how would u have him vs. Hopkins?...or Winky?...Calzaghe & Taylor even?..forget anyone below 154...becuz what for, when he can have much bigger fights..even Jones would come down to get a crack @ Floyd...Floyd would probably one-side Tito to a decision...165 would probly be his limit..(i doubt he'd wanna make 168 @ the weigh-ins)...but IF he were to beat everyone I named, I'd rank him the greatest even..

then he'd be 5'10".

A MW Mayweather would beat Hopkins, but have MAJOR problems with Winky.

exactly...he can do extra damage @ that height...him n hopkins would be real interesting....hopkins would do whatever it takes to figure out Floyd's puzzle...the match would be a cerebral one...I see no signs of fatigue in that fight...

height doesnt mean power.

valuev is 7 feet tall and he has gone the distance in 12 of his fights.

mayeather wouldn't hit any harder if he was 5'10", he never plants his feet long enough to have any power, he would, probably have a little longer reach

I didn't say anything about power, I just said he'd do more damage, meaning he'd be as quick...and with his frame heavier due to his height, his fists would do heavier damage...

and we all know Floyd doesn't have KO power...

Floyd is good enough to beat anyone at that weight but he may have to be more aggressive!!!

Do any Floyd fans sing this tune???

Hey, this is radio station W-S-K-E-E
We're takin' calls off the wish line
Making all your wacky wishes come true

Hello

I wish Floyd Mayweather was little bit taller,
I wish he was a brawler
I wish I had his girl she looks good
I would call her
I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
and a '64 Impala
I wish he was like six-foot-three
So he could get fights with Hopkins,Winky and James Toney.

I wish Floyd was a little bit taller...
I wish Floyd was a brawler...
I wish Floyd was a little bit taller y'all
I wish Floyd was a brawler

I wish, I wish, I wish...

I think naturally he wont be as elusive as he is now, but then again he will have more reach, its a even trade off.
