    Again I'm not really interested in that side. Was more saying its a legit match up and I favour Winky.

    I've already debunked this previously, it was never a realistic proposition or scenario. Ever

    Floyd was still a JWW when Winky had already moved up to MW to fight Tito. I want this specific line of B.S. to stop

    It's not BS Northpaw. Did Floyd set out a challenge to Winky? Yes he did.
    Did Winky accept terms. Yes he did.
    Was there a huge size difference? Yes there was.
    Did that stop floyd was making a challenge. No it did not.
    Can you debunk Floyd making a challenge to Winky? No, you can't, because regardless of size, regardless of how realistic, it happened. Floyd is to blame for this discussion being a realty.

    Im surprised Winky hasnt taken all the venom from posters for actually pursuing a fight with a guy THREE DIVISIONS below him.

    Well, not actually surprised...

    Floyd called Winky out. Said he'd knock him out. Floyd requested 154 and an 8 pound rehydration limit. Winky said yes.

    Maybe they can still get it on as a PPV Catchweight Exhibition Fight? I won't buy it but some might.

    Boring fighters and vastly overrated, Hearns would have toyed with both of them.

    Floyd was overrated and Wright weren`t that great either.

    This would have been one of the worst fights ever seen.

    Obviously Wright would've won that is why Floyd ducked him. Lets face it without cheating Floyd is hopeless and probably would've just been a club fighter in Michigan.

    Duran went from lightweight straight to welter and beat Leonard.

    Mosley also skipped junior welter in order to pursue DelaHoya at welter.

    Didn’t Floyd himself drag Marquez up two divisions from Light to welter?

    I’m sure there are other examples.

    Anyway, the idea that Floyd couldn’t have fought Winky because of weight classes is just not true. It’s an excuse. Other fighters have made the leap.

    Floyd also said that he wanted to fight Sergio Martinez at a catchweight... until he saw P-Will get iced.
