    147:
    Pacquiao: Fast, good punch
    Matthysse: Punching power, good skills, smart fighter
    Peterson: Comes with it, fights a hard pace, good punch

    154:
    Alvarez: Strong, decent speed & explosiveness, good punch, patient, counterpuncher

    How can you favor someone over the P4P#1? I think these are some of the guys that might make it interesting. Mayweather doesn't move around as much, and some of these guys can make him pay in the pocket. Pacquiao has been declining, but so has Mayweather.

        lara and molina would have the best chances.

        sergio martinez at 154 is the fight that i want to see.

            No one. Floyd schooled Marquez and I would consider Floyd a favorite over Pacquiao.

              I agree with most of the posters here. No one beats him at 140 to 154. Anything that these guys throw at him he has an answer for. If they are strong, he beats them using his speed. If they are fast, he beats them using his timing. If they are smart, he is smarter. There is nothing you can throw at this guy that he hasn't seen already. I do think Canelo could make it an interesting fight 3 or 4 rounds until he gets outboxed in the later half.

                with that said there are certain fights I wouldn't mind seeing. Pac and Martinez are given p4p fights. at 140 I would love to see a mathysse fight even though I'm sure Floyd can't make the weight. and at 154 I would like a Lara fight or a canelo fight down the line. as 154 stands rite now Floyd is the clear head and shoulders best fighter in the division. because the other little *****es in the division won't fight each other. oh how I miss the 2008-2009 ww days. too bad Floyd retired. Smh. I'll never really get over that.

                  NOTE I MEAN FIGHTERS WHO ACTUALLY FIGHT AT 140-154...SO THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE MARTINEZ WHO IS THE MW CHAMPION
                  NOBODY.....IMO Lara gives him the toughest fight and might even win on 1 of the cards

                      Sergio Martinez would have the best chance at 154 apart from that there is nobody.

                      Lmao @ the guy who said Peterson, almost as bad as when people said Khan would destroy Floyd.
