Duran (Leonard 1 fight) vs. Mayweather (Cotto fight) @ 12 rounds?

I got Duran late stoppage

Prime Duran severely beats past prime Floyd. Prime Duran also beats Prime Floyd in any way that he wants, most likely a severe beating as well. A PRIME Duran is a HORRIBLE stylistic match up for Floyd, let alone this version.

Im not sure if you know, SRL was one of the best and most well rounded fighters in history I am aware of that, I'm just saying he couldn't slip shots as well as Floyd - there's no shame in that, nobody really can.

Duran was closer to his prime so I'd pick him, hell Mayweather is 35 and Duran only had one loss and was 30 at a better weight for him...if it was a prime for prime fight I'd go with Mayweather...Just as fast as Leonard with a better defense

Duran would have done what Cotto did X 179 SO he'd lose 1,432 rds to 537?

Somewhat agree..... I agree with your Duran opinion on Floyd but Manny is a whole-nother animal. Duran could only fight you one way. Manny is not a dumb fighter and would catch my boy rushing in with about 3-4 punches and side-step before he could return fire. He is too atheletic, too fast, too strong, and he punches from angles no other fighter can. Manny by decision or possibly TKO.

SRL lasted with him though, and as great as he was, he doesn't have Floyd's defensive capabilities. I'd give it to Duran by decision against a prime Floyd or the Floyd we saw on Saturday. Im not sure if you know, SRL was one of the best and most well rounded fighters in history

wtf? A past prime Floyd at 35 vs. a Prime Duran at 28. hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

lmao agreed. I got Duran by brutal stoppage. That Duran vs Prime Floyd still might end in a brutal stoppage. That Duran vs Pac would also end in Duran killing Pac, both guys as great as they are couldn't last with a prime duran SRL lasted with him though, and as great as he was, he doesn't have Floyd's defensive capabilities. I'd give it to Duran by decision against a prime Floyd or the Floyd we saw on Saturday.

Duran would have done what Cotto did X 179

Duran had Floyd types stamina & knew how to pressure. The minute Floyd touched the ropes, the fight looks like Cotto-Floyd round 8 up until about the 9th round where Floyd quits or leaves parallel.

Floyd is past his prime-still good, Duran was prime. Probably Duran by a close SD. Prime for Prime, it'd be different I feel. Floyd would have his hands full no doubt. He definitely shouldn't ever trade with Duran, and I doubt he would have.

Another thing to take into account is that Duran was deceptively fast. I'd pay to see this fight - it'd be one of the great ones.

Who wins this one in a 12 rounder? Duran would KO Floyd. FLoyd is going against one of the best inside games in the history of boxing, power in both hands, a great chin, and great ring IQ. Duran breaks him down, probably tko's floyd on the ropes.

Who wins this one in a 12 rounder? Floyd is 35 years old. Duran was near prime. KInda skewed. I'll vote floyd by decision but duran by UD is just as likely.

Duran. Probably on points.

Mayweather's in trouble.

Good match up, hard one to predict. I'll take Duran by close decision.
