    Surprised to hear someone say that after seeing how pot-shotters like Quintana and Martinez exposed Paul's vulnerability to accurate counter punching. I was saying it back then when Williams was at his peak and I'll say it now. Floyd Mayweather would have won a commanding points victory over Paul Williams, IMHO.

      Wonderful jab, picks his shots well.

      Just an all round brilliant fighter.
      again ppl keep talking about martinez

      martinez fights with his Hands down the whole time

      u r telling me he is going to get away with it with a great counter puncher in floyd

      cmon seriously

      it would be a good fight, but martinez cant hang with floyd

        Here we go a mayweather thread about who can beat mayweather but he some how is always winning in these matchups but the fights never happens. We could have seen him against a prime williams or margarito, and a prime pacquiao. All throw punches in bunches and apply pressure (even tho the pacman is the best out of the 3 because he is lightning fast) but naw we never will get to see mayweather against those opponents that could apply constant pressure. But i think cotto will apply smart pressure 2nite and grind out a "w".

          Pacquiao. Fear is your biggest enemy and will cause your downfall. Floyd feared Pacquaio above everyone else..

            For someone to convincingly beat Floyd, you'd need to step up at least two weight classes. His skills are that far above his peers.

              No. Floyd dodged Kostya Tszyu for a reason. Tszyu had the skills to beat Floyd. np
              Which surprises me cause Floyd can handle Mannie. I don't understand why he won't fight him.
