    Castillo beating Mayweather
    Maidana beating Mayweather if you take any two scorecards of Floyd fanboys which make a case for a Maidana victory
    Salido beating Lomachenko

    - same stylistic threat there.

    In the first fight, Forrest decided to stand and trade like an idiot, which led to him getting stopped.

    What troubles Floyd the most isn't speed. It's relentless pressure and a good jab.

    Golovkin-like pressure isn't as hard for Mayweather than a Castillo/Maidana/Salido type pressure - they steal rounds via effective aggression, but they're not scientific enough in their point scoring, otherwise they could win fights by a much bigger margin against great pure boxers. They don't try to coast rounds that they know they've won...they end up losing their stamina and giving more opportunities for the boxer to start timing.

    Naseem Hamed against anyone that has solid fundamentals, a proper boxing brain, a good chin, and serious counter punching skills. Did I say that?

    The second fight was what I was referring to. There should have been no way Mayorga could outpoint Forrest in the rematch. But he did, and he did it with awful technique.:deal

    Salido beating loma was due to corrupt reffing and allowing a guy to miss weight and pretty much be a full fledge jr middle and allow him to fight outside of the rules all night
