I think Mayweather would beat all of those 4. I voted Cotto, though, cos I think he would give him the hardest time.
Pac is at a disadvantage in every conceivable category to Floyd (including stylistically).
I think Margarito is just a one-dimensional blunt instrument that would get befuddled by Floyd's speed and he'd have Margarito so confused his brain would explode.
Pwill also has too much of a disadvantage in speed, but not only that, he doesn't have a good jab to make any use of his height advantage. He throws a lot of wide, circular shots that are just begging to be countered.
Cotto has a grueling and grind it out pressure offense, but unlike Margarito's, it is intelligent pressure. He can choose his spots unlike Marg, and his punches are short and crisp unlike Pwill's. He's better technically than the other two also, defensively, footwork, otherwise. I still see him losing to Floyd though.Comment

I also thought Williams was the toughest matchup for Mayweather.
6'1 (at least), 82" wingspan, terrific workrate, solid hand speed, southpaw stance. He'd probably outweigh Mayweather by about 12-15 pounds on the night of the fight.
Mayweather's been more aggressive (and hittable) against lefties. Corley and Judah both stunned or dropped Mayweather.
Williams's defense is leaky, and Mayweather is a very resourceful and intelligent fighter, so I wouldn't discount Mayweather's chances. But Williams's defensive liablities are more distinct against southpaws (Quintana 1, even shot midget Mitchell hit Paul with good shots), which Mayweather isn't.
The fight is about as likely to happen as a David Haye decision win over Wladimir Klitschko, so I guess discussing this is fruitless anyway.Comment
