    I'm surprised so many think Floyd would beat Tito. What has PBF ever done at 147 that makes people think he could cope with a huge, powerful, proven quality ww champ?

    I chose Pryor as my only pick, I was considering Tito if Floyd ran for 12 rounds, but I can't see him beat any of the others, especially as the de la Hoya at light welter would have had the stamina and speed to jab Floyd for 12 rounds.

    Tito couldnt handle Oscars boxing ability for 10 rounds, how would he handle Floyds? Please name a fighter that Tito beat in his prime anywhere close to Floyds ability. Joppy? Vargas lol? Please. Tito's struggles against fighters that you know, moved, were apparent when he fought Oscar and Hopkins.

    I personally would put Duran at lw in the category of he definately loses against, and put Pryor and Trinidad up to the 50/50 catagory. Truthfully I've never seen Floyd fight anyone who had significantly more power than him, which would certainly be the case against Trinidad. That being the case one has to wonder how well he could take those kinds of punches. With Duran same story, but add better defense and all kinds of pressure (ie an all out war) and again it's something we haven't seen.

    There is a lot of 50/50 fights in there & I gave Mayweather the benefit of the doubt in those 50/50 fights like I did with Pacquiao when I voted Rog May (def win), Taylor (50/50) & Tszyu (50/50)

    I voted Mayweather over.....

    Arguello at 130 (speed)
    Chavez at 130 (50/50... JCC wins at 135 tho & 140 is 50/50)
    Oscar at 140 (55/45)
    Pryor at 140 (skills, accuracy)
    Trinidad at 147 (too much of an artist, would see Tito coming a mile off)


    I voted against Floyd with.....

    Duran at 135 (70/30 Duran)
    Whitaker (60/40 Pea)
    Mosely at 135 (55/45 SSM)
    Leonard at 147 (no comment)
    Hearns at 147 (see directly above)

    I think Mosely was a better LWT than Floyd but Floyd was slightly better at SFWT than Mosely was at LWT, still, Floyd could easily win a LWT fight between the 2.

    Look at the trouble Pryor had in his prime vs a fading/faded Arguello, a guy who stood in front of Aaron & let him be at his best.... & these mythical match-ups are prime for prime based dont forget.

    Of course Pryor could beat Mayweather but personally, I think Floyd UDs him, clean punching & defence will see this one out.
