According to the Ring Magazine, Floyd has been the #1 Welter Weight for 102 weeks.

Floyd became a Welter Weight on Nov 19, 2005 to face Sharmba Mitchell Floyd took him out in 6
Note: Paul Williams took out Sharmba Mitchell in 4

Floyd has not fought a Welter Weight since Nov 04, 2006

On Sept 09, 2008 Floyd will be facing ODLH. Oscar has not been a Welter Weight since the year 2001.

With this being said, Floyd will have had that WBC trinket for nearly 2 years with out defending it
against a true Welter Weight. WTF!

BTW, anyone who says that Ricky is a Welter Weight should be laughed at and banned from this forum.

Floyd has already said he is not trying to fight any Welter Weights.
Why is he still allowed to hang on to this belt?

OUCH!

Reality Check people!
