    i still believe mosley has a lil' left in his tank. he might not be able to outspeed PBF but he has enough power to earn PBF's respect. he also have an above average whisker so he might lure PBF to go toe to toe with him.. so my vote goes to him..

    cotto on the other hand is a nice combination of boxer/puncher. he would look as slow as ever when he fights PBF but he have the power and body punch that may give PBF some problem.

      Its pretty hard to say. Floyd shows problems with speedy guys. Power oriented guys aren't much of a problem for him but people who beat him to the punch gives PBF the most problems.

      Paul Williams only asset is a long reach. Not enough to beat Floyd. As a matter of fact I will go on to say... He cant beat Floyd period.

      Mosley is speedy and has power but he relies way too much on that right straight. So I dont know if Mosley would be the biggest threat. A definite threat due to him having the possible speed to beat Floyd to the punch.

      Cotto is a power oriented guy that doesn't have the advantage of size. So with that said Cotto isn't really a threat at all. In terms of ranking and stats(Resume), Cotto is a threat. In terms of skill and ability, lets face it... dumb powerful guys aren't a threat to Floyd. A speedy, agile, intelligent tactition. Cotto's game plan will be to target the philly shell's (shoulder roll) weakness. Which is to hit the forward shoulder with big power shots. Floyd isn't ****** and knows this. So he wont let Cotto, the slower guy, go for that gameplan. Cotto would end up on the losing end of a Unanimous Decision.

      Pacquiao is a powerful, speedy, and agile guy. He goes in quickly, throws a fast and furious combo, then backs out just as quick as he went in. I dont know who is the faster man out of these two but if you watch the Zab-Floyd fight, then you will see speedy guys give Floyd problems. Pacquiao's skill set is very similar to Zab's and he also has better footwork than Zab. Now you give Zab a brain and he would have beat Floyd. Pacquiao is a pinoy-Zab Judah with a brain. Identical skill set but way more intelligent.

      So with my explainations said... Manny Pacquiao is the biggest threat to Floyd Mayweather Jr.

            He would KO Cotto and cotto wouldnt lay a hand on him.

            he would run circles on Williams

            Pacman would get layed out from counters.


            Mosley right now can give him a tough time like Zab did and he wouldnt mentaly collapse like ZAb did. But Mosley in early 2010 i think would be done skill wise

                Seriously? You really think Floyd would risk taking damage to look for the KO? Floyd doesn't really do that unless he is for sure he can get the KO.

                    Just as fast as Floyd? Ummmmmmm - not a ****ing chance Shane will EVER be, if he ever WAS, as fast as Floyd. Floyd uses HIS speed and countering to pick apart Shane. Sugars only hope is to get into a brawl with Jr. because as you said, he does hit harder but Floyd isn't that ******. Take the Judah fight for example. Shane get's outclassed in this one IMO.
