    a good chance/favorite: Ike Williams
    Cervantes (havent watched too much of him, but very good boxer, tall ...)
    Meldrick Taylor (prime)
    Kostya (a stalker with boxing skills could be dangerous for both PBF and Pac)
    Arguello (his straight right is a danger for anybody)

    I am sure that a Armstrong would be a total nightmare for Floyd. But I also do think, that Floyd is now in his prime, and wasnt as a lightweight/junior welter.
    Maybe he is in his mental prime (and even then... with these continuous retirements i would not be so sure), but his physical prime is clearly gone.

      I doubt Floyd beats any of the old timers in 45 round championship fights. Under modern rules he has a good shot against anybody.

          At least it's quite plausible and even likely that Oscar wins a decision.

            Yes Oscar would be heavily favored over Floyd

              Yes because Floyd at 130-140 in his 20s was throwing 2 punches per round like he did in his 30s at 147-154...

                This is not to say that Mayweather could not be beaten at 130-140, but it would not be Oscar to do that. It would be someone who could do it all (Duran, Napoles to name a few), or a highly skilled offensive fighter who threw a terrific volume of punches (Pryor).

                  Noone can defeat Floyd at those weights period.

                  41 have tried, 41 have failed.

                    It's 40 (he fought Castillo twice)

                    Castillo came close and 135 and immediate surroundings are stacked with talent. I would never bet *any* money (unless the odds were ridiculous of course) that Floyd could go unbeaten through

                    Saddler
                    Nelson
                    Chavez
                    Arguello
                    Gans
                    Leonard
                    Ross
                    Armstrong
                    Williams
                    Duran
                    Whitaker
                    Pryor
                    Zoo
                    Locche
                    Loi
                    Ortiz
                    Napoles

                    Would you?

                      You do realise that Floyd was too small for 135 at that time and Castillo outweighed him in that fight. Also dont forget he was injured for the first fight.

                      LOL at Ross and Leonard. I would bet on Floyd going through that resume undefeated unless he gets injured during the fight.
