Who Can Beat Floyd Mayweather?

I honestly believe that there is no one from 147 down that can currently. I believe the kind of fighter who could beat him was a Vernon Forrest, long reach, STIFF jab, powerful right hand, completely fundamental fighter. And there is no one like that right now. The only punch ive seen that seems to connect with any frequency on him is a jab. This is IMO what Pacquiao fans do not get. He's seen the speed, the power, the awkward styles, the volume punching and has dealt with them all, just fine. Cotto proved though that he still has trouble with that 1 punch.

 

Pacquiao has no jab. None.

 

I would go as far as saying 154lbs or below - there isn't really a threat to his 0!

 

I was going to say that, but he really has no business fighting at 154.

 

Well, he's had two fights there and one at 152, and he won all of them handily. No, he's not a natural 154lb fighter, but I'd pick him to beat anyone currently fighting at that weight. ****, I'd even pick him to beat most middleweights... And he wouldn't need to put on any more weight to do it.

 

Thats true, no doubt.

 

Defo not Pacquiao... Just killing that one off the bat.
Don't see anyone @WW or Jr. welterweight coming up that would cause any problems for Mayweather either.

154lbs & above would be he the only chance.

Style wise... Trout & Lara give Floyd a different look.
The MW's we got GGG & Quillin who are HUGE compared to May.

A rematch Vs. Alvarez @154 is still a viable fight I'd like to see happen as Floyd's farewell fight.

 

I'd love to see him go up to 160 and challenge Sergio for the lineal championship.

 

I'm not saying they would win or lose, but currently the only two that I think have a little more than a puncher's chance are Danny Garcia and Timothy Bradley.

I would bet against both to lose but I think if you take the pool of fighters that are a real possibility they are the only two that even stand a chance. I think Bradley has a better shot than Garcia...dude fears no living man or animal on earth and is a bonified legend killer..

 

Serg looks shot...he may have one good fight left in him, if that.

 

That would be the best fight for Floyd that is left "legacy" wise.
(Even better than easily UD'ing PAC)

 

And if I had my way it would be against Mayweather at 160. :yep

 

Father Time.
