    Who Gives Floyd The Most Trouble Now, Thurmann, Khan or Brook?

    Not who beats him, but who could potentially cause him some problems?

    These are the most likely opponents and fights that can be made realistically

    Khan for a few rounds. It would be a massive step up for Thurmann and especially Brook.

        Surprisingly, I think I'll say Khan. For the first time, I think Khan might do it. Thurman's too inexperienced and has too many lapses, and Brook's too much the kind of guy Mayweather likes to fight.

          Brook. His reach and abilities could pose problems.

            Don't think any of them would win but I'd say 1) Khan 2) Thurman 3) Brook
            Khan has a good jab, legit hand speed, foot speed and a long reach but can't fight on the inside and can be hurt.
            Thurman is agile, decent jab, good power but is wild, open to counters and looks like he can be frustrated
            Brook is a bit of a wildcard. He has a solid jab, good power and is big at the weight. But he seems flat footed and would struggle with the speed and movement.

              Thurman!

              He's the guy who will be able to keep up with Floyd's movement, corner him, throw and land at a high frequency every round.

              He has the best connect percentage of those three, and hits the hardest.

                I voted for Thurman, but wouldn't be mad if Khan gets his chance. I don't think Mayweather would fight Brook.

                  brook is tailor made, floyd would white wash him easy. no way in hell a counter puncher is going to beat floyd

                  thurman is too open defensively and doesnt have the volume or skill to trouble floyd

                  amir is the only one who can win a few rounds before getting knocked out
