    Default Floyd at 130.

    Let's talk about how much of a beast Floyd was at 130. He was a perfect blend of speed, power, and offense. He beat Hernandez and Manfredy back to back, and beat them in the span of 2 months. And let's not forget his win over Corrales. All three of these wins were in dominant fashion.

    Floyd would be a heavy favorite over everyone in the current 130 lb division.

    Where do you rank Floyd all time at 130?

    Floyd was brutal at 130 and a delight to watch because he let his hands go a lot more and had much bigger power at that weight.

    I still think that his performance against Corrales at 130 is probably the greatest display of virtuoso boxing I've ever seen.

    At 130, Mayweather was terrific!

    Yes Floyd was great, no question beat some decent opposition would love to have seen him against Casamajor and Frietas to truly rate him.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I reckon he would have made Frietas quit on his stole. The Brazilian had no heart.

    Casamayor would have been a nice fight to see.

    Frietas was a monster at the weight at that time and showed plenty of heart.

    Exactly, Casamayor would've been a terrific matchup.

    Freitas was undefeated with a long string of KOs.

    At 135, there was Stevie Johnston, a southpaw with perpetual motion and energy, there's another one.

    No doubt about that...loads of offense at 130. Closest thing to RJJ I have seen.
