    At 154 and below, only Winky can beat Floyd

    However, I don't think Winky could make the 154 lb. limit any more so I think Floyd will remain the king of those below middleweight for a long time.

    I wish Floyd could get down to 140 and fight Pac but I doubt he can make 140 anymore. It would be a great fight, tho.

    I'd say I'd like to see him **** up Ricky Hatton but I don't think Ricky gets by JLC, so it's a moot point.

      What about Mosley, Cotto and Margarito. Don't you envisage any of them giving Floyd problems?

      BTW, Hatton will KO Castillo.

        Only Winky and Mosley would have a chance at beating Floyd 154 and below IMO. Hatton would get outboxed all night. Winky is not going from somewhere around 170 and then to 154. I don't see it. The fights that can be made IMO are...

        Floyd vs Winner of Williams/Margarito
        Floyd vs Mosley
        Floyd vs Winner of Cotto/Judah (If it was Judah I don't know if people wanna see a rematch)

            Mosley can give Mayweather all he can handle.

              If Floyd were to let Cotto land as many clean body shots as he allowed Oscar then I think he would find himself in some trouble. Also, Mayweathers skills are on a different level to Hatton's but Hatton has fought clever fights in the past and with the right tactics he could trouble Mayweather.

                Oscar and Cotto are completely different fighters. DLH's body shots didn't have a meaningful effect on Floyd. If they did Floyd wouldn't have smiled when he was hitting him. Cotto wouldn't fight the same way DLH did.

                  Your right only those two would have a chance against Mayweather. Cotto, Hatton, and Margarito are all to slow to beat PBF. If they were to fight him it would be a replay of the DLH fight and probably even worse. Another name that I would throw in there that could have a chance at Mayweather would be Andre Berto. I know he is young and still unproven, but his hand speed and quickness are amazing along with the fact that he has trememdous power. I guess we will have to wait on him to see how he pans out before the claim could be truely made. Also if Floyd decides to come back.

                    Man the welterweight division is nice. So many fights can be made. I forgot about Berto. Let him fight Clottey lol.
