    at 147 Paul Williams would have given Floyd alot of issues, dont know how well Floyd would have done with the size disparity against an undefeated Paul Williams

    I know i was just fooling about. At 140 it was just Gatti, but how good was gatti though. Maybe even chop chop but he didnt stay there long so it is ehat it is. In 05 biggest fight at 40 would have been Tyszu

    He fought the number one guy at 130lbs (Corrales), the number one guy at 135lbs (JLC) twice, the number one guy at welterweight on a couple of different occasions, and the number one guy at 154 on a couple of different occasions. Promotional maneuvering notwithstanding, he still managed to face just about everyone he needed to face in those weight classes.

    Now...Put him in the 70's, with the same willingness to fight the best available and with less leverage to negotiate...He's probably fighting the best available.

    I actually disagree with this pick. Norris could win, but Brown proved that he could be countered to death. Then again, I've always thought Terrible Terry was a little overrated, personally.

    Williams was a sucker for counter punchers and simply has a horrible ring iq he fought dumb too often giving up his reach advantage.

    Yeah but Floyd would have to be punching up, and williams as we know was aggressive and would be putting alot of pressure on Floyd.. It would have bern interesting but i still see that version of paul giving Floyd fits.

    But he never beat a prime ATG-type fighter so the criticism is valid.

    Yes the MAN!!! That made Floyd literally **** himself by merely walking up to him & asking " Why wont you fight me" ?
    Answer hysterical blabbering like Daffy Duck until finally losing control of his bowels. This was witnessed by a room full of people plus recorded on video for posterity I'm glad you finally admit what a h2h terror Tony was Pimp you'll sleep better at nights now
