Which fighter would have the best chance of beating Floyd right now? - Page 3

Angulo has a 100X better chance than Guerrero.

They will both use the same style, but who's better at it?

Angulo. He's bigger, stronger, harder hitting, puts combinations together better, and can take a serious punch.

While he may not be deserving of this fight, he is a nightmare for Floyd at this stage in Floyd's career.

There is no way Floyd will be able to survive against Angulo with his back against the ropes, especially after Angulo learned a hard lesson in how not to punch himself out, and teamed up with Ward's trainer, Virgil Hunter.

1.Bradley and Manny are the only people I see having a legitimate chance.

This is the equivalent of asking Donaire to fight Broner. There is just too much of a gap in natural size for the fight to be made.

Bradley and Martinez maybe.

I'm going to go a bit left field with my suggestion... Khan. If the twat actually boxed to a plan, his snap speed would cause Floyd problems. It would be a game of chess and to succeed he'd have to adopt a very 'boring' approach but his physical tools are unrivaled if only he'd use them efficiently.

That said, the prick has proved time & time again he can't/won't listen to reason and fights with his ego, which leads to his glass chin being inevitably smashed.

At 130 to '47. It's Broner, the new legit big thing. Floyd's time at the top is over. He's in his middle '30s; Broner's just 24.

Much as I hate to say it: It's Broner time!
