    Could floyd mayweather jr beat these guys at 154?

    Terry norris
    Mike McCallum
    Julius jackson
    Vernon forrest

    Thoughts?
    He beat an old part time oscar, a non prime cotto but still very good.
    He is fighting a younger 154 pounder below his confortable weight .152.
    But at 154 would he beat thse guys listed in your opinion

    Terry norris - Yes (easy). Norris had a tendency to have mental lapses.
    Mike McCallum - Yes (it would be tougher though)
    Julius jackson - Julian had a puncher's chance but Yes
    Vernon forrest - The version that fought Sergio Mora in the first fight, Yes easy.

    I haven't heard anyone mention Winky Wright at 154. Wright's jab alone would make it interesting. Also Wright's work rate and accuracy would pose problems for Mayweather. You can never bet against Mayweather but this would be an interesting fantasy fight.

        No.

        He could perhaps beat Jackson.

        Probably a close fight with Forrest but I'd still lean on Forrest in a close, SD, MD kind of fight.

        These guys are giants compared to Mayweather. He's not built for 154, he's tiny at 154.

            Hes not going to beat Jackson.All Jackson has to do is touch floyd one time. Just once.Hes one the p4p hardest hitters.

                Floyd can't beat any of them apart from possibly Norris who loved to leap him and get carried away, Floyd would probably counter the hell out of him if Norris fought like that, The others either hit too hard, were too big or too strong or had a combination of factors which also made them good boxers. Floyd skill wise is better than them all but he is too small for legitimate 154 pound fighters, these guy would have been too much.

                But in all honesty, Floyd would never have fought them anyway.

                  Winky would keep Floyd at the end of his jab all night. Too easy, and he'd severely muscle him on the inside.

                    Winky was a tremendous fighter with an old school style
                    Long arms and great chin
