Tszyu, Gatti, Corrales?
Tszyu gets inside and beats Floyd like he has never felt before. He uses his strength, skill, and punching power to stop Floyd late.
Gatti will depend on what plan McGirt makes and if Gatti can follow it. Floyd is faster and smoother, but Gatti has such power there. My heart says Gatti by late round TKO. I'm going with that
Corrales still has things to prove at lightweight. If he can make the wieght long enough, he can unify the title there before moving up. All the guys there want money and he will bring it. I think the only fight that he won't win easily if at all is against Castillo.
I know what Zoo weigh's, my point is that it's pretty much the same if not less than what Corrales weighed compared to Floyd at 130. You are also still talking about power. Floyd has tremendous speed. Speed is power. What makes you assume that these guys will just walk through Floyd's punches. I think he has more power than you think but even if he didnt your still not going to be abel to just walk through him. If that was the case how come people didnt walk through Sweet Pea's punches, or Ali's punches, or even Chris Byrd's punches. Who do you know that is #for# more stonger and powerful than Mayorga? A littile light punching wimp like Corey Spinks cant keep Mayorga off of him right. Wrong. All those guys have great hand speed and great defense just like Floyd. I dont mind people saying that Zoo will win. I dont even mind people saying that Zoo will win by KO, but if you think that Zoo will just walk through Floyd than your crazy. Floyd wins this fight.
Spinks and Mayorga have always been the same weight class and I'm pretty sure if Spinks could punch harder then Mayorga wouldn't have got to him as much and he would have won more easily. All that fight proves is that Spinks can deal with Mayorga - it proves nothing about PBF. PBF would be dealing with one of the biggest punchers of all time in a division above his natural weight.
Floyd's always had the power to back people up at the lower weights. If you think that his defence would be as effective without that, then you're the crazy one. It's pretty easy to close someone down if you don't give a shit about them hitting you. And when you're as quick and accurate as KT then you can usually make it count when you get there.
All I've said is that the points I've put forward are possibilities as PBF has proved nothing at the weight. If Corley can shake him then KT and a few of the other guys would KO him if they landed.
VS Tszyu-- Floyd beats him to the punch for a while, by Tyzyu eventuly scores a knock out
VS Gatti-- Arturo get completly outclassed
VS Corrales-- A coin flip in my mind, I'm high on Corrales right now. This time areound he wouldn't fight Mayweather's fight, like he did the 1st time.
Chico was fighting Floyd's fight against both Frietas and Cassamora. He hasnt changed that much. I like Chico against almost anyone but Floyd is just a bad style for him that he will never come close to beating

thanks for not jumping on the pbf bandwagon. he's definitely not proven at 147 but he does look pretty at the lower weights. and i don't use the floyd/diego fight as a measuring stick like so mant porcupine heads do.. corrales wasnt mentally or physically fit knowing he was going to jail for an undetermined amount of time.anyone faceing hardtime knows what a bummer it is.it effects you on your job and at home...an all encompessing depressing feelling. bring on a mayweather/corrales rematch at 140 and i see goosen corrales getting sweet sweet revenge.
i would like to see gatti beat the shit out of him.it would be a wonderfully bloody fight.
tszu would be able to obsorbe floyds soft hands and hopefully crack some ribs,break his jaw and detach a retina. ;)
It's obvious that you just dont like Floyd. What makes you think that Chico has any chance against Floyd? He was getting a boxing lesson from Frietas until the late rounds. Floyd is ten times a better boxer than Frietas
You're right in some of what you say, but there are questions to be answered by Floyd at 140. It's wrong to put him at the top of the pile based on one fight at the weight, especially one in which he got shaken by a guy with less power than most of the top guys in the division. Chico may have come in at 147 but KT goes in at 155-160 as do most of the real 140'ers so I think there would definitely be a step up in power for him to deal with. I've never said he won't be able to, I'm just not convinced that he will. He also needs to bring enough power up with him to stop the top guys just walking through his shots to get to him which would definitely have an impact on the effectiveness of the defensive skills that you think will make him prevail.

