    The two Castillo fights tell me that Floyd would try to run, be hunted down, dominated, and stopped. The lightweight Duran is the equal of anyone to ever lace them up. He is several leagues above Floyd.

    I think it would be more competitive than most probably think on here.(regardless of anything else, I think he is incredibly gifted) But I think Duran would force Floyd to fight and eventually wear him down and out.

    i agree Duran beats him. but keep in mind that he had injured hands in the first Castillo fight. There is one particular sequence where he totally outclasses Castillo on the inside in the first fight. Mayweather lacked that explosiveness in the 2nd fight for some reason though.

    Duran was a goddamn beast at 135. No way would Mayweather have even considered taking the fight.

    I agree that duran wins 9 of 10 times but floyd could possibly do what Leonard did and frustrate him and have him pull a no mas like scenario

    maybe not quit but totally let his temper get the best of him

    I think Floyd would give him fits

    duran would win

    Mayweather would ask for OSDT in between rounds.

    Aw this is a **** on Floyd thread. I got Duran by decision. Floyd doesn't let himself get hit enough for him to be KOed and Floyd has a good chin, but damnit Duran is a monster

    PBF had a **** load of lateral movement at 135. He would give Duran hell who struggled with speed and movement. But Duran is arguably the GOAT at 135. With that said PBF mtches up well with Duran, better than most.

    If he cut his hair, it wouldn't be flailing everywhere, and his opponent wouldn't be distracted.
