    Eh, I'm not sure about that. It would have been an entirely different ball game. Mayweather would have had to face Williams and Margarito and a younger Pacquiao.

      He's retired at the moment so I didn't mention him but yeah obviously... Unless Paul Williams or Margarito could have beat him but I doubt it...

        I'm not all that certain Arturo Gatti would have ever got a title either. It's possible but he usually lost when he stepped up, despite being great to watch.

          I think Hopkins wouldn't have reigned quite as long, but it would probably be close.
          Now I have one that was arguably the most difficult to separate ....you can't argue with both guys records and time as champions..one WBC the other WBA ....Salvador Sanchez WBC and Eusebio pedroza WBA ....pedroza ruled for over 7 years Sanchez was champion and died at a young age still champion ..who reckons would be the champ of those 2 ?

            A younger Oscar would have beat maywether , also I think a mosley...prime vs prime would have caused a lot more problems

              One name which comes to mind, unfortunately, is Ricardo Lopez. If you go back to the original 8 classes, you eliminate strawweight which is where he spent his prime and he was small at the weight and didn't move up until the final part of his career. If he had to go all the way up to 112 and fight the likes of Too Sharp Johnson and Yuri Arbachakov, because of how good they were and BIG compared to him (and he probably could have made 100lbs. in his prime), I don't think that, as masterful as he was, Finito Lopez wins a title.

                  No one beats him because of the unfair terms and the very likely chance that Floyd has been doping a good portion of his career but paying off drug testing agencies.

                      Devon Alexander springs to mind.
