Gives me great pleasure to say this** IMO**

plus bhop dominated his division, has floyd? bhop may have taken on smaller fighters then him but he took care of business unlike floyd. floyds division is filled with threats he aint have the balls to take care of.

Thats quite an oxymoron Rains.. The whole premise of this conversation was to draw an illustration of how Floyd is all of a sudden fighting nothing but smaller fighters. So what your implying is Floyd is doing nothing wrong as long as he keeps fighting smaller guys coming up in weight like Hopkins

Again its foolish to try and compare a severly lacking Middleweight division that BHop ruled than the golden Era of the 140's today.

Point being you cant rake on Floyd for fighting 2 guys back to back that were not Welters and than laud Hop for doing it. Sorry dosent add up, any way you spin it, undeniably Hops biggest wins were against guys that were naturally smaller than him.

I am not tainting Hop's career he deserves all of his due and accolades, I'm just making a comparison on how its a blatant double standard

so your going with the excuse that the welter is at a golden era so that gives floyd the reason not to try clear up the division? What I was saying is it wouldnt be a bad thing if floyd had cleared up 147, like what bhop did with the middleweight division. Fighting smaller fighters who come to him at 147 after clearing up his division or atleast have 1 or 2 fights in the direction of clearing it up would be all good. Not how his doing it now, showing no effort to clear up what you say is a golden era of the welters but declaring himself atg by picking on smaller fighters.

Would be interesting to see who floyd fights next.

Lesser fighter but bigger guys then JMM did better then JMM against floyd, but weight had nothing to do with the results still right?

I went on record as saying if 1-2 fights from now if Floyd is fighting Michael Katsidis and Humberto Soto, than yea he is an idiot and will lose my respect.Given the circumstances of his 2 megafights against DLH and Hatton, coupled with a comeback fight against JMM, give the guy a break already. Its clearly obvious that he is going to fight Mosely and if victorious then the winner of Pac vs Cotto. What more could you ask for?
