    I feel this was one of the rare fights when two speed merchants met each other, was this Floyd`s toughest fight?

    Zab presented difficulties but wasn't competitive enough long enough to be considered his hardest fight

    Other than the De la Hoya fight, quite possibly.

    I was there live, by the way, and between Zab's fast start and the pandemonium that broke out after the low blow, the atmosphere was electric!

    Whenever Floyd faced an opponent who was faster than him ...he changed his style completely...no shoulder rolling...he became an educated pressure fighter . This is how I imagine him fighting Sugar Ray Leonard or Thomas Hearns

    There`s no way he could pressure Hearns, that would have been suicide.

    I’m not saying he would win ...he probably gets knocked out early

    If Mayweather did that vs Leonard or Hearns he's losing and has a good chance of getting stopped
