He's up there. Just gotta get past winner of Margarito/Williams. ...He better watch out for that Clottey guy too
The only thing that has made me think he will fail when it comes to the really High profile fights is the way he behaves when his chin is checked by a solid shot......... He has a while to go yet.....
On par with Hatton as he has moved up a weight division and has won a championship and was able to estabalish himself better. However, Hatton, albeit at a latter stage of their carreers, took out two big name opponents and was the lineal champ at 140. They were both great wins. The Zoo win, really wasn't that impressive, but the Castillo win definitely sold me. Both are below Mayweather as the Pretty Boy has shot up from Super Feather to Jnr. Middle, and captured the WBC belt in each division. Sure, he didn't beat the best of the division in some of the divisions that he rode through, but his goal was set to be a champ at 5 weight classes before 30. That's a huge accomplishment. Anyhow, these 3 are kind of like modern day versions of Duran, Leonard, Hearns of the 80's. If these 3 can get it on, then boxing can be as big as it's ever been.
Hatton and Shane Mosley Winky Wright would own him but i think its unfair given that Winky has been at 160 and above for the past few years to include him
he ko's hatton at 147, and hatton would maul him, and possibly stop him late at 140. floyd would score on him all night, very easily like a cheap hooker, scoring a comfy ud.
