    Floyd was never a great 140 lb fighter. Only beat Gatti, Brueseles and Chop Chop

    I don't think Floyd would've ever fought Crawford at 140.

        A p4p ranked fighter and one with a name his own size or bigger. It's tiring with hype jobs ranked p4p top 5 and beating nobody. I guess boxing is in a lull talent wise anymore compared to what I was accustomed to though. If he beats Thurman or Spence I will become a fan and buy into the hype but until then he's just a good fighter with a mediocre resume in a weak weight class.

          Floyd wanted the bigger money fights and p4p fighters... but he wouldn't take that fight doe . Floyd fought all the top names of his era and beat them .

                I think Crawford would outbox Floyd. It would be like Hearns vs Wilfred.

                  Only Duran, Floyd and Pryor would give him a true fight imo.

                    I think Floyd would T/KO him. It would be like Floyd vs Corrales.

                      If Floyd stayed at 140 there wasn't a fighter alive at the time that would beat him there. Not Harris, cotto, hatton or tszu. He was prime that was his best weight. At least to me. Speed + power.

                      Anyway.....I think bud beats the maidana, Khan, chop chop corelys, David diaz's of the world. And maybe Marquez and cotto. But I think the Bradley's, maybe zab, Floyd, Pryor, Duran's of the world may give him that work
