    Floyd's too small for 160
    is there any reason you want him to fight there except to see him get beat?

    pacman is the only name I want Floyd to fight

    That's why it was strictly a money fight.

    There was speculation that dlh didn't truly give it is all,
    And Bhop dwarfed him in the ring

    Who truly thought dlh was going to walk away with the win?

    And yes you're right, it was at a catch weight, dlh dropped with a body shot.

    Hopkins went up to LHW. Why can't Golovkin do the same?

    So did Duran but he didn't stop at 154. Look what Pac did. Hopkins is getting his dues now that he's fighting at 175. Jones started out at 154 and fought as a heavyweight. Greb fought Tunney, . SRR fought at 147 then jumped to 160 and then almost won the light heavy weight title.

    so look you want to be in the top 15 of all time this is simply what you have to be willing to do you have to be willing to enter the ring and the underdog at a higher weight. Then win or loss, you'll get respect for trying to beat someone you're not suppose to be able to beat.

    There's plenty of things to criticize Mayweather about. Not fighting at MW isn't one of them. Oscar(who started out at LW and fought once at SFW)was a lot bigger than Floyd and even he was a little too small for MW. Hell, Guillermo Jones used to fight at WW. Does that mean that top level fighters that start out to WW should be expected to fight all the way up to CW?

    What does GGG have to do with this thread?:patsch

    BTW Hopkins was ran out of the middleweight division by Taylor.
    Couldn't go to 168, because he was scared of Joe Calz.

    He went to the weak lh division, where the champ there was a fat actor, chilling with Rocky.:deal

    You mean other than the fact that the OP is suggesting that Floyd should go up to 160 to fight him? :oops:

    And lol at Hopkins moving up to beat the man at 175 because he was "scared" of Slappy Joe.

    I have reason to believe that every professional athlete on the planet has used PEDs. It's fairly easy to get away with using them and many of them really work. With potentially tens of millions of dollars on the line, who wouldn't use them?

    Martinez offered him the fight at 154 since thats Floyds so called 'limit' but if wants the lineal middleweight title they can do it at 155 you twat.
