    I can certainly bring up the point of the body not being fully there developed at 18 years of age hence why Floyd has gone up so many weight division I'd say the only one he forcibly went up to was 154lbs the rest was just him maturing.

    Lemieux has some good wins the problem is when you compare Floyd's resume which is rated extremely high because people want to put him on this pedestal for all time greatness Jikam and Rosado are good opponents which are harshly critiqued it's like a smear campaign for some people when they don't like the guys leading the chase of a division.
    For example, the cruiserweight division is likely the strongest division in boxing but over in the States it gets no recognition and no Cruiser even gets onto the P4P list.

      Yes but I was referring strictly to Floyd in my post
      Maybe lemule is better off fighting at 168. Those 8 pounds will make a huge difference

        That's a good point but who the Fawk did baldomir beat? Judah then lost to Floyd and did nothing. Floyd fans claim Floyd ruined him yeah ok because getting tagged by pillows over 12 rounds ruins a mans career.

                He's never going up. He can't compete with the pedigree of the fighters at 168.

                He's a GDP fighter remember? They're going to milk him as much as they can and hope he doesn't kill himself trying to make weight. He needs the advantage.

                      I'm beginning to think you are either joking or just a ****** and arrogant casual.

                      The cruiserweight division gets overrated by tribals. Bellew gets trampled by Stevenson and now suddenly he's a king at 200. What does that tell you?
