    Floyd wouldn't win a title at a catchweight. Last time I checked he went up to 154 and fought dela hoya at the proper weight limit. Actually he has won titles in 5 different weight classes without the need to ask for a catchweight. Pac on the other hand would have won his last 2 world titles in his last 2 weight divisions at 2 separate catchweights.

    No. He'd be a shitty opponent for Floyd, just like he is for Pac. He's not on Floyd's level and has nothing to really trouble him. Floyd beats him easy just like Pac will.

    He went up to 150 without making Oscar go down to 150.

    No, he had the chance to fight Margarito when it would have meant something.

    No, there's no excuse for fighting TACOCHEATO when Paul Williams, Sergio Martinez, Andre Berto, and even Tim Bradley are all on the loose.

    Really? Really? He is stylistically challenging for Mayweather? What part of him? His blocking punches with his face defense? Or is it his wide slow punches?
