    Floyd loses VERY CLOSE fights to Robinson and Leonard.

    Beats everyone else.

    (I heard Burley was a bad mutha****a but no footage of him exists to back it up)

      I remembering that long article about a month ago, and I pretty much agreed in general what they had to say. But then again, I didn't really know many of them were.

      I think there's absolutely no question that he would've been beaten by Ray Leonard and Hearns, those two were monsters.

      The only ones who they also mentioned: Robinson and Burley...I haven't seen much footage of them, so I can't really say. Well...not Burley anyway. They mention in the magazine that there's only one piece of footage of him fighting, so...good luck finding it.

      Interesting to note that Hearns is the only one who knocks him out out of all these dream match-ups.

        Sounds about right to me,except both Sugars ko floyd,I must admit I don't know that much about Charles,but I do believe Armstrong would lose a close D & Gavilan didn't have the skill!!

            Kid Gavilan gave a prime Ray Robinson hell though... arguably won the first fight....

                    Traingle thoeries dont work.

                    I picked Floyd to lose very close fights to Robinson and Leonard.

                    Gavilan gets his ass beat something fierce.
