    Wasn't this the same thinking when he fought Ouma and Spinks? And those guys are not in Mayweather's class skill-wise, and Spinks' chin is not as good as Mayweather's.

      Definitely. Ouma has a good chin, but he ate tons of punches from Taylor, a natural middleweight, and was never in any real danger of being stopped. Spinks didn't get hit much to his credit, but Mayweather is a lot more elusive than Spinks AND he hits back. Judah destroyed Spinks after all, but he was never able to catch Mayweather with a bomb.

        Like I said, if he fights like he did against Spinks... EASY WIN for PBF... And until I see something different from Taylor, my opinion will stay the same... Taylor did not take advantage of the much smaller Spinks... What makes you think he will against PBF... And I think we all can agree, if Floyd is able to pick his shots and expect only a few punches coming back per round, he will win another easy, "boring" fight...

        I put the " " on boring because I am never bored with a PBF fight...

            after watching spinks maybe mayweather over taylor....but it would only depend on how the judges go by...pressure or accuracy

              Floyd's to small for middleweight so probably taylor.

                Pretty good analyses so far, guys. Only makes me want to see this fight come about more.

                  If cory spinks come that close to beating taylor (i personally believe HE DID), then floyd will walk all over jermain taylor and just win a UD.

                    If Taylors last two performances are indicative of how he would perform...Mayweather by fairly easy UD. If Spinks didn't get stopped or even hurt really then I don't think Taylor can hurt Mayweather and I know Mayweather is a better boxer with more pop than Spinks. On the point of historical significance, it would look a lot better on paper than in reality. Yes Taylor is undisputed MW champion and on some p4p lists but after his last couple performances he surely should not be on anyone's top 25 p4p list. Furthermore, the guys best wins were incredibly close, ugly UDs against Hopkins and a gift draw to Wright (even if you think it was a draw that was the BEST possible decision, no way Taylor won this fight). Also Taylor clearly has shown that he is susceptible to being beaten by smaller skilled guys because he simply hasn't gotten any better since he won the title. To illustrate, does anybody think Mayweather beats Pavlik (Pavlik probably is not as good of a fighter as Taylor but I think its a much more difficult match for Mayweather. I guess what I am saying is that styles make fights and this would be like RJJ CHOOSING John Ruiz as a tailor made HW to take down and hence not that impressive in terms of historical significance.

                      mayweather's a great boxer, but taylor is just too big and strong for mayweather... i think he'd overwhelm him
