    No chance at 130. Floyd was a Speed Demon at that weight class.

      Would have given Morales the best chance, but honestly no.

              According to Morales, he gave Floyd the business in sparring in '00, when Floyd was still at 130:

              "In 2000, I was training for a fight in Texas and sparred three or four rounds with Mayweather. Mayweather’s father Floyd Sr. was my trainer and got me to spar with his son. I had him groggy and reeling but he never went down".


              But that's as close to an actual fight as we'll ever get (crosses fingers), and it's still only sparring.

                I think they all have a good shot, considering Floyd's style and the variety of skills they all possessed at that weight.

                  Nobody wanted to fight Floyd at 130...anybody who believes any of those three would have a chance in hell of beating Floyd at 130 clearly wasn't watching boxing back then...

                      Very interesting. Where did you get that from?
