      FWIW, if Julio Cesar Chavez v2.0 can give Floyd hell, I'd bet that the actual Julio Cesar Chavez can beat him at 135.

          Anybody who bets against Mayweather Jr is a fool, if he got in the ring with Tommy Hearns i wouldn't bet against Floyd, i wouldn't bet on him but i wouldn't bet against him either

          Floyd is a Boxing God

            I never involved the dudes who fought when TV was black and white.....I always go by what I've witnessed in my lifetime....and O has a point...Money is a real safe bet in the classes he's competed in......with that said, I'd bet the castle on Hearns....and the whip on a prime Vernon Forrest at 147....but other than that...My Money's on Mayweather

            hold on..Sugar Shane is STILL my dude don't get it twisted!!!

              I'd put my money on a Whitaker JCC replay without the robbery.

                Why would you bet against Floyd?

                I can understand thinking Hearns can beat Floyd, but betting against him

                I can't Bet Against Money, no matter who he's facing

                  I'd say he's the safest bet against anyone in history at 130. Including my favourite fighter; Alexis Arguello.

                  But he wouldn't be the safest bet at 147 or 154 against anyone.

                  Tommy Hearns would be the betting favourite against Mayweather at 147 and 154. Andd rightfully so. The safe bet in that fight is Hearns.

                  The same applies for Leonard at 147. He'd be the safe bet. Mainly down to the fact he's beaten better fighters and would be far ahead the best fighter, with the most tools that Mayweather has ever faced.

                  This applies for plenty of fighters at 147.

                  What about Mike McCallum? Would anyone bet against a prime McCallum Vs. Mayweather at 154? I wouldn't.

                    No, you have to bet on one or the other or die LOL. The gun is at your temple. Will it be Hearns or Floyd?

                      I just have a hard time betting on one fighter over a period of weight classes, because the variables change. I'd bet against Floyd over a couple guys at 135, 147, and 154.

                      I think when dealing with fighters head to head, it's only really fair to focus on one or two weight classes, ie - Delahoya at 135 and 140, Floyd at 130 and 135. Because as fighters move up, too many things change and become factors.
