    I don't think Floyd taking on Judah was/is a problem. Losing to Baldo or not, Judah was still one of the top WWs at the time. What I don't like is Floyd ducking Marg and fighting Baldo. If he'd fought Marg and then fought Judah, we wouldn't have this discussion.

          Remember when Mayweather was upset he couldn't get a fight with old James Leija?

          "Leija was (38) years old. That's what you are supposed to do to a (38)-year-old," Mayweather said of Gatti's fifth-round knockout. "When I tried to get a fight with Leija, they said don't do that. No one would tune in for that. They wouldn't let me fight him."
          Always seeks out the best fights does Floyd.

              There was always the threat of a ko upset but Floyd was again favored to win and yes Mosley was still old and off of inactivity when they fought.

                  Wonderful. Now tell me which welterweights would be favoured over Floyd? Floyd was just as inactive as Mosley was.

                    Well at the time Pac vs him was about even money.

                      People really like to re-write history when it comes to Mayweather-Hatton and Mayweather-Mosley, those are two obvious ones.
