Floyd is really a 140 pounder who is winning at 147/154 off of speed n skill. Asking him to fight Hop, Ward, Froch, Martinez...etc. is unrealistic n unfair.
    Agree with you except for Martinez. Martinez is a small middle and imo opinion only went to middle for more of a challenge as light middle was such a weak division at the time. Floyd hand picks his fight at light middle which is why I dont think you can consider him a legit guy at 154.

    Ignore the troll in the clown suit and you are right. Remember Sergio had both belts at the same time and was told by the WBC that he needed to make a choice. 154 was a ghost town and Sergio has always chased the legend of Monzon and decided to go to 160 based on its prestige as much as anything else.

    Too big for Floyd.

    It'd be different if Ward was a slow plodder, but when you have a guy that much bigger with that kind of world class skill, it's a recipe for disaster for Floyd.

    I think Ward would man handle Floyd.
