    Beetween 130 and 154 how many fighters do you think actually beat Floyd or get a draw

    130 Maybe Loma but thats a hig maybe

    135 Duran possible Sweat Pea but that fight is just to hard to call

    140 No one Pryor, Chavez, Ross, Tyszu all great fighters but they not beating Floyd. Benitez poses a threat but Floyd has the better offence here.

    147 Obvisouly Leonard, Robinson, Hearns. Armstrong Burley and Napoles make strong cases but i just dont see it happening.

    154 again Hearns and only Hearns Jackson has a punchers chance but i highly dought it.

    Hector Camacho at 130 was a blur of lightning combinations; accuracy, and power. At that weight I would give him a hell of a shot. Above 130 was the drugs and partying and the slipping.

      Hearns would drop Mayweather for the count. Mayweather does not fight on the inside in the center of the ring and Hearns would stop him from coming in with his ramrod jab from the the outside, Hearns was incredibly fast and those punches that Mosley, Judah, and Corley hurt Floyd with were love taps compared to Hearns power. Hearns style is all wrong for Floyd. None of what Floyd does would keep Hearns from painting his with rapid jabs and crushing right hand shots. Early KO for Hearns.

      Leonard was bigger, faster, and stronger and fought monsters in his day, Floyd never faced what Leonard faced. Late TKO or decision for Leonard. Floyd never fought 15 rounds either.

      The Duran of 1980 Montreal would have swarmed Floyd and pounded on him on the ropes for 15 rounds, if Floyd made it that far, a fight that long is something that Floyd has never seen. Maidana was a sugar puff compared to Duran from Montreal.

        I don't consider any fighter below the 70's good enough to beat Floyd regardless of what weight class, saw their tapes and they are as robotic as they get.

          Even Floyd knows he would not survive against Robinson.

          But to be fair, 147 was not Floyd's best weight.
