There is not an ATG in 130-147 that would have an easy time with Floyd.

Please. Shane was dead on his feet yet Floyd never once came close to putting him down.

So Floyd didnt hurt him? Because thats what I just posted.

I think out of all of them Hearns has the easiest time. I think Hearns beats him 100/100. What would give Floyd problems with a lot of 147lbers is the fact he had to move up several weight classes to get to WW while fighters like Hearns and SRL went on to win belts several weight divisions higher.

Hearns has never been out-boxed at 147. Not only that but Floyd wouldn't have any answer for that long jab and overhand right. If it happened that fight wouldn't last 8-9 rounds (tops).

Hearns wins 10 times outta 10

Also Ray Robinson would stop Floyd at 147 too. I just watched a few highlights of an 18-19 year old Robinson and that guy was crazy good even as an amateur. IMO the is no way in hell Floyd is touching Ray at 147.

I'm sorry I just see Hearns Stopping Floyd.Oh and I don't believe Floyd can hurt Hearns.

Yea i see that too.....Hearns the type of guy Floyd would be scared to death of in a fight and will not hurt him......He doesnt like to throw combos and will not do to him what he did to mosley......

If Wilfred Benitez can go the distance with Hearns so can Floyd.

[BigStereotype]

Hearns is the only one I see handling Floyd. His jab is wicked hard to time and he hits like a freight train. Floyd would have to open up to hit him at all and that's when Tommy would punish him with the right hand. Floyd has a good shot against most other 130-147'ers out there, though.

Benitez was willing to take the risk do you see Floyd taking that risk?

I posted this another thread.....


As you know Ima Detroit guy and Tommy is Favorite of all time. I cant see him beating a guy as smart as Mayweather.

Tommys best weapon is a right hand. A punch Floyd is RARELY hit with due to his shoulder roll defense. Floyds foot speed and reflexes allow him to get inside Tommys Reach and makes Tommy fight a fight he doesnt want to fight. INSIDE GAME.

Floyd is light years ahead of the Hitman on the inside. I see Floyd deflecting shots and hitting Tommy with crisp , clean punches. Tommys chin was also his downfall and Floyd has the kind of speed and accuracy to land some good wins on Tommys chin. Punches that he wont see coming. Floyds counter punching would be down right deadly vs. Hearns.

Tommys jab will pose problems until Floyd starts to time it with laser .....and I do mean LASER right hands over the top. Tommy is too easy to hit and Floyd is the complete opposite.

People who are picking Tommy because hes tall and hit hard need to go watch more boxing. Go watch some more Hearns tapes as well. He hates MOVEMENT.

People need to stop acting like Floyd is some bum. He would give Hearns hell.

Honestly I don't even know where to begin with this rubbish. There is no way....and I repeat no way Floyd will be able to roll that overhand right that Hearns throws. I get it, your gassed off of last Sat...but you really need to chill with alot of this garbage and overrating Floyd.

Thank you man....

I disagree on all 3 points.


Name a boxer with the skills like Floyd has that Leonard beat easily.

His Daddy's who style is he using?Leonard had a easy fight with his dad.No?Leonard was a beast who would be landing and moving so much Floyd would not know what to do with him self.That's when he will have to become aggressive and get pick apart by a prime Sugar.


He tears Pryor a new one. Hes just too aggressive for his won good. Floyd would turn his lights out.Pryor is aggressive.But he is also skilled I did not say Floyd would lose this fight I only put it there because it would be a great fight.Reminds me of May Pac.

Hearns does not stop Floyd in now way shape, form or fashion. Hearns would be favored but Floyd can win a decision against him. And Hearns is my ALL TIME FAVE...he has bad stamina and bad beard.

I'm sorry I just see Hearns Stopping Floyd.Oh and I don't believe Floyd can hurt Hearns.

A fighter who is tall for the weight class, with great reach, with a face damaging jab and one punch KO power has the ideal attributes for making a great fighter. If it came down to a battle of Floyds right hand and Hearns jab Hearns not only has a significant reach advantage, but I think is jab is more damaging than Floyds straight right. I think Floyd is a great, great fighter I predicted him to dominate Mosley in the fashion he did and I pick him to handily beat Pacquiao as well, but hes never faced a fighter with Hearns skill level let alone that Hearns is 6'1" with ATG power.
