IMO he beats them all
errol is a bit basic and average speed and overrated power
PAC will give him trouble because of his explosiveness of his feet but is entirely too small gets stopped mid rounds
Floyd will last the distance, other non punchers like Gavilan took his the distance and also trouble him with elusiveness and speed, Floyd is cagey and has a good enough chin to last but is handed his first professional defeat as a pro and clearly
Crawford tries to use all his skills and tricks but Robinson has too much fire power and speed.....gets dropped a few times 10th round tko for Ray
Leonard has the best shot....they balance each other out......leonard will when on the outside, quicker reflexes and lighter feet.....Robinson has the height sturdier chin and power.......this fight will be rays first kd at 147.......he tries to box robinson but robinson is cutting him off and matching his speed...when he grits his teeth to dig shots, he isnt hurting leonard.....leonard lands more shots but Robinsons are more telling....kd makes the difference.....Robinson wins in a competitve but clear 8-4 type fight
Hey troll I usually like you, but this thread was from 6 years before you even came here. When everyone was saying Floyd was #1 all time. So shut your mouth.
Hey crazy idiot Look up him vs sammy angott george cliff tony freddie valentine andy nonnels and tony ancona Dykes,same obsolete tech and flaws as the older one that fought gene/jake/joey and others,looks like you still can't make him more advanced
Most of the fighters mentioned beat bigger men than themselves (except Floyd) but none of them fought ELITE big fighters. You are asking for them to fight an ATG legendary big fighter. All of them BTFO
End of thread. Will people stop posting these shithaus threads?

SRR. fought 15 rounds with same day weigh ins. None of that walking around at 180 and rehydrating back to 169.
A guy that knows his stuff rarer than water in a desert.
I don't see a guy on that list with higher boxing IQ then Mayweather.
Mayweather can decision all those guys. Too good defensively, he can neutralize all of them.
You base this off Floyd beating past prime pac? Floyd not fought spence and bud when he had chance to.
Floyd wouldn't fight prime SRR, so for sure, Floyd could beat past prime SRR
SR R got resume equal or better than them all. But don't know if he beats all of them or any of them
Im only talking about inside fighting because bojangles said Robinson is much better inside.
You really need to stop strawmanning.
Ray was better inside cause he fought trash that never would give trouble to pac
Only crazy people who never seen after his era say ray over people who fought way after him he looks really basic and flawed would be destroyed by all these legends fast
Agreed completely. Floyd's ideal weight is probably 140. He couldve been GOAT at 140 but all the A side attractions were at 147 and 154 so he moved up for them...
It's tough for me to think Floyd doesnt go the distance with ANY WW in history. Obviously there are a few that trouble and/or beat him as WW wasnt even his optimal weight class. But Floyd has a chance to beat any WW in history even if hes not the favorite (SRL, SRR, Armstrong, etc)...theres not a single WW fight where Floyd is to be dominated. Not a single one.
floyd would have been the goat had he stayed at 140....hed have surpassed tszyu, pryor and Chavez as thegoat there
SRL and Floyd see the final bell. The other three get knocked out
I think SRL wins 1 maybe even 2 of 3 fights
Floyd vs SRR is a much fairer matchup than Floyd vs SRL. SRR began as a lightweight and is closer to Floyd in size
But SRR style is harder for Floyd than the textbook SRL
SRR was hard... Period.
Had floyd started at 140 instead of 130 he'd be more equipped for the ATGs at 147....he is simply a great fighter who won the title at 147 i dont see him as an elite ATG welterweight although thats where most of his biggest wins came...it was far from his best weight

You can stop pretending you’ve watched Robinson now.
Robinson is definitely not a much better inside fighter than Pacquiao, although you’re entitled to your opinion. Pacquiao is one of the most dangerous fighter’s to trade with because of what he can do when it goes inside with that bob and weave and overhands especially. Robinson tied up, and occasionally flurried inside, sometimes with great success, Pacquiao has done similar things. Pacquiao can literally trade near point blank, not just flurry, but dodge and counter looking out for everything. Randy Turpin beat Robinson inside first, then had him guessing the range all night if I remember that right. Turpin was smothering, Fullmer was beating him inside, Lamotta is a big plodder. All completely different ball game to fighting Pacquiao inside. I don’t think he’s any more comfortable fighting backing up neither. Pacquiao has moved much more consistently than I have ever seen footage of Robinson doing so.
There have been numerous fighter’s who went the distance with Robinson, he doesn’t win by KO just by virtue of being a puncher, and if Castellani can drop him (I think it was inside too, with a left hook), then so can Pacquiao. As can Robinson KO Pacquiao. But I definitely do not see this as the mismatch you lot seem to do.
I’ve had discussions on Pacquiao’s inside fighting before and posted lots of examples through the years.
This is what I could find (embed doesn’t seem to be working anymore so changed to links)

Pacquiao inside with a 5’11 Margarito with an 18lb advantage (bigger than Lamotta ever had over Robinson and who hits harder than Lamotta).
Pacquiao has also shown on a few occasions fighting in and out of clinches. A few times Bayless saved Mayweather from Pacquiao whacking him when they got in a clinch.
Amazing!
Never thought about it that way. Margarito even weighed 165lbs come fight night vs 148lbs Pacquiao!
Peak Pacquiao was ruthless!
Long write up for nothing. You running out of ideas for manny.
Even IF Ray isn't better inside, manny can't keep the fight inside.
manny struggles to cut off elite movers and would lunge more vs 5 ft 11 SRR.
manny reaches and gets caught by Ray's signature counter uppercuts.
- -Yo, Granny, Robby a fighter first and foremost, not a runner/stinker like you sissyboytoy, a floater/sinker by any other name as Billy Shakes likes to remind us.
