    I think Moseley beats him, Oscar smokes him and the manny fight is a toss up.

    Oscar does the best but i think floyd beats them all. Hence why pac and mosley both avoided him

    Pac and Oscar smoke him. Shane fight plays out the same. Shane was never on those guy's level.

    He beats all three. Pac decisively at any time. I called him to beat Mosley in 1999 when Shane said he was moving up in weight and Floyd wanted him to stay at 135 for one more fight. Oscar would've been even more competitive than when they fought, but Floyd simply would've upped his game and found a way to outbox and beat that Oscar too.

    This! Two ATGs in their primes will almost always be a very competitive fight.

    I'd also tend to pick Floyd against all 3, but OTOH given 3 fights there's a decent chance one would beat Floyd. ODLH probably the most likely in my opinion assuming he has his judges.

    Floyd wins vs Pac like in 2015, but in a better and higher-pased fight.

    Floyd wins vs Mosley in a close fight (Mosley had it all but ring IQ to defeat Floyd, so he'd be competitive but still loses)

    Oscar would be the toughest opponent of all 3 due to his size advantage (and higher ring IQ than Mosley). Depends much on which judges would score the fight.

    He def loses at least once. De La Hoya way past it on booze and drugs ran him close.
    Mosley way past it rocked him.
    Pac way past it and Floyd on juice by most accounts did respectable losing clearly.

    Prime for prime he def loses once maybe twice

    I think Oscar and Shane beat him and he beats Pacman.

    No, De La Hoya's best punch is the jab. He doesn't win when he doesn't jab.

    Pac is too small send him back to lightweight against Floyd ! Throw in Felix Trinidad.

    Floyd 3-0

    Floyd vs Pacman, Floyd always wins due to reach advantage

    Floyd vs De La Hoya at 130/135, Oscar loses close decision, gets flash dropped by Floyd fast right. Oscar potent power in the left hand is neutralized by Floyd lateral movement.

    Floyd vs Mosley at 135, based on Floyd reaction to Mosley perfect right hand, it eliminates the KO power advantage, close decision if repeated a draw becomes possible. Mosley work rate at 135 was higher & more effective
