    Floyd moved up because the fight with the two he wanted ricky and miguel could not happen so he moved to 147 so that he could fight judah who had vacated 140. there were no real worthy contenders other than judah ricky and cotto. the only one he knew he could get a fight with was judah so he moved up.

    So, in fact he beat 2 of the top 10.
    One being Gatti, who was quite obviously shot by then.

    Yep, impressive.


    If you don't think weight classes make a difference, why do you think guys have catchweight fights?

    Why couldn't Winky and Hopkins just have fought at 175 then. Or maybe weight does matter?

    Or on that, do you think Winky Hopkins plays out EXACTLY the same at middle as at light heavy???

    A few pounds can make a huge difference. Just ask Castillo.

    Mitchell was still ranked.

    Gatti, at one point, was #1 contender.

    Corley was 140 contender for a long time.

    Mayweather didn't have his best stint at 140, for sure.

    He still ended up beating the best 140 pounder in the world though, no matter how what way anyone tries to spin it. Just like he beat the best 147 pounder in the world (before he became the #1 himself)

    Interesting enough, the ones that he didn;t fight were the class and the future of the division.....not surprizing...follwoing PBF plan..the route to succes is the road of least obstacles...which is fine ...but them don;t come a proclaim your self greatness...without TCB against the best....hell Casamayor still frustrated the way PBF flew the coup in the middle of the night...:rofl
