      Floyd has never beaten a great of the caliber of the 4 horseman. Now, who have any of those guys beat that compare to a Floyd?

        Floyd will just tie Duran up.

        The way to beat Floyd is if the refs do their jobs and not allow the excessive clinching he does against dangerous opponents. And by not breaking up the fighters too quickly. Like they allowed Hatton to just keep going against Tszu even when they were tangled up. Force Mayweather to keep fighting and stop saving him from the inside game.

        It is a flaw of boxing that you don't see in UFC. There they are only separated when they are no longer doing anything entertaining.

          well, duran holds a win over srl, who would be closest to fmj in style, except that srl was more offensive than defensive...

He needs to set up to get the kind of leverage he wants on his punches. I watched his fight with Lopez and his combos were effective. But his feet were planted and Lopez stood there. Nice try Duran.
            Duran beat SRL fair and square during Leonards prime, plz go

              Good Advise From Duran

              I think Duran is right. Canelo should go after Mayweather like Mares went after Moreno. Don't let Mayweather dance out of the way. Forget the head, just go after everything else. It could work.

                  Each other. If you're talking styles, Leonard and Hearns beat Benitez.

                    If you guys think that Mayweather is in the same class as Leonard, Duran or Hearns, then you must be drinking the koolaid that Floyd and his family is spewing out. Mayweather is a very good fighter but not in the class with Duran, Leonard or Hearns.

                      More like finding ways to duck the guys who can do it is another dtory
