    Cant see him competing at 160, but who knows.

    Would be quite impressive for a guy who was fighting at 130 up to the age of 24, to eventually win a title at 160.

    Will never happen. He is only willing to fight at 154 if his opponent is a draw. Canelo is the only fighter that could get him to move up in weight one last time.

    Makes me laugh how you all believe this. Floyd will not fight at 160, it just won't happen. He'll stay at 147 and 154...he even said he'd fight Martinez at a catchweight - Ellerbe is talking rubbish

    If Pacquiao beats Marquez in September that fight will be back on the table as well. But Mayweather will find a way to duck him and duck any other threat

    floyd dancing from weight to weight like ***** to avoid fights.

    if this is true then floyds got alot to answer for in picking ghost as his next opponents.

    theres a long list of 154'ers that would make a more competetive fight.

    It's all good to say he can beat anyone at 147 but he hasn't proved he can beat the best at 147 (Pacquiao, Bradley) or the best at 154 (Trout, Canelo)

    In 2007/2008 he also didn't prove he was the best at 147 by avoiding fights with Mosley, williams, Cotto and Margarito...

    Floyd has never proved he is the best welterweight at any point in time since he came into this division

    Geale and Martinez are the only MWs he would consider.

    exactly, some people are so warped with floyd. The guy is the ultimate cherry pick.

    He'll go down as the greatest in history and selecting the most winnabe fights at the right time, for maximum dollar. He's made an art of it since De La Hoya fight.

    Totally - annoys me when Floyd fans get all defensive and think "oh you're a hater" - it's pathetic. If Floyd takes on the winner of Canelo/Trout and beats them I'll be the first to praise him - that would actually be a legacy fight.

    More importantly, if Pacquiao were to convincingly beat Marquez he would have to take him on in early 2014 - again if he did that and won, I'd be the first to praise him.

    He's done nothing since the De La Hoya fight to improve his legacy, in fact it's worsened in my opinion
    It's a shame Castillo never got that decision he deserved, maybe we would have seen a braver Mayweather in his choice of fights - then again maybe people wouldn't be talking about him in the same way either

    If you think he's big enough for middleweight you're a bigger idiot than I thought. Please remove that great man's picture off your worthless user profile, dumbass.
