    For entertainment purposes....much rather watch Tito slug it out, than "watching paint dry (Mayweather)".

    Tito would be the most dangerous opponent that Floyd would have ever met at the weight...but I think Mayweather would make the necessary adjustments, and take a clear decision.

    I agree, but I think Tito lost against DLH and ha was the only guy near Floyd's class who Tito fought at 147.

    If it goes the distance without Floyd getting hurt he wins, if he gets hurt he either losses by decision or by TKO. It's a close call, but I'm leaning towards Tito in this match up.

    Tito was good but one dimensional. Floyd would have beaten him easily
