    Nobody can beat a marathon runner. Floyd runs like hell to beat his opponents.

    The boxer who can use his footwork the best.

    Floyd has been cherry picking fights so carefully for the past 5-8 years I don't know how so many hold him in such a high regard but slowly people are coming around

    Who cares, he's done everything in the sport.

    Is he not allowed 1 sub-par opponent? :patsch

    All the great fighters in the past have done this.

    buffy floyd completely shat on that dumb prediction you provided for us. you picked against him once, are you dumb enough to do it twice?

    I'm not a fan of E. Lara but he might present some problems at 154. I'm not a fan of A. Khan either but same goes for him at 147. A rematch with Pacquiao might be a tough fight despite what some will say. I honestly wouldn't mind seeing him vs. T. Bradley.

    Mayweather would win both most likely but style-wise... difficult fights on paper.

    Obviously GGG but I didn't want to go above 154.

    Give him a ref who penalises him for illegal moves like holding, elbows, headlocks etc. and give him judges that don't score clinches, headlocks, elbows and running. Easy. The guy wins not by boxing, but outright allowed illegal moves. It's like allowing his opponent to low blow all night and not get penalised.
