Floyd beats him with his hand speed, master defense and reflexes all of which he does better than Duran.
Floyd has shown that he does well against presure fighters in his career and he would just counter Duran all night and Floyd has a great chin, he would fight smart he wouldn't do what Leonard did and try to brawl with him, he would fight to his strengths and win a UD.Comment

Styles make fights, and Durans style is perfect for Floyd.
How the fight would play out:
Frustrating, for Duran. The first few rounds Floyd would be cautious, see what Duran is going to do, I can see him landing the counter check left hook like did to Hatton but Duran has a good a chin he wont go down but he gets caught with it early and often. In the first few rounds Duran is fresh he'll land some shots to the body and some to the head, Floyd unfazed would block most of these, I can see him by the ropes blocking most of the shots and countering with blistering fast hooks like he did to Hoya.
Middle rounds Floyd takes over, while Durans gas tank is great and a non issue, he's getting frustrated and can't land clean, so he starts making mistakes, Floyd being the masterful boxer he is, he capitalizes and now hes the aggressor, bringing the fight to Duran.
Last 2 rounds, Duran is desperate and will come out firing cause he's behind, Floyd knows this, so he doesn't attack instead fights defensively and frustrates Duran like he has so many of his opponents.
