    Well I think Morales would of gave Floyd a tough fight but still would come up short. I do think vice versa the Marquez that fought Floyd would beat Manny...wait..

    He already did.

    PBF was too big too good for MAB and would beat any version of MAB easily.

    I was doing this on the understanding you'd go in and have Pac/Mayweather fight a corresponding opponent at the same time as their counterpart did. So the 2007 154 pound DLH. DLH at that point in time was slower, flat-footed, attacked in straight lines, and his primary offense were sloppy flurries. He was VERY faded when Floyd fought him, and Floyd still had a lot of trouble with him. Pacquiao could beat that version of Oscar too, though he'd have more trouble with him then he did with the 2008 dehydrated zombie he ended up fighting.

    If we're talking prime versions of each fighter on each guy's resume, it becomes a very different question, and with different answers. Prime DLH takes both, for instance. Prime Mosley likewise stands a great chance of victory against both. But both Pacquiao and Mayweather caught the best names on their resume when both were well out of their prime. Which is why they could beat everyone on each other's resumes if this isn't a prime for prime/name value question.

    Dude, just stop it.

    Margo was an overrated bum who had to cheat to be competitive against the upper ranks of fighters.

    Floyd would have clowned Margo even with the concrete. :deal

    Did you see Morales next fight where he was completely outboxed by Raheem or the first Espadas fight?
