    How much stronger do you guys think Floyd is than JMM? Im thinking at least 2 weight divisions.

    Floyd was not noticeably outmuscled by Oscar at 154.

    JMM did look to have a smaller frame than Juan Diaz and have trouble with Diaz's strength early on at 135, before his punch accuracy wore Diaz down.

    There's your answer, sadly.

    Floyd belongs at welterweight he has decent power as a welterweight his ko of Hatton had more to do with the fact that Hatton jumped intoit. It was a perfectly timed punch.

    Casamayor and Diaz both outweighed him on the days of the fights and he could handle it. He KO'd both despite giving up weight--quite remarkable huh! I think that due to the fact that Floyd has bad hands we should not expect him to try for a ko instead it will be Floyd relying on his jab and a couple of combos to steal a round.

    I don't think Floyd is going to try to muscle him and risk giving up the body. So the only advantage Floyd really has is mobility at the higher weight.

    If Floyd is thinking of a super fight with Pac and a bigger share of the pot, he better give a good show. Pot-shotting a smaller JMM won't do that. Floyd should show a good convincing win, it's what paying fans want to see.

    Mayweather would be stronger if the fight was at 135 anyways. PPL tend to forget that mayweather has preety good power, just hes such a small WW that its hard to KO those guys
