I hope it does......at least he's fighting a true WW like we've been asking. I think that's a positive step in the right direction...far better than fighting a Jr WW like Paulie or Tim and force them to move up to WW for anther exhibition. Although the style match up is going to make for an easy night against Kermit......He has a punchers chance.
Anthony I spoke to Yuri about your fight and he said you use your hair as a weapon.:rofl He said he was pissed off because anytime you were up close he had your nappy dreads in his mouth. true story
I seriously doubt that Floyd will fight Kermit. Too much size, power and risk. Nate Campbell is more likely for a cherry picker like Floyd.
I know your not hating on Floyd in this post but I do want to address what you said about the "style" matchup. Floyd has a "style advantage" over every single one of his possible opponents right now though. That being Paulie, Nate, Collazo, Quintana, Bradley, I'd even argue he has a great style matchup against Paul Williams although many might disagree. I think if he fights Cintron it will be a very good move and do alot to help his reputation. Cintron is a very good fighter with his only losses coming to Margo, who Cintron had an AWFUL style matchup with and could very likely be due to Margo cheating. And also even if you scored the Martinez fight for Martinez, Cintron still gave him a very close fight and that speaks loudly towards his ability.
Until i see floyd school a legit welterweight,then i will agree with u,but all this talk of floyd doing this and that don't mean sh** if he doesn't fight these guys.
But Floyds fought top class opposition before and shown his skills. Like Judah, Castillo and Corrales. I agree he does hesitate abit when someone has abit of power but u cant deny his pound4pound best. Is that what you mean?
When Floyd fought Oscar at 154lbs, I would favor that version of Oscar over almost ever WW today. Pacman made Oscar look awful at 147lbs and everyones mind is clouded because of it. That was a risky fight for Floyd to take and a very good win on his resume.
I'm gonna speak truth to u,mayweather is waiting to see how good mosley looks against berto and if mosley goe's out and destroys berto,i bet any amount of money that mayweather either retires or fights a guy he knows he can beat and then retire.
