    Very true but even if he blocks one of their punches it will hurt him

    Outside the top 100. Isn't Owen Beck outside the top 100. How about Wiseman D'*****(lol) he's been KOd by 2 cruiserwieghts. And is ranked by boxrec in the top 200.

    And how many rounds we talking. Some ppl made the Haye/Valeuv argument, but that don't apply the way they were trying, sizewise. But what about shapewise. Athleticismwise. How many rounds could Gabe Brown chase Floyd around before succumbing to multiple 20 punch combinations?

    Haye literally won 5 rounds without landing more than 3 shots a round. And won the fight in a round he landed 12.

    Same way RJJ beat Ruiz. Potshot for 6 rounds, stack a few in the bank, get over the boos, then as the opponent gets desperate and starts chasing or lunging, he's caught repeated with counter combos.:hi:

    And several of us dislike Gayeweather. We just know he's got skills.:nono

    I think he would do OK in a 4-6 rounder, 12 rounds would take their toll i believe

    Of course, look at Dempsey.

    Dempsey was outweighed by 65 lbs against Williard.

    Floyd could totally beat bad heavyweights. As far as the best one he could beat? That one, I'll have to marinade on for awhile...

    No. Not at 147.

    He would need to bulk up to 180 first then I could see it happening.

    They wouldn't be afraid of his power at all and all they would need to do is make contact and bump into and trap into the ropes. They don't need to land clean, they could hit him on his arms and try to lean on him to zap his energy.

    STFU troll. I've read the nonesense you post, so get off my disk about posting something 'toughtful'.

    EVEN if Floyd builked up to 175, most of what made Floyd Mayweather 'Floyd Mayweather' would be lost due to his size increase. Hate to break it to kids like you, but floyd WOULD be hit, and he wouldn't have the cushion to absorb them and just return fire. A stiff jab from a heavy would knock him back or at least off balance enough to allow the HW to keep going.

    "You're the worst poster on this site".... :rofl Only a dumb kid like you would post something that meaningless here. That's the cry of the butthurt poster.

    :| You're the worst poster ever!!! :|

    :lol:

    Seen this type of post severl times here. Dempsey fought with his style that gave him success. Floyd isn't someone who's fought at 180. Ever.

    Floyd bulking up would lose most of what made him what he is today. Hell, he's MUCH less mobile as a WW then he ever was at SprFW.
