I think Floyd's quick move to 147 was smart.

    Lol.
    I could just imagine how it would be if the UK had a Mayweather-like fighter who accomplished the things he's already accomplished.

I think mitchell had SOME skill at 40 but he never was a real power puncher so we'll see how Mayweather handles some of thesse bigger guys that have A style similar to castillos but with heavier hands. But i have to give Mayweather his props cause he looked unstopable in his last 2 fights, hopefully he steps it up for 06!!!
      mitchell is a hard puncher
      he slugged it out with zoo for a while, and even rocked him before his knee problems took over
      in the second fight, mitchell's weak chin was the difference

        I think that 147 is an easy weight to be at for him but at the same time it's not the smartest. It today's modern boxing ring the fighters usually weigh in more than a handful of pounds heavier than what they weigh in at, which will put PBF at a disadvantage when fighting a larger opponent. I think he can do well at 147, but it isn't his best weight.

          55 knockout percentage does not equal a hard hitter. Id say from 75% and up, considering the opposition they face in their early career.
