Could Floyd Mayweather Jr also had beaten Thurman at the same age that Pacquiao did at 41 years old?

Sure floyd could best everyone in their backyards and still remain undefeated, and best pac, Nell and dl h in rematches......and Nell without a cw, .but didnt.

      Mayweather will surely have a GIFT WIN against thurman as long as he don't get knock out and he do that by running and hugging to survive. Mayweather is GIFTED with coulda woulda.

        You're still a bundle of excuses
        I will never let you Pac Bois forget Pac let a slob like HORN (CPGW) rob him

        BTW, nothing wrong with woulda, coulda, shoulda....without that policy, you couldn't use Margarito as your best weapon against May

          :
          Yes, floyd fans of course believe floyd could best horn in Australia in horns backyard if floyd wanted to, but unfortunately didnt. So can't be credited unfortunately.
          floyd would also be a 8 or 9 division champ if he wanted, cherrypicking bum champs or weak champs, in each division but he found it hard to weigh more than 160 fight night. So again can't be credited

Mayweather also wasnt afraid of his power at all so fought really sloppy there.

            I think given a full camp he can beat thurman with what we have to go on which isnt much.

            He beat Pac when he was 38
            - - Needed injections, a doctored official scorecard, and backdated TUE to win an orchestrated decision over Manny who was never blessed with such official offerings, beat being what you do to yourself everytime you engage this subject.

            l'l floydy and he crack daddy are as shameless as their fans...

              Mayweather could have been one of the greatest if he didn't go to a temporary vacation to duck threat opponent.

                Denial is not the answer.
                May is better than Pac and better than everyone Pac fought.

                Of all people......HORN
                The ultimate cherry pick gone wrong.
                It was bound to happen.

                  It will be a one sided fight goes to Mayweather by all rounds. Maybe 1 round to Thurman which will be the first one.

You often get this with fighters as one generation is moving out and the next generation is moving in, nothing new its always been there in boxing.
                      Floyd was scared of the guy. Stop making excuses.

                      Thurman was calling him out when he was cherrypicking Ortiz and Madonna.
