How the heck do you guys know we can speculate but a younger Floyd had better stamina and still could out point either guy including Cotto who gases out aalot in many of his fights including against Mosley whom I think won the fight just like Clottey. Everyone thinks Margarito could've beaten him because of his size and stalking nature. Maybe but the difference between he and Cotto is that Floyd has great defense and looping shots wouldnt land and he would counter Margarito all day and move and win. May have been a tough fight but Margarito would look like he did in the first half of the Clottey and Cotto fight.
Would Floyd have gone undefeated if he fought the fighters Cotto has?

I would say Mosley is the toughest guy on that resume and Floyd just beat a top #1 WW version of him. To be fair, Cotto would beat everyone Mayweather fought at 140-147. But you have to think about Floyd's run at 130 as well. Floyd is now a full WW but that doesn't erase the fact that the bulk of his wins are at 130 and 20KOs of the 25 in his career came at 130. Just keep in mind you're comparing a 5 weight class champ to a 2 weight class champ.Comment

floyd would beat them all. Sometimes I don't understand how you people come up with this stuff. Zab Judah and corley almost knocked cotto out. Look what floyd did to them. Look what floyd did to mosley.Comment

Undefeated Quintana
Dangerous Zab Judah
a couple years younger Shane Mosley
Extremely Motivated and Plaster Fisted Margarito
a Determined if not Gun Shy Josh Clottey
and a Rampaging Manny Pac at a catchweight
and then a few scrubs sprinkled in between...
i dont know man, thats a tough lineup of fighters to go through and not to mention undefeated late replacement Torres and undefeated Paulie in there.
I would Favor Floyd in every fight BUT i just think everybody loses at some point and somebody would have caught up to him.
I'd basically say floyds record would be 35-1 with about 22-24 KO's against Cotto's opponents.
The loss would be either against Pac,Mosley or a Cheating Margarito but wouldnt be stunned if Paulie or Quintana made it interesting (but not win)Comment
