Realistically only welterweights that can beat Floyd are Leonard/Hearns/Robinson.

    That's all I'm saying - people keep making this wild-eyed statement that Floyd can't handle tall fighters. All I'm saying is, he's dominated all three of the taller men he's fought, inside or not.

        I think Duran would've ****ed Floyd up TBH. Maybe a prime Floyd could've squeaked out a decision but Duran could box and had real power, that would've been a great fight.

        Whitaker vs Floyd would've been an interesting fight as well, this is a weaker choice but I could see it going either way.

        Like everyone else said, Tommy Hearns would've made Floyd his ***** easily.

          Why the hell are a lot of clowns here comparing Thomas Hearns to Corrales? Are they ******ed or something? And who the hell said Prime Floyd KO's Prime hearns? Do you even know boxing?

            LOL @ these trolls saying Hearns & all old fighters etc would smash Mayweather.

            He couldn't smash Benitez. He wouldn't be able to hit Floyd much for a start. Nobody is history would "smash" Floyd or beat him easily. He's just too complex of a puzzle to solve for that to happen. Maybe if he came along in that era he would've lost a couple times, so what, all those guys lost fights as well. But if you think they run through him it's obvious you're just hating and don't know boxing.

            Some of you trolls would cut your balls off to see this man lose, it's sad & hilarious at the same time Quit hating and learn the sport. Floyd's one of the GOATS.

              Add Tony pep to that list as well. He actually fought tall and look what Floyd did to him. "I can't hit the ****in guy"

                  Floyd is not even belong to top 20 WW fighter of all time. Most of the top WW fighters in history would clown his ass. Tell me at least 1 legit Great WW fighter in his prime that he defeated? Answer: None

                  Floyd is one of the most overrated fighter of all time.

                  For OP, You need to watch more boxers. You will realize how overrated Floyd is.

                      Mayweather loses to the 4Kings-80's era Duran, SRL, Benitez and Hearns.

                      Mayweather is 50/50 against the 90's era Trinidad, DLH, Whitaker and Mosley.

                      Mayweather beats everyone from the 1900's - 1970's.
