Has Floyd done enough to be considered up there alongside Ali and SRR?

    Bottom line is you don't call out a guy 2 classes beneath you.

    Dunn, i dont get why you're trying to shi t on the floyd-sergio fight. Many fighters would take that fight. Its only 1 weight class different.

      You don't want to see Floyd vs Sergio at 154, that isn't a legit fight?

      If Floyd was the one calling out Sergio then that makes it OK?

      Get your point but Floyd is the ww champ, fighting at 154 because Manny wont take fight. He fought at 154 vs ODH for the check. Its not like he is moving to 154 man please.

      Would love to see it so long as Sergio doesn't have to put up his MW title.

        He's been a couple fights away for about 9 years now.

          I could MAYBE see if Floyd-DLH never happened at 154; but it did. And Cotto-Mayweather wasn't scheduled to happen; but it is.

          As of May 6, I believe Floyd will be WBA 154lb champ. So if Sergio is willing to shed another 6 pounds to make that fight happen, Sergio is the one making concessions for the fight to happen.

            No one is crapping on it. Man you guys are really ****ing on something today. The point is what MW champ calls out a ww champ?

              of course, but its not for the challenge of fighting floyd, its to get paid.

                WTF does Floyd's (which is really your) reasoning for fighting at 154 have anything with the justification of a Martinez fight?

                1. Both sides (Manny and Floyd) are at least, in some ways, no matter who's d*ck you ride, partially to blame for the fight not happening.

                2. Let's just say Manny is the one who won't take the fight, It's only OK to fight Cotto then?

                3. I'd like to know what your opinion of Pac fighting Cotto at 145 and Clottey at 147, I'm guessing you thought THAT was BS though...

                  Just about.

                  His competition hardly blows Mayweather's away. Outside of 3 fights his competition is nothing to shout about.

                    that was Floyd's reason to fight DLH, you just said so like 2 posts ago?!


                    Don't worry I'll respond for you...

                    "Floyd moved UP in weight to fight DLH. Sergio is moving DOWN"
