    If Floyd Mayweater fought in my time he would be just another fighter

    Duran said something to that effect..But does that mean Floyd would be the same fighter he is today..I mean would he do everything then he does now..Or would he be better then now cause of the better competition developing his boxing skills to finer degrees..Or is he at a limit now that can't be improved regardless of who his opponents were..
    Looking back would we see him as the greatest thing since SRR or would we see him like his dad ..Good fighter but against the elites always on the losing end..Educate me folks what would be different in his game..or would he have less game and why

                  If Floyd fought in the 80's

                  Floyd would


                  Floyd would have Gerry Curls

                  Retire while Duran, Hearns, and SRL fight eachother.

                  Floyd will have his cousin yelling The freshest ever instead of TBE

                  Duran with have Hearns Problem

                  Hearns will have SRL Problems

                  SRL has Duran problems

                  Hagler too big and Just trying to get Paid

                  Kool Mo dee would swoop up MS. Jackson instead of nelly.......



                  There, summarized floyds career 80's style.

                    Floyd mayweather is not Ray Leonard not hearns not hagler. He's sweet pea 2.0 exact same fighter just cherry picks better.
