    Floyd gets killed at the press tour. He would not survive the promotion.

    Duran outboxes Mayweather at 135 and 140. He outfights him at 147 and 154.

    Duran would be Mayweather's worst nightmare.

    The Duran that fought SRL in their 1st bout beats any version of Floyd.

    Hearns would be Floyd's worst nightmare. Duran would be an even pick across the board. Only weight class I'd favor Duran completely was at 135. The higher in weight the more Floyd would be favored.

    Duran without a doubt is a greater fighter but style wise Mayweathers all wrong for him. You don't beat Duran by being a powerful warrior type, you beat Duran by frustrating him by making him miss and outsmarting him. I think Mayweather would edge this despite Duran being close to a top 5 ATG

    I agree. Too bad that fight wasn't at 154. Duran lost to Benetiz at 154 and got KOed by Hearns there

    Floyd beats him at any weight, shockingly easy. It looks like SRL-Duran II because Floyd would never make the stupid mistake of trying to make it a brawl.
