    Why dont Floyd get credit for moving up to 147

    Zab has been welter king for the majority of the last few years and this is only FLoyd 2nd fight at 147 and people are still bitching about his selection. At 147 Zab and Margito are the toughest guys. If Zab rematched Baldi, would u honestly favor Baldi?? Hell no. Give credit where its due. If he beats Judah thats very impressive IMO. Moving up in weight isnt always a walk in the park. Didnt Floyd start at 125 or 130. And its not like Floyd is the tallest guy or Floyd had trouble making those lower weights. Hell if he wanted he still could be fighting at 130, 135. If it was any other fighter moving up fighting champs and former undisputed champs people would be all over their ballsacks. Whoever says this sint Floyds biggest challenge is a moron

        True........I do think this will be PBFs toughest fight.I mean come on say what you want about Judah but we all know he is a threat to anyone when he is mentally focused and well prepared.I really hope Judah wins to be honest although it appears unlikely.So far this has been a year of upsets so I rule nothing out and can;t wait for the fight.

          The only hard fight that is out there for Floyd at the moment is Ronald Winky Wright and that`s only because of his Defence floyd is a top top Fighter and is a defo all of famer no doubt I would love to see him fight Oscar De La Hoya with Floyds father in the opposite corner there would be fireworks

              well thats because hatton said he doesnt want to fight him until 2007!
              who else is there for him to fight at 140?

                Because Judah sucks. This is a lose-lose for Mayweather unless he KO's Judah in the first round

                  Check it, PBF is the baddest man on the planet P4P period. For anyone to think otherwise, shows your true boxing knowledge, and im serious, to rate anyone above this guy in any 2 division above or below him is absurd, that include Diego C who his already KO'd, Sugar Shane, Pinky Wright or anyone for that matter. The guy will go down as the best p4p ever. I see in him what i use to see in RJJ but hinestly believe that his smarter and will pick his fights that way.

                    The reason is he is cherry picking his fights like RJJ did, he skipped 140 w/ Hatton and Cotto. And remeber I told you he'd do this almost a year ago on this very board, hed skip over all these guys and eventually for money hed go after Zab. If wants to be considered the best?? Beat Margarito, Hatton, Tszyu, and since he talk a lot of **** on WInky beat him too, and while your up at 154 beat Ouma while ur at it. But I would consider him the best if beats the first 3 i mentioned by this time next year