You act like your trying to make this a power match up. Floyd can do so many more things. People are getting to carried away over the Mitchell fight. Zoo hasnt knocked out everyone and he does better against south paws then right handers. He didnt hurt Tackie, he didnt hurt or look good against Urkal, and he didnt hurt or look good against Leja. Floyd doesnt have tremendous power, but he has enough to sting you. He's been hit by big punchers like Castillo, N'Dou, Sosa, Manfredy and pound for pound Zoo doesnt hit harder then Chico, and he faught Chico at 130 and Chico came in the ring at 147. And how many times have you seen clean shots landed on him and if they did how well did he take the punch

I love it when people like you downplay Tszyu's achievements. I guess some people will never like him no matter what he does. Well I hope this fight goes ahead sometime so he can prove himself to be the best AGAIN!!
By the way Judah was supposed to be the "next" Pernell Whittaker with power until Tszyu crushed him & Mitchell was the Number 2 ranked 140pounder in the world when Tszyu fought him.
Also, Floyd is one of my favourite fighters so It's not like I have anything against him, it's just at 140 I think Tszyu would be too much for him.
I am also a big Zoo fan and I thought that you were trying to downplay Floyd's win over Corley. Chop had only recently lost to Judah. No harm in that. Zoo has beaten everyone in the division, but that was in the past. The division is new now. Zoo hasnt faced any of the top fighters in the division now except for Mitchell and he was from the old 140. Like I said, I still like Zoo and would pick him against everyone in the division except for Floyd

Of course he's going to be able to hit Tszyu but we don't know if he brings any real power up with him. Are you saying that the only person to ever land a clean shot on him was Corley? KT would get to him at some point no matter how good he is. I'm pretty sure he's never been hit has hard as KT would hit him so we don't know if he could take it or not.

Zoo has been tagged by less skilled fighters than Floyd. Who has Floyd been tagged by besides a left hand Corley. He never takes much punishment. The only time you hit Floyd is when he let's you and he's picking the shot's with his arms and gloves and rolling on the shots.

PBF's been tagged by less skilled fighters than KT and I'll look forward to seeing his face when that first big shot lands if the fight ever happens. I don't think he can stay away from him for 12 rounds so I'd have to go for KT with a mid to late stoppage.

Mayweahter walks through both Gatti and Corrales. I do think that he wold have to fight pretty well to beat Kostya. He is stronger than anyone Floyd has fought. I do think that Floyd would be to elusive for Kostya and beat him UD.

I see Mayweather beating all of them with Tzsyu making the strongest argument against him. I'd like to see Mayweather V. Corrales II though, just so Diego could give a better account of himself than the first time out.
Imo

You must be joking right? Mayweather the best in the division after one, I repeat one, fight at 140 albeit to Corley. Have you been watching boxing for the past 7 years? Tszyu has taken on all and beaten all in this division, and until proven otherwise should be and IS recognised as THE MAN at 140.
To say mayweather is the best at 140 would be like saying that RJJ was better than Lewis at heavyweight just because he beat Ruiz. Get my drift?
I'd love to see this fight happen although the network's bs won't let it. I think it'd be a competitive fight with Tszyu coming out on top but my main point is that PBF should not be called the best in the division after only one fight against only reasonable opposition.
All that maybe true but none of the fighters he beat were great fighters. Name one of the people Zoo beat that you think wouldve beat Floyd. The best guy he beat was Mitchell and everyone was sweating him for what? For beating Tackie, Phillips, and N'Dou. Judah is so eratic. One fight he looks good and the next he's in a close fight with a bum. Meanwhile Floyd was fighting Chop, Castillo twice, Corrales, Chaves, Sosa, N'Dou, Carlos Hernandez, Manfredy, Vargas, Jukko, Augustus, and The legendary Hernandez. My point is you cant say Zoo is #1 when he was fighting inferior competion, and Floyd was at a lower weight but was fighting the far better competion. You take the overated Mitchell and Judah away and this guy has fought more bums than Hopkins
I agree, Mayweather is the best in the division. Tsysu did beat Sharmba Mittchell but its still 3 rds of action in 2 yrs. I think mayweather wins UD, Tsyzu too old and over the 12 rds he`ll be out worked!

Mayweather is trying to be more exciting recently. If he just made Tszyu miss all night and pot shot him to a 120-108 decision, how exciting would that be?
I give Tszyu a chance because I think that when they trade, Tsyzu has the advantage. I have seen Tsyue take out slicker guys than mayweather.
