    I was re watching some fights of Morales and damn what a badass. This guy had so much heart , a great style, and a hard punch ... how would he have done against Mayweather?

    Mayweather

    Morales didn't really belong at 130, and Floyd was the best ever at that weight.

    Mayweather wins, probably a wide decision, i don't think he would take morales out though

    Floyd was quality at 130, he'd take Morales by UD.

    What mayweather fights have you seen at 130, the only one you could even say he ran in was coralles, who he knocked down 5 times and stopped in 10 but floyd mainly fought of the backfoot, so basically you talking ****

    From his own era, i don´t think anyone would have beat Floyd at 130. Prime Mosley could have done it if he would have lost the 5lbs.

    Floyd for me in this one. As mentioned EM shouldnt really have fought at 130 anyway. However I think the welterweight styled Floyd would actually put in a better performance against EM than the 130lb Floyd. Either way Mayweather takes it for me.

    EM is one of my all time favs but as much as i dislike pbf i find it hard to see many boxers in history beating him at 130 it would be close but pbf would just get it i think

    Floyd would take this at 130. Morales was at his best at 122 and 126.
