Is Floyd talented enough to beat Paul Williams or Kelly Pavlik?

Paul at 147 or 154, that's a close fight probably, but I'd take Paul. A long, active, big southpaw, that is a nightmare for Floyd.

Floyd would have to expend so much energy not getting hit and size would come into play. He would not be able to do it.

Originally posted by bojangles1987 View PostI can see how Mayweather's style would trouble Pavlik, but there are weight divisions for a reason. At 160, where the fight would have to take place, Mayweather is much slower and doesn't have the same reflexes. Even if he came in at 154 or 156 or something he is going to lose something. Also, you're underrating how good Sergio Martinez is and how different he fights compared to Floyd, Floyd is a textbook fighter whereas Sergio is very unconventional.

my opinion is also not based on martinez, iv been saying this for a lng time. i dont rate pavlik at all.

Originally posted by shade darkar View Postwell we can agree to disagree. id think mayweather would still be light years quicker than pavlik regardless of a few extra pounds. just a quick question aswell, say they did fight at 160, does mayweather have to weigh in at 154.1 at minimum or can he weigh anything under 160? always wondered about that!
