Ray Leonard already fought a style like FM ........ He fought and beat his dad Floyd Senior ........ Who basically was bigger stronger and had a longer reach than Floyd Jr. and fights the same style cause his Father taught him ........ Ray beat the dog shit out of Floyd Senior all he could do was lay on the ropes and take it like a man ........ The only difference would be Floyd Jr. is a lil faster but he would be to small in every aspect ....... Floyd Jr. does not have good foot speed either just decent hand speed against select opponents ......... If a 33 year Dela Hoya could hit Floyd Ray would knock him out lif he layed on the ropes for 12 rounds ........ Ray by Brutal KO over the smaller man.
Meldrick was better skilled an way tougher and a way faster fighter than Mayweather Jr. and could take a punch he would have made Mayweather fight and Mayweather would have loss because Meldrick would not have ran out of gas he would have been there the hole 12 rounds in his prime. The only reason we are not talking about him as being one of the greatest fighters of all time is because he fought during a time when there were several great young fighters. Unlike now.
Floyds hole record is dominated by flat footed latin fighters with no hand speed or foot speed. How can this guy even be considered great when the closses guy he has fought to him talent wise is a washed up Zab Juda and he was lossing that fight until Zab ran out of gas. He can't even be considered in the same class as guys like Ray Robinson, Ray leonard, Thomas Hearns, Meldrick Taylor, Pernel Whitiker. Chavez, Duran, Benitez, Henry Armstrong, Willie Pep, Sugar Shane Mosely, Arron Pryor, Alexis Aurgreullo, Boom Boom Mancini and the list goes on and on these guys fought everybody out there between 4 or 5 weight classes from Lightwieght to Light heavyweight Maywheather has hand picked his apponents his hole career .......... you cats are brain washed. Do your boxing history he's not even fighting the best out there now......... "OVERATED"

The biggest mistake Maywether could make is not to fight these others guys in the division. It's obvious he is to young to retire and he just got into the big time limelight because of his fight with Oscar. If he doesn't fight Cotta and Paul Williams and some of the other guys in the division he will end up like Roy Jones ........ Roy fought everybody "But" the other Champions of his era and after he started getting knocked out everyone started saying he never fought anybody and that deminished he legacy "A WHOLE LOT" no longer was he considered as possibly the greatest fighter of all time but just a great "Athelete" who fought limited competition in his career. Mayweather is on the same path if he doesn't start fighting some real competition he hasn't had any dangerous fights throughout his career and now when his time comes to grasp greatness he's running from it just like Roy did. Now at the age of 38 or 39 Roy is still trying to fight becasue he knows that he fucked up by not fighting the best in his prime. There is no shame in losing to other great fighters and champions but when you get knocked out or lose to C+ fighters that does way more damage to a fighters accomplishments than anything else. If Roy could go back and fight some of those other champions in his prime I bet he would because all he is trying to do now is what we call damage control he knows he will be remembered as an overated glass jaw champion because his resume doesn't say anything otherwise. So if Floyyd doesn't start fighting these other champions then he may suffer a similar fate. The WW division is the most competitive division in boxing......... and he is scared to lose but there's nothing wrong with that.
