    Even this version of Paul Williams presents the most difficult obstacle for Money. Close second is Lara.

    I don't see how you could rate Lara above Martinez.

    To be honest, I don't know if Lara will ever get to Martinez' level; however, Lara is still improving, and he does have a great shot, but not as good as Martinez' in my opinion.

    LMFAO...Cintron did not have the "one punch KO power" by the time he fought.

    Cintron is also not as skilled as Mayweather.. Floyd would be able to use a 1-2 all night and he'd also be able to pop shot Angulo.

    Floyd's footwork would be to much for Angulo too. But in the end, skills would put Floyd levels above Angulo.

    Your trippin bro...Floyd would be a 12-1 favorite...easy fight...you talkin non ranked opponents man..

    Keep trying though.:deal

    If by demolish, you mean win a competitive decision, and take shots in the process, I could agree with you.

    I think Floyd is the favorite.

    Martinez - the one and only problem I see is his size. Skill-wise, he isn't in FMJ's league.

    Pacquiao - It'll be the same story we've seen before. Pac might have some early success, the FMJ will proceed to thoroughly school him.

    Angulo - Might trouble FMJ a bit, a la Cotto, but I don't see FMJ losing

    Williams - A careful, measured FMJ would win easily. An aggressive FMJ would make the fight a lot more interesting.

    Lara - Easy FMJ win

    Alvarez - Not ready for FMJ

    Pacquiao is not as strong as Cotto, nor does he have the inside fight game Cotto has.

    Pacquiao makes more mistakes than Cotto inside the ring. Floyd could land a 1-2 jab right hand when Pac throws his amatuer hooks.

    When Pacquiao runs in, Floyd could pivot his back foot and land that right hand HARD.

    Floyd by T/KO in 7....maybe 8 rounds. Pac don't have the size, strength, length, or footwork to **** with Floyd man..

    To many technical mistakes...Floyd would capitalize on those mistakes...

    I'm not sure you watched that fight or you just don't remember it.

    Cintron was holding on to Angulo and using his wrestling skills almost as much as he was using his boxing skills.

    Floyd doesn't have the strength to manhandle Angulo like that, and it's not his style anyway.

    And Cintron may not be knocking people out like he used to, but he certainly punches much harder than Floyd. I think that's indisputable.

    Cintron is also much bigger than Floyd, and while his boxing skills obviously aren't on Floyd's level, he can still box, but it's his power, size, and wrestling skills that beat a green Angulo.

    And it doesn't matter where Angulo is ranked. That doesn't make a difference.

    It's the matchup. And in this case, one of the last fighters Floyd would want to get in the ring with would be Angulo.

    We can only speculate that Floyd has enough in him to stay off the ropes for the entire duration of the fight, but it's doubtful because like Cotto, Angulo will use his superior strength to push Floyd against the ropes and hit him from unorthadox angles.

    The question is, does Floyd have his legs, and can he avoid being on the ropes long enough to win a decision.

    It's a fight that Floyd could win a wide decision, but he would get beat up in this fight and possibly stopped.

    I don't see why you keep bringing up the relevance of Angulo's ranking because in my opinion, it's irrelvant.

    I doubt this fight is going to happen. I'm just telling it like I see it.

    I'm not sure there is any point arguing with you. It's obvious you got an agenda against Pac and you think Floyd can't be beat by I guess any fighter but Andre Ward.

    And even then, you'd probably have Floyd as the favorite.

    Manny presents different angles than does Cotto. I agree that Manny may not be as physically strong as Cotto, but he has better stamina, and is a much harder puncher, and he brings speed, accuracy, quickness, and fast feet to the table.

    You put up a video of an opponent running from Pacquaio. I don't see what that proves. He knocked Shane down and won every round except for the one where Shane scored a dubious knockdown.

    How exactly does that help your argument?

    And what makes it less credible is you say Floyd will KO him in 8 rounds.

    I don't see that happening in 8, much less 12.

    Not only does Manny have a chin and is much harder to hit than you make it seem, he's also an adept counterpuncher, so even if Mayweather hurts him, he can't get complacent and try to take Pacquaio out because Pacquaio could land something big and put Mayweather out.

    Pacquaio has the legs and the recovery ability to get away if he does get hurt.

    Honestly, I think that's a terrible prediction and it's driven by hatred.

    :patsch:rofl:rofl Based on there last 3 fights, I'll go with Floyd by UD 120-108. Your comparing Cintron in an entirely different way that I am. Floyd would be able to pop shot Angulo and move...12-1 underdog...

    Why don't you do a poll on it and let's see who picks this fantasy fight?:think

    Angulo is a very easy fight for Floyd...ranking comes in because Floyd does not fight fighters as low ranked as Angulo.

    Floyd's footwork, better technical skills, longer reach, quicker handspeed, straighter punches, give Angulo fits bro...you may not see it but most of us here do...

    NOTE-YOU THE ONLY ONE ARGUING THIS.:rofl
