I heard the exact opposite.....Arum said the fight will be at 147 with Josh and that is documented. The rumors about 144 came from a fan site for Floyd. At 144 Josh may be weight drained but he'll still be bigger and stronger than Floyd. Tim moving up in weight could be slower, even less powerful than he is already and fighting a bigger man in Floyd. Tim is a very solid Jr WW. I'm just not sold on him being able to fight at WW.
see again with the hate, you cant talk boxing mate, keep gettin caught up in bein anti floyd. he tried fighting with pac man, pac ran. tried fightin shane, shane had tooth ache. was corrales a threat? jesus chavez? de la hoya? judah? castillo? gatti?
from what i've heard 144 is confirmed. he is very solid at LWW true. he will only slow if he goes up in the wrong fashion. khan hasnt slowed, pac hasnt slowed, floyd hasnt slowed.
Shane called Floyd out right after the Marquez fight and got nothing. Gatti(RIP) wasn't a threat to Mayweather you saw what happened to him.
floyd called shane out after shane beat vargas, and got nothing. yes we saw what happened. doesnt mean he wasnt a threat. like saying hearns wasnt a threat to iran barkley
Was there any offer made to Shane Mosley? Your boy has called everyone out but actions speak louder than words. While guys like Mosley,Cotto,Margo,Williams foight each other your boy finds excuses not to fight them. And Gatti?please man.
Hearns WAS a threat in the first fight. He had the tools but got caught and TIMBER! was all she wrote. Look at that interview again. Shane said he'd go on vacation and "Me and Floyd can meet up next year". He fought Vargas twice that year and if it's anyone's fault for Mosley-May not happening in 2007 it's DLH for making Shane step down so the DLH-May fight could happen.
Because he wanted to fight Pacquaio, unless you think he should have walked away from such a fight to battle Mosley?
the guy has beaten 6 beltholders whilst they were champ. he has beaten the top ranked fighters in most divisions he's fought in. gatti is bein overlooked cos floyd destroyed him. but at the time it was a tough fight for floyd
washed up post fight. pre fight was a threat. kinda like mayorga v forrest. but only floyd boxed with his head and not his heart.
Dude get of fraud's nuts already,you trying too hard to justify some of his choices,nobody with half a brain or any knowledge of boxing ever thought that Gatti was a threat to fraud,stop reaching man.
I wouldn't say overlooked but all those wars didn't help his career later on and it was an easy fight for Floyd. I hope Floyd fought Casamayor or Tzuyu instead...
