    To be fair Floyd is a 5 weight world champion, he could probably do well at 154, but i feel 160 may be to far.

    Does Floyd have an entire island nation that adores him?

    Well you're right but that's because Floyd isn't from a 3rd world nation with no other notable athletes to show for. PAc is fortunate in that sense. Many pinoys try to live their dream through him..

    Im waiting for your response in the other thread.

    You mean the title he won from washed-up panty-wearing Oscar? lmao. Please. Floyd needs to fight a real, prime WW, not tomato cans and hasbeens. Floyd was a great, great champion at the lower weight classes, but he simply hasn't fought the top WWs of his era.

    They have athletes that are famous to them.

    So the reason Floyd isn't universally respected in the United States is because we have other, world famous sports celebrities?

    It's also a fact that he only took this fight because the "Undisputed WW champ" at the time was a career journeyman, who incidentally, had just beaten possibly the most mentally fragile fighter of the decade.

    Let's move on.

    Judah, Baldomir? Come on already. I've been watching boxing long enough to know that you're a Floyd nuthugger. But, it's alright. Just say so. I"m calling it as I see it. Cotto, Mosley, Williams, Margarito...etc., etc. If he's WW king, fight a top WW already.

    If he wants to really prove himself he should come back and fight Pac for a tune up, then Cotto, then Williams. The poosi shan't dare!
