    Current-day Mayweather vs. the Honeyghan that stopped Donald Curry.

    I'll say Honeyghan by either UD or late TKO.

    Honeyghan was fast, elusive and aggressive on his best night against Curry.
    26 years old and a proper fully-fledged welterweight, and full of confidence.

    Mayweather just hasn't beaten anyone like that. I think that version of Honeyghan would probably overwhelm him.

    I agree:good Mayweather has never faced anyone like Lloyd or ever will, he's faster than Floyd who's out gunned in all departments here & the more i'am thinking about it the more i see Honeyghan dominating this for a shutout rout or late TKO.

    As already said mayweather has not fought anybody as good as the honeyghan of the curry fight . This though is a really close fight at the moment just honeyghan for me but it is very close

    After watching the slow Maidana give him all he could handle , I think the Ragamuffin Man was to active , to fast, to fearless and relentless for Mayweather.

    This is against 37 y/o Floyd?

    I went with Floyd. Honeyghan got schooled pretty good by Starling and Lloyd's win over Curry was partially due to Donald having massive problems keeping his weight down as well not having anywhere near the defensive skills that Mayweather had.

    Yeah if you want to talk about the 37 year old Floyd of today or the one who handed Ricky Hatton his ass 7 years ago.. I think the latter would probably be a little more fair.

    I tend to agree. Honeyghan,on that night,would have been a handful for any welter in history. Only the VERY best would have beaten him. Pity Lloyd did n't maintain that form

    Floyd would pick apart the strong but wild Honeyghan. Easy decision.

    Prime Honeyghan has the speed, pressure and technique to win this and I rate Floyd highly.

    Seems like the most likely outcome.
