Ward vs Floyd at 160.

[Silkeyjoe]

Ward is a 168 pounder n Floyd started out at 130. Not a fight worth talking about. At least against GGG Floyd will have the mobility n speed advantage, although he will still be considerably smaller n less powerful. 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.

Bullshit...

154 was much better than 160 when Sergio moved into it...no need to start lying..

I cant think of any 154 fighter at the time who was considered as dangerous as the likes of Pavlik. Williams was class but wouldnt consider him dangerous as he was more of a high work rate guy then a killer puncher and Martinez was robbed against him. The only dangerous guy I can think of is Margarito and at this time he was competing at welter.

Floyd should take on Sergio or GGG at middleweight never mind Ward or Hopkins.

[Bo-Bo24]

Would be a terrible match, Ward would be completely weight drained whilst Floyd would be even more cautious than normal. It would be hyped up for sure but neither would be close to their best at that weight, and that goes for if Floyd fought Hopkins too.

[Syntax Error]

This is an unrealistic wish.

Ward is far too big for Mayweather Jr.

Mayweather can't stretch that far, especially fighting someone as formidable as Ward.

This is one of those match ups that is dangerous and obvious. Floyd unless he got TKO'd early would suffer damage because Ward is not clumsy. He is quite dangerous and bigger. Floyd is good but so is Ward and Ward is not a novice. Floyd does not have the power to back up Ward unless there is a Catch weight and Ward has to come down 25 pounds from his walking around weight in a short period of time. Remember Roy Jones? That meal after the weigh would probably hurt Floyd if Ward gets enough time to chow down.

Just hypothetically speaking, of course..... but if Ward wasn't a Super Middle, this fight could be made.

Floyd should take on Sergio or GGG at middleweight never mind Ward or Hopkins.

Floyd was 148lbs in the ring in his last fight..he's simply too small.


Here's a thought:

Why can't GG take on Ward??

He's 32 y/o with Ouma being the ONLY ex champion he's ever faced.

Seems like the bar is set lower for the foreign guys for some strange reason.
By the time he steps up the sport will have passed him by.

Because hes too small. If a black man can use this excuse surely a fragile white man can too?

The fragile BM has been moving up since he was 22...the fragile WM is 32 and hasn't moved once.

Time for the fragile WM to "challenge himself" and take some risks.

Floyd has been outweighed by damn near 20lbs....lets see GG's overrated ass spot somebody(a CHAMPION at that) 20lbs.

Time for you white guys to raise the bar on your old heroes.

What Floyd has been moving up to fight is the equivalent of GGG moving up to fight Stieglitz or Abraham, which no one wants to see. Floyd has never moved up to fight a top P4Pr at a higher weight.

And what was going on at 160?

Nothing at all.
