    Pac. He would have been the favorite back in 2009 but I still think he beats him.

    I voted Pac.

    Pacquiao - Most experienced, elite boxer on this list. His height and reach would be his doom IMO but he'd make it highly competitive with his skills and speed. In 2009, 2010, I think he probably would've won or at least made it extremely competitive. Now, in 2014/2015, I think he loses pretty lopsided. I give Pacquiao the majority of rounds 1-6, but rounds 7-11 would be a clinic for Floyd. But we will never know until they step in the ring. Best match up still. 116-112 Mayweather.

    Bradley - Bradley is hyper enough and reckless enough to at least make Floyd uncomfortable at times, but he's ultimately a boxer, and Floyd has mastered BOXING. Bradley doesn't have anything in his arsenal to trouble Floyd except for the way he beat Alexander, but that wouldn't win him rounds vs Floyd. Bradley gets desperate, abandons his game plan from about rounds 4-6, and probably only wins those rounds. He gasses and gets picked apart late. 118-110 Mayweather

    Algeri - Algieri's style is enough to trouble Floyd pretty bad actually. He's got the height, reach, and footwork to stay outside and pepper Floyd with jabs, leaving him very little to counter. We'd see Floyd step up his activity, cut the ring off, and lure Algieri into some traps. This would be a very tactical fight with Floyd playing stalker at times but ultimately winning a majority/split decision via snoozer. 115-113 Mayweather/Algieri

    Lara - @ 154 he puts up a good fight, he's a stylistic nightmare for Floyd. At 147, he loses. It's Lara-Trout all over again, minus the knock down, except Floyd is Lara. 117-111 Mayweather

    Khan - Khan would do better than everyone thought in 2013. It's funny, in 2013, Khan is a cherry pick and doesn't deserve it. In 2014, he's being ducked? Anyway, with Khan's hand speed and range, he'd give Floyd problems and probably win the first 4 or 5 rounds or at least most of them. How does he lose? He eats counters and lead right hands all night. 116-112 or 115-113 Mayweather

    Brook - Don't jump on the Brook-hype too quickly. A lot of peopel severly underrated him, but his methodical style plays right into Floyd's hands. 118-110 Mayweather.

    Just my opinion. Out of those listed though, Pacquiao has the best shot. Algieri or Lara give him tough fights.

    Hype-train, all aboard!

    Calm down, Floyd is beatable. Barely though, even at age 37.

    Agreed. Pac would've given him tons of problems in 2009. Floyd was too flat footed. I think he could've outboxed Pac but he'd take some damage, and I'm not sure his chin holds up.

    Pretty safe assumption you're European.
