Other than Duran, who could beat Floyd?

I pick Napoles, Pryor & Chavez at 140. Duran, Armstrong, Chavez, Whitaker and he could certainly lose to others at 135. At 130: Armstrong & Chavez. Prime De La Hoya beats Floyd at all three weights.

Strange call of someone I always thought would give Mayweather massive problems at 130, is Fenech from the Nelson and Martinez fights.

 

No one, not even Duran

 

FYI, Leonard had a 69" reach, Duran a 66" reach. Leonard was very quick, quicker on his feet than Duran.

 

Napoles over Duran? I doubt that.

 

What?

 

This is Benny Leonard compared to Mayweather not Duran

 

Even though he should've lost to Castillo lol.

 

No one I would pick with confidence from 140 (and very few at Welter as well) and below. Some names mentioned have a chance of pulling it off, but I am not sure there is anyone I would bet on doing it. I see a few very close fights that could swing either way, but I am in the minority for sure.

 

Away from the corruption in the den of iniquity, Vegas, Floyd has had at least 4 or 5 losses 0ne N/C & would have had a very long ban for the IV gate debacle. Everyone KNOWS why he did it. Man I wish they could have convinced the fraud to take on Antonio Margarito. To see Mayweather absolutely demolished alone would be worth the PPV. Remember Cotto?? As Tony slowly advanced Quitto backed away into the corner & sank to his knees in total surrender

 

And Duran lost to Esteban de jesus

 

Proven - Jose Castillo

Very Likely - Armstrong at 135 &140

Somewhat Likely - Pryor at 140, Whitaker at 135 & 140

Possible - Ike Williams at 135, Julio Cesar Chavez at 135 & 140

 

How do we know who could beat him? He always handpicked everyone he fought. He fought Manny when Manny was old. It was all a construction of a record. He is a smart person who knows exactly who to fight and when. I give him credit.

 

Antonio Cervantes would be a tough out

 

Leonard at 147 lbs
Whitaker at 135
Hearns at 147
Chavez at 135 lbs.
Randall at 140 lbs.

 

Have you forgotten about the plaster fiasco. Cotto was likley hit with tamprered gloves. Margarito was nothing after getting busted for that
