Who would have a better chance to beat Floyd?

[Boofdatruth]

Cotto would get ko'd by Floyd. He can't outbox Floyd nor would his pressure worry Floyd. Margs is not Castillo. Castillo was in front of Floyd for the whole first fight. The rematch, he could not deal with Floyd. Margs is slower than Castillo. Margs has the chin, but Floyd would box him like he did Chico. Margs is more dangerous imo because he is a two fisted fighter. To beat Floyd, you have to be able to throw with both hands. Neither can beat Floyd imo but if I had to pick, Margs no question. Fans love to say styles make fights. To a degree I believe this to be true.

have you never even seen his fight against Sugar Ray Leonard ?

Yeah, that first fight was a close fight. Duran won imo. The best Duran that ever fought was against Sugar. Duran was 72-1 when he faced Sugar. He had tons of experience over Sugar, and that is why he won. I don't think floyd beats Duran, but who knows in a rematch lol. Duran is one of the 5 best fighters I ever saw live or on film.

As long as Floyd fights the way he does, he's pretty much unbeatable by the likes of Cotto and Marg. Too slow, too conventional, too hittable. It'll take someone as fast and as unconventional as himself to do him in. Corley, if he had more heart and was a better finsher, could've beaten him. Judah, if he weren't a ****ing nutcase, had the tools to get the job done too, I believe. Unfortunately (for Floyd) his style matched against fighters like the two you mention is about as exciting as watching paint dry. He'll never be remembered as an exciting fighter, just a fabulously talented, greedy one who didn't give a rat's ass about boxing fans.

I agree with you completely. A guy like Floyd could probably be beaten by an athlete. A prime Mosley could have one the job.

Mosley

i doubt it he is to one dimmensional fast hands decent hitter thats pretty much it he is not very good at adapting and had no defence even in his prime

reflexes pretty much was his defence

Depends on which Floyd showed up. Early Floyd, the one that would trade a little and take a few chances, or later Floyd, the one that doesn't care about anything but the 0 and the cash and to whom any risk at all is unacceptable.

Later Floyd would probably take a close decision against Mosely. Early Floyd would probably get caught by Mosely and be KO'd. Mosely is a finisher, if he hurt him, he'd be done.

Cotto is gonna be vulnerable to punchers even more now. PBF ain't a puncher tho and I can still see Cotto doin better against PBF than Tony would.

[sylvestersweet]

Margarito.
Though Cotto is nowhere near as hit and run as PBF, Cotto resorted to that in his fight against Margarito as the fight progressed and paid a price. Margarito would do the same against Floyd because you can't run from the guy and Floyd doesn't hit hard.
Cotto-PBF would be an even match, and if Cotto gets momentum back maybe Floyd can come out of retirement and fight him.

Cotto, more speed and skill would cause Floyd to have to work a bit more.
