a lot of people saying going in to the fight Shane Mosley was Floyd's biggest threat to date].


That's just how I see it. After those, goes Genaro Hernandez, Zab Judah, Jesus Chavez, Carlos Hernandez, Carlos Baldomir, Arturo Gatti being the least threat out of his big name wins IMO.

So I rank Ortiz as his 4th biggest threat to date, and the biggest threat since 2007.

No.........He fought better fighters at lower weights.

Castillo, Corrales, Chavez.

Not at all Flicker bruh. Vic is not as talented as Zab was. But he is very talented, and younger, biger, and possibly stronger, not to mention a southpaw with a good jab. I dont think this is gonna be a easy fight for Floyd at all, and we might even see vic get a KD against him. I still think Floyd wins this fight. But I'm seeing something comparable to Floyd vs. JLC. I hope I'm wrong and Floyd dominates but by no means is this gonna be a walk in the park, and Floyd knows it.

[BoxerDood]

The version of De La Hoya that Floyd fought beats most fighters at 147-160 right now.

I forgot Corley.

[brick wall]

i don't even think ortiz will be able to give floyd problems the way castillo did.
