    depends where the money is. He can still make welterweight and light middle so it wwill depends where the biggest money fight is.

    Why not?

    It isn't like he was downing pork rinds by the bag and rolling around his cot in a Snuggie while serving his time.

    Love Floyd. But it's strange to me that a man with such a big mouth can stay quiet this long.
    Should fight Bradley next at ww, no matter what the ppv # would be. Then a mega fight before he retires for good. Right now he is just sitting out the sport

    This is honestly out in the blue right now. Prison doesn't appear to have effected Floyds body, however no one can say for sure right now how moving down 10 pounds or so in weight will effect him (assuming he's around 155-160) my personal opinion would be that he shouldn't have too much trouble making welterweight, however I believe we saw in the Ward-Dawson fighting at 175 for virtually your whole career 7-8 pounds can effect you. Floyd on the other hand has just had the two fights at light-middleweight in the past 5 years so I don't think it would have a great effect on him and the fact he has weighed well within the limit in both fights also works in his favour of moving down in weight. I could be completely wrong though.
