    I also strongly object to Margarito. The only way he would have beaten Floyd is with plastered wraps.

    Cotto was solid in his prime but Floyd would have stopped him at 140 and beaten him handily at 147.

    Fight with Pac would be 50/50.

    Everything else is debatable, except for Hearns. He was a monster at 147.
    fair enough. your reasons are legit. but i disagree with your assesment of cotto and margarito

    Though, I don't think that either Margarito, Cotto or Pacquiao would defeat a prime Floyd jr.

    In my opinion Floyd's superior boxing skills would give him the edge.

    I havent seen him fight above listed fighters calibre.

    i actually have him beating floyd, but to be fair floyd beat him the second time around. One of floyds underrated victory imo.

      Cotto nope, Margarito nope lol, Tsyzu nope,Oscar nope. Williams, and Quartey would have been close though..

        Prime Duran
        RJJ at jmw

        Fighters that wouldve dominated floyd to a decision

        Prime vernon forrest
        prime Pryor
        prime paul williams
        prime benitez
        prime JCC sr
        prime sweet pea

        Fighters that wouldve had a close win

        prime Margarito
        prime Cotto
        prime pacquiao
        Prime tzsyu
        prime Quartey
        prime dela hoya

        styles makes fight. add your fighter if you like
        Your list is a bunch of bullsh_it.

        Hearns couldnt perform well under the lights and got KOd in every big fight he was ever in. Marga, P Will, Quartey, Tzsyu, Pac, Benitez, and Cotto all couldnt beat Floyd now.

        DLH, Forrest, SRR, and RJJ would be matchup problems for Floyd. Probably even favored going in to the fight.

        But JCC beating Floyd by decision is the biggest joke of them all. He always was a slow starter. In fact he often gave away the first 4 rounds. And if your spotting Floyd 4 rounds the fights over.

        Pryor would be the fight of the century type fight. But Floyd has the edge stylewise going in but that wouldnt mean sh_it to Pryor. I would pay almost anything to see that fight.

          Agreed. Floyd is not good at all.

                Floyd's a bum.

                I'll throw in a 140 lb Ricky Hatton in the mix as well.

                  Through history too many to list. Floyd is a very good fighter but as his career has spanned superfeather to LMW there are plenty you could name who could and most probably would have beaten him. No bad reflection on him as a fighter, as he is superb, but he couldnt be regarded as the best of all time in any division he has fought in.
