Just wondering - what do you guys think about Vernon Forrest? I dont see his name being mentioned too much. Not saying he would beat Mayweather, but I'd sure like to see them hook up. I thought he looked great his last fight, but I'm not sure how much you can read into it based on who he was fighting...Comment

If injuries didn't derail Vernon's career I seriously think he could have been one of the greats, well at least one of the best fighters of our era.Just wondering - what do you guys think about Vernon Forrest?

It's not mentioned much because Forrest isn't coming back down to 147, and Forrest doesn't have a big enough name for Floyd to jump up to 154... the fight won't happen. It would probably be a good fight though.Just wondering - what do you guys think about Vernon Forrest? I dont see his name being mentioned too much.

I would also like to see Mayweather Jr. vs. Spinks, because that would be a great fight, but certainly not from an excitement standpoint.Comment

Sure someone can beat him. Perhaps it will be Hatton. PBF will be under pressure for this one. Being favourite against a fellow unbeaten fighter. Can he handle being favourite against a guy who he isnt sure if he can beat.
Hes not sure he can beat Hatton cos Hatton handled a guy so easily who PBF had severe trouble with for 2 fights.Comment

He did okay being a favorite against a 33-0 Diego Corrales.Sure someone can beat him. Perhaps it will be Hatton. PBF will be under pressure for this one. Being favourite against a fellow unbeaten fighter. Can he handle being favourite against a guy who he isnt sure if he can beat.

He also could probably give less of a **** that Hatton just beat Castillo. 5 years does a lot to a fighter, and there was a difference in weight class, etc. Not really that useful for comparison.Comment

The only fighters I would favor beating Floyd, was the prime Kostya or Mosly. Williams, Mosly (current version), Cotto, and hatton have the best chance, but i would favor Floyd over any of them.i dont know too much about current boxers, ive only been following for like two years. im sure you guys have discussed this before, but do you think anyone can beat floyd mayweather?
my ex-boyfriend got me into boxing and my favorite is oscar dela hoya; since mayweather beat oscar, is there anyone else who maybe could beat him?Comment

to go outside da box and out of da division i believe Hopkins could beat Floyd he beat a supposedly unbeatable Wink Wright I just think Bernard could do the same to FloydComment

Either Winky or Hopkins vs. Floyd would be very interesting.
Ring generalship vs. athleticism and textbook skills (Hopkins vs. Floyd)
OR
Superb defense vs. athleticism and textbook skills (Winky vs. Floyd)Comment
