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

      What opponents did you select to beat him during his career, that was the question ?

        I can't think of one welterweight that beat Floyd, but we need both hands to count guys who started below welterweight who beat Manny.

          "Beat"

          In reality, only 5.

          Sing, Torre, Money, Morales, & Marquez

              Since when does the no.1 P4p of all time not have at least 1 A-level fighter in his prime?

                a class b figher maidana can beat floyd.

                castillo
                maidana
                dela hoya
                pacquiao

                floyd is just above average boxer.

                  Duran that beat SRL would have a nightmare matchup for Floyd too.

                    Duran got hotheaded too easy and got caught while Cuevas' head movement was questionable at best in that fight. Now, let's talk about Hagler/Hearns. THAT is how Floyd would do it - minus the cut.

                      True he was lanky @ 147. But I really see no difference between fighting him and fighting Chico Corrales, except the speed difference.
