Best measure of how Floyd Jr would do against Sugar Ray is to gauge how well his dad Floyd Snr did against Sugar Ray.
That didnt go to well for Mayweather.Comment

Alot of people mentioned, how SRL had more power, better skills, better footwork, bigger in size.
But no one mentions there defensive attributes. Mayweather is simply leagues above SRL in that department. I believe they are similar in all other attributes except defence
Could you honestly see mayweather losing to Roberto Duran? that would be an easy UD for Money
Slip shots, perfectly timed shoulder role? place elbow over liver(avoid effective body shots), he's stance is very strange too as he doesn't stand like an orthodox fighter when in defensive mode. Defence isn't simply using your great footwork to get away from shots?(prime Roy jones), elite defence is standing on the ropes and taking all of your challangers best shots, and 1 of 20 hits your thats somthing else....James Toney had somthing similar, i'm not talking about rope-a-dope either
There are alot of fighters that could match floyds other skills in the last few decades but there are few who could match he's defensive work rate....unfortunately alot of people in these forums don't recognise defence as work rate
Sure...Comment
