    Don't forget. Jose Luis Castillo DID use his superior size and strength to great effect in the first fight.

      De La Hoya would get smashed around by Floyd right now. I agree prime Oscar would give him a good fight but a la Shane Mosley, the speed and the quickness would trouble Oscar and I would give an edge to Floyd. Plus I never see that fight happening because of Oscar saying he wouldnt fight Floyd out of respect to Floyd Sr and all of that non sense. I think Floyd can cruise through 140 lbs and would have a good shot at 147. 154 would be tough though.

        As much as i don't like floyd i have to agree with your post. I have now realized that i don't think floyd will lose...to anyone. He's way to fast and is a masterful boxer. I still don't like the man, if he shows more respect to fighter like he did to gatti after his fight i can grow to like him.

          DLH doesn't really impose his size on people. He likes to use his skillz.

            Mayweather is awesome and should stay at 140. He should never face Shane Mosley though. I would give him zero to no shot at beating him.

              Mose needs to look better at 147 to take him seriously though.

              Mose-Judah would be a good fight.

                Right. But for the sake of Mayweather, he should stay clear from him as a possible opponent.

                1.) Shane's chin is made of granite.
                2.) He is equally as fast
                3.) Hits way harder IMO
                4.) Might stop Floyd on body shots alone.

                  mosley is 33 now man, and mayweather is at his peak right now, I still believe that floyd's chin is suspect though, his dad and all his uncles have been knocked out multiple times each, even though floyd is better then they ever were, weak chins are in the genes, and if anybody has the speed and power combo to test it, Mosley could be the one
