Who in the top ten at 154 beat Mayweather?

[araindon]

Williams beats everyone at 147-160 I reckon. Floyd UD's pretty much everyone else on that list though!

[2501]

No one said Marquez and Floyd were the same size. Mayweather is clearly bigger but it isn't to a point, where the size is gonna be a factor, it's 4-5 lbs we're talking here.

Incorrect. Size differentials have far more to them than just lbs, Dom. For example, who's body has been conditioned to preform at higher weights? Who's muscles have been programmed at a higher weight and for how long? etc etc. Its not the MASS that makes the difference, but how the body reacts to conditioning.

That I understand, muscle weighs more then fat. Because Marquez has been close to 144 during a fight, doesn't mean he'll perform as good but Mayweather isn't looking THAT good either. From the looks of it, Mayweather has slowed down also.

We'll just have to see. I think Floyd is gonna come in lookin bigger than in his previous fights. To me, that tells me that they may try to ruff Marquez up a bit which is actually a good strategy because you want to either keep and accurate puncher at bar, or disrupt his rhythm by roughing him up if smaller.

floyd decisions kirkland in a very close fight. kirkland possibly outworks floyd, but most likely floyd wins by razor close decision.

Williams, Martinez, Sergei....they would beat Floyd, Spinks did call him out after his last fight though.

[-Antonio-]

I just wonder how Kirkland/Mayweather looks in the ring. How Floyd counters Kirkland's agression. Spinks would have been interesting a few years ago, but as it stands his reflexes are shot.

Williams is the guy. Martinez gives him fits as well though I'm not high on him really.

damn 154 is weak.

That's what I was thinking. It's a shame for Paul Williams really because that seems like his perfect weight.

No need for Mr boat buyer goin to JMW. He got unfinished business wit SSM and Cotto at WW.

Wouldn't that be like Castillo 1 but a much bigger stronger guy chasing Floyd around the ring?
