          There is almost no way that SRL and Hearns don't beat him but in all fairness to Floyd, Welter wasn't his best weight. At Welter, with a weigh-in the day before the fight, both are much bigger than Floyd

            At 130, maybe only Sanchez, Auguello, and Chavez have a chance.

            At 135, Whitaker, Duran, Chavez, Pacquaio, Shane Mosley(younger) and of course Castillo.

            At 140, Aaron Pryor, Oscar De La Hoya, and Manny Pacquiao have a chance

            At 147, I'm taking Sugar Ray Robinson, Leonard, Hearns, the Oscar De La Hoya(younger), Tito Trinidad, and Emile Griffin

            At 154, a ton of people

              But besides that, I don’t feel anyone was outright beating Floyd on his resume. Close matches but they weren’t beating him to the punch and taking Floyd off his game.
              Zab did well in the beginning but no front runner like him will ever beat Floyd.

                He fell apart because Floyd kept adjusting to his adjustments then he ran out of ideas lol. The first 4-5 rounds was a chess match, particularly fighting for lead hand dominance.

                    Prime for prime both those guys beat him undoubtedly. Bigger and better. Floyd is so disadvantaged in those matchups.

                    To beat Hearns at 147 you had to get inside and press the action. You think Mayweather could do that at welterweight? Please...

                      Armstrong vs Hearns?
