If I recall correctly, Floyd became P4P #1 very shortly after Roy Jones first loss to Tarver. He was #2 behind Jones for quite some time. BHop was #3.
I definitely think so. He may not be an ATG, but he was one of the most popular guys in modern boxing.
Nah... Morales is just a determined warrior and styles make fights.
Berto. Will be a good fight.
He said 'weight' singular, does not win fights, as in just because a guy weighs more, does not guarantee him to win. Regarding the catchweights,...
Smarter maybe... although he's never really been a cerebral fighter. Reflexes and athleticism have definitely declined though.
Sugar ain't what he used to be, but he's definitely not a Margarito. Pac isn't gonna go to blows with Shane like that and not pay.

Every Floyd fight is a PPV event, and people will pay to see it. Fights like Judah vs. whats his name and Maidana vs. Morales were PPV fights....
