    Oscar probably beats him. Manny doesn’t.

    EDIT- I read it as manny not Mosley.

    Oscar probably beats him, Mosley doesn’t.

      You just can NOT compare the fight with old, worn out Mosley, after family break up and nasty ex-wife, the guy who had to hand over his belts to her, etc. with Mosley at his PEAK. THAT Mosley was 3-4 grades above the Mosley who fought Mayweather, who being 90% defensive, held his standard much better than Mosley, who was always ready to go to war and DID, a few too many times, before he fought Mayweather. The poor guy was almost 39 years old and had many furious 10-11-12 rd fights before this. Mayweather was a well preserved 6-7 years younger.

      Look at this list. Vernon Forrest X2, he took heavy beatings L. ...12 rds against Oscar.
      Winky Wright X2 Both L. Fernando Vargas X2. Both W. 1 for 11 rds #2 for 6 rds. Heavy leather thrown. Collazo W.12 rds. Cotto, L-12 rds. heavy leather... Mayorga W, 11 rds Judges split at time of stoppage, heavy leather. Then demoralised Margarito W,12 rds. THEN, aged nearly 39.... Mayweather.

      Not realistic.

        Floyd tougher than people give credit for.... If Oscar was fcking Floyd up you don't think he ain't gonna "grow a tail and wings and start spitting out fire"

        But I think most can agree it would be a 50/50 type fight
        Mayweather was NOT at the "end of his prime" he was just 30 years old right IN his Prime.. Oscar was past the end of HIS prime being 34-5 years old, with years of self abuse, rehabs and etc. we all know about . He had 4 losses.

        This fight against Mayweather was only his second fight in 4 years, after a 2 year retirement when Hopkins beat him. His single fight before Mayweather was a 6 rd win against really washed up Mayorga. Oscar. was WELL past date. And Mayweather liked to win EVERY round, not just do enough to be pushed against better opposition.

        Just the facts sir , just the facts...!!

            DLH would be the tougher of the 2.

              Robinson and Leanord would get the job done both have longer reaches and throw in combination

                And Manny has been KOED and lost 7 times, Manny has been cracked cooked and fried so I got no idea how you can place Manny on a pedestal and so much emphasis on Floyd being buzzed twice in his career of 20 yrs fighting and beating the best of his era in multi weight classes , dam weird and what was you on going about bias ?

                  I don't see Pac surviving any prime WW. Even prime Collazo would test him.

                    relax man, we're now on a different thread. stay relevant to the topic. i know you get butthurt but man floyd lost 2 fights. that's real talk. if that 2 lost reflects on his record come back to me if you still see him the same way dude.
