    I think Spence would have beaten the 2015 version of Floyd Mayweather

    Too big, and too powerful.

      Spence busted up TBE’s eye in sparring — not the other way around. I’ll just leave it at that.

      Not sure what would have happened had he faced Pretty Boy though.

      But against TBE / Money? I’m betting on Spence.

        Floyd didn’t fight top-level young guns when he was in the second half of his career. I don’t fault him for it though, cause he earned the ability to choose whomever he wanted to fight because of how dominant he was in his prime, and through his impeccable business acumen.
        But most of the names on his resume when he was older were either washed big names or lower-level younger guys. Maidana was a solid B level fighter and he beat him twice. But Maidana was not Spence. I do wish Floyd had fought more active and slick urban boxers when he was older instead of just a bunch of plodding Mexicans. I think we could more accurately judge just how good he was all-time if his comp had been a little better.

          Well, hed have a better chance than berto, guerrero, ortiz, Connor and maidana and maidana didn't do too bad.
          But Floyd didn't fight toughest available, or people who had best chance to beat him. Floyd's choice of opponents always left you scratching head in wonder
