No announcement yet.
At 147-154, Prime for Prime, how would Floyd Mayweather Jr fair against these five Pro Boxers he beat in the past?

Mayweather and Canelo weren't prime at 154 so that's more of a P4P prime fantasy fight.
I'd pick De La Hoya and Mosley over Mayweather prime for prime at 147.
Pac and Cotto still lose but they'd both be more tense and exciting fights. Especially prime Mayweather-Cotto at 147.

Everyone was after the floyd payday, so I can't imagine anyone ducking floyd, floyd could fight anyone if he wanted, be it spence, thurman, bradley, brook, bud etc

Yeh, I'm sure he didn't take rematches as he wasn't confident he could outpoint them, floyd knew it was luck of draw as to what pleased judges eyes, he was just fortunate judges liked him more against dlh and pac and Castillo and maidana.

Not really Floyd was backing out of fights to duck. That was obvious

You can be in denial, but the knock on Floyd's shortcomings are shared worldwide
He welched on the rematch with de la hoya when he "retired" long enough for the contract to expire. That is a clear duck.Last edited by djtmal; 12-15-2024, 10:33 PM.
