Floyd looks better at JMW and possible at 160 than 135/140

    for the following reasons, he said he woke up at 146 that means he was a LOT lighter and faster than 165 lbs Canelo, guys fighting at 154 and 160 are heavier and somewhat slower than the guys fighting at 135/140 of eyars ago.

    so the the Extra weight and muscle these big guys pack are actually not helping them when facing Floyd, while smaller faster guys are able to pressure Floy more..

    The problem is power. What fighter at 160 would Floyd have enough power to hurt?

    I agree, but Floyd does not need to hurt them, you heard Canelo, he said: Floyd is not a power puncher he uses speed to Tag you..

    and thats all he needs and ofcourse a very solid defense

    Floyd is still a Junior Welterweight fighting at 147/154. Bring on Valuev next no?

    no HW or LHW heck or even SMW but I can see floyd taking a MW Belts(WBC/WBA/IBF/WBO) from MW Boxers, he is just too fast to be tag and he will land at will all night,

    Now may be as good a time as any to challenge Martinez. He's slipped enough for Floyd to beat him at 160 imo.
