Its amazing people judge him as a WW when he is naturally a 130 pounder, and yet he became the best WW in the world, and everyone knows he would have been favored to beat Cotto, and everyone(I hope) knows he would have been way too fast for Margarito(think Baldomir).
Yeah i often laugh when ppl claim he only fights smaller men and not real WW's when he is a natural 130 pounder. Everyone said Hatton was the smaller man when in fact he walks around naturally much larger.
Hatton would walk around much larger because of BODYFAT but come fight time Floyd actually has more muscle mass than Hatton. It's all about bone structure and muscle mass, which at 5'8" tall floyd would be BIG for a lightweight. Floyd being so great at lightweight does not excuse him from not fighting the best welters out there.
