    Who would beat Mayweather ?

    Which fighter would beat Mayweather ? If Lara beats Canelo I think he'd be the best bet 2 beat Mayweather. But knowing him he probably will never fight a Cuban

    In triangle theory Khan beats Maidana who arguably beat Mayweather therefore Khan can definitely beat Mayweather, without question.

        Mayweather still has nightmares of the Cuban (Aragon) in the Olympics. He got away with a gift decision in that fight.

          If Lara beats Canelo; and Floyd fights Lara with no CW I will give Floyd props.

            Maidana could beat him in a rematch (he arguably beat him already).

            Porter has the right style to trouble Floyd.

            Andrade and the Charlo twins would have a better chance than most.

            Martinez and Lara would beat him.

              147: Thurman, Pacquiao would beat him while Khan, Bradley, Porter, Maidana and Matthysse have a decent shot.

              154: Golovkin, Martinez, Kirkland would beat him while Lara, Cotto, Andrade have a decent shot.

                No one, he may be unproven but Thurman genuinely worries me in that he knows how to use his feet to get leverage on his punches, especially body punches. Still, Thurman needs to show me how well he can fight in the pocket since Mayweather will smother and tie him up. Porter could cause some problems but I don't know how well he can pick his spots since he hasn't been in there with a good counter puncher, someone who can fight on the inside and punch. I see fighters that can cost him some problems, unless he loses another step I don't see him losing anytime soon.

                  People are obsessed with southpaws defeating Mayweather, I just don't get it. Right handed fighters land easier on him than south paws, plus he has dominated every southpaw he's fought. No guy who got knocked down and beat up by Angulo is the guy to defeat mayweather. And I appreciate Lara's skills but this crowning a guy before he beats anyone of note needs to stop. Mayweather has faced all styles but none of these guys have faced Mayweather's style. It's the same story, rinse and repeat.

                    Khan would give him the most trouble
