PBF has never gotten on his bike so what are you talking about. Do you know the type of fighter PBF was at lightweight compared to how he fights now? There is a very big difference.
    You're basing your statements on welterweight chavez and the guy who had Chavez's number....

    You clearly havent seen much of Chavez....

      I think PBF was pushed to the brink in the 1st Castillo fight since he continued to fight with a hurt shoulder. Why would you need to see PBF pushed to the brink to make a apt assessment on who would win? What does being pushed to the brink have to do with how they're skill sets match up? Are you saying you cant truly judge a fighter until you see them pushed to the brink of collapse or fighting like their life depended on it?

        I have seen a nice amount of Chavez and I feel he would lose a fight to PBF. We can agree to disagree all day everyday and twice on Sunday.

                And why is that? You don't see me in every Duran thread like the floyd boys are in every one of his.


                Floyds style is perfect for Duran and Durans style is all wrong for Floyd.
                Many people underestimate Durans defense and focus mainly on his offense but Duran had a great defense as well. Floyd would not be able to hurt Duran or take his punches... Floyd doesn't throw enough to keep Duran away and at bay.

                  by on his bike I mean ring movement. Chavez was never that fazed by that.
                  Camacho had unbelievable hand speed, are you kidding me?

                  hell I remember Floyd getting tagged skirting the ropes against ****ing Manfredy...Chavez bombs to the body, and usually could throw short straight rights just to mark up and catch elusive fighters, which I think would work very effectively against Floyd. Chavez I dont expect Floyd to get KOed but he gets outpointed down the stretch.

                  Ive seen plenty of Mayweathers fights. hell, his are some of the easiest to get out of any active fighter. theres not many I havent seen.

                    Not that I was just expecting you to post in THIS particular thread, considering the different array of opinions, I was hoping for a more detailed response in your first post but it is good to see what you believed to be the outcome in this one.
