I agree. It was a good year. Since then he hasn't really seemed as physically good.

PAC span of fighting Barerra, Marquez, and Morales in pretty much a back to back fights were awesome. His other span of taking Hoya, Hatton, and Cotto are also superb.Last edited by ModernTalking; 03-10-2012, 01:30 PM.

But the logic still applies, Baldomir is much bigger than Mayweather.
So is that not a worhtless fight?
After all, you just said if their is a big size difference, it can't be.

Still the worst fight pick I ever made.

I'll think you'll find he absolutely is.
He was outweighed by what? 13 Lbs + on fight night by Baldomir?
The guy is a big natural Welterweight.
Mayweather, of course isn't.

Mayweather, of course isn't.
Even that night, Floyd was rock solid in the division. he certainly matured into a Welterweight. I'm not sure how you define natural Welter. He's natural there now and his body growth is pretty consistent with aging. Day before weigh-ins make it hard to compare today's natural to yesterdays.

lets just say height makes a big difference and im not talking in the classical reach sense
would you like we get into it? or do you think you got the gist of it, people have types of bone density and strenght, this is usually why naturally strong individuals exist
im sure we've had the convo before while conversing about marquez-pacquiao IIILast edited by SplitSecond; 03-10-2012, 02:21 PM.

Of course, it differs but Baldomir was a WW when he was a young kid. In his early 20's he was a big Welterweight. That's what I mean.
