Floyd did the best he could in a division where everyone was bigger and it was amazing that he had power enough to reach the top of the division and Ali was bigger, stronger and equal in speed if not better because of the age difference. But being realistic by todays often incomplete standards he would have been some light heavyweight champ, a domineering one if he had stayed true to size but the prize was the big one everyone wanted, THE HEAVYWEIGHT CROWN. Cruiserweight at 190 would have been just as satisfying but everyone is so large these days.
