    Sup guys!? :bbb

    Thought this would be interesting, how do you see Floyd doing up against Whitaker's opponents, at the time Whitaker fought them (example, Whitaker was 35 fighting prime Tito Trinidad)

    Junior Middleweight    -> Julio Cesar Vasquez

    Welterweight     -> Felix Trinidad, Diosbleys Hurtado, Oscar Delahoya, Julio Cesar Chavez Sr, Buddy McGirt

    Below (135-130)->
    Azumah Nelson, Jose Luis Ramirez, Roger Mayweather, Rafael Pineda


    :good

    Well he ain't surviving 12 rnds with Trinidad . Trinidad knocks him out and sends him crashing down into the canvas In 8 .

    Not sure. To this day, Mayweather is still the best i ever seen. Doesnt have the resume to say hes #1 and never will be but techinally hes the best i ever seen. So it's just so hard to say how would he do against other fighters such as trinadad or Chavez sr etc etc.

    I would say he doesnt lose to any of those guys. Mayweather probaly has the most fights by anybody with losing the least rounds. hes consistenly beaten top competiton and barely losing 1-3 rounds every fight! Defense is top 5 ever and hes one of the fastest i ever seen too. Not to mention the most accurate boxer of all time (since compubox has been out). so with those stats, I say he sweeps them.

    Couldn't lay a finger on Oscar, but Floyd's out of there in 8th? OK.

    Typical dumb logic these PBF haters have. Couldn't hit Oscar with radar but hits and KOS arguably the best defensive fighter of all time.

    Sorry, but Tito is tailor made for Mayweather. Pot shots and movement all night. Floyd's chin is underrated. Even if Tito hits him flush, Floyd still doesn't go down.

    I went for two - I can see JCC taking the W and I think either a younger Oscar or Buddy Mcgirt could take a win against Floyd (neither of those two are certainties so I only took 1 between them).

    Tito seems to hit a bit too wide for Mayweather....I go back and forth on that fight.

    Couldn't stop a coked up Pernell but Floyd gets stopped? Nevermind the fact Floyd is one of the greatest defensive fighters ever and hasnt ever hit the deck.

    Floyd nearly gets knocked out from just "1" punch from Old Shane but he going to survive a flush punch from Trinidad . Sorry lol that's just not going to happen . BTW Floyd's chin is not underrated . It's rated just right . He was not able to absorb A single punch from Shane without holding on for dear life . That right there proves he's not durable enough to hang with a banger like Tito . Floyd's chin is very average nowhere near Iron

    Floyd defense tends to get overrated at times . He's hard to connect flush on , but he does get hit . Hatton caught him with 2 left hooks without too much difficulty in the 2nd rnd . ( go watch it) Shane caught him very early and was seconds away from knocking him out . Delahoya , Corley , Judah , Cotto all connected on him . People really needs to stop actin as if it's virtually impossible to touch Floyd . Floyd Mayweather gets hit people .

    Judah and Hernandez both made Floyd taste the canvas . It can happen again .

    Beats then all. The easiest fight would be Trinidad. The toughest Oscar
