    Floyd cherry picking...

    Straight to the point, anyone who believes this is delusional. Floyd could still make 140 where his power would still be significant, he would be running the table knocking people out left and right. You want him to move up two weight classes and fight who you think he should fight. Get the **** outta here.

    I wish he stayed at 140 in 05 Cruz he peaked there...he was unstoppable there. But he hasn't lost either, at the same time. Lol.

        He can still make 140 but he couldn't make 144 for the Marquez fight?

        Interesting.

            Floyd cleans out 140 by fantasy forfeit.

              Interesting.

              Interesting counter, but I don't necessarily interpret him not making weight for that fight as evidence that he couldn't. I remember on a 24/7 watching Floyd eat Doritos or some sht while he was training... So take that for what it's worth.

                We saw broner eating twinkies. Where's he fighting at now?

                  Yet Floyd cherry picked from the 130, 135, 140 or barely fought at 147 tree very often and asked them to come up to 147 to fight not 140.

                  examples:
                  - Hatton - King at 140 - one very average performance at WW
                  - Marquez - Just moved up from 130 to 135
                  - Ortiz - Quit at 140 against Maidana and only beat Berto at WW, who was criticized for his crappy resume
                  - Guerrero - only beat Berto at WW, who was criticized for his crappy resume
                  - Sharmba - not a true WW fighter
                  - Khan - If Khan had beat Garcia, he was supposed to be next for Floyd

                  Note: Most of those guys only moved to WW so they can fight Floyd. If Floyd was at 140, they would have fought him there.
