Name all the fighters that you think would beat Mayweather thread

Margarito

 

Oscar - No
Mosley - No
Pacquiao - No
Whitaker - Yes
Leonard -Yes
Duran - Yes
Hearns - Yes
Robinson - Yes
Winky Wright - Yes
Vernon Forrest - Maybe, good call

 

**** no.

 

"Me"

Kell Brook Names all the fighters the he thinks would beat Mayweather

 

Williams before Martinez, seriously would have beat Floyd

 

SRL and Herns probably would of beat him, but then again, Floyd has the skills to hold his own and beat them both as well. Bottom line, if you put Floyd in the ring with any fighter within his weight class then or now, he would be a problem for them.

 

From 147 down:

Most likely would win, or toss up on who would win:
SRL
SRR
Whitaker
Duran
Benitez
Hearns
Armstrong
Gavilan
JCC

Decent chance to win:
Griffith
Ike Williams
DLH
Trinidad
Quartey
Camacho
Napoles

 

I agree with Kouchak about the Punisher, I thought he would conquer the world then Sergio got him

 

"Could..." beat Mayweather?

154: McCallum, Julian Jackson has a puncher's chance, and Norris can't be ruled out either. He's only fought once at the weight, so it's tough to say for sure.

147: SRR, SRL, Hearns, Kid Gavilan, Charley Burley, Carmen Basilio, Napoles, Gavilan. Curry and Starling have styles that might trouble Mayweather, and on a good day I could see guys like Holman Williams, Johnny Saxton, and Cocoa Kid pulling off wins as well.

140: Pryor, DLH, Locce and Loi immediately come to mind.

135: JCC, Duran, Whitaker, Armstrong, Benny Leonard and based on a style that was pretty similar to Mayweather. Pure boxers like Ken Buchanan, Joe Brown, and Ismael Laguna could pull off the win, and Carlos Ortiz was too good of a fighter to dismiss from the the discussion.

130: JCC, Armstrong. Arguello and Saddler have puncher's chances.

Those are the names that come to mind.

Edit:

Misread the title.

In terms of fighters that I would favor for sure over Mayweather, here's a somewhat shorter list.

Armstrong
Duran
SRR
SRL
Hearns
Burley
JCC at 130-135
Gavilan
DLH at 140

 

Quartey is a good shout.

Ike Williams would be horrible for Mayweather.

 

Prime Roy Jones - can't be touched.

 

Um, you do realise that Sergio says he would go down to a lower than 154 catchweight for a Floyd/Pac fight, and that Roy Jones was strictly speaking about that matchup in a P4P sense (ie if he was in the same weight division)... right?

 

:deal

Current fighters:

1. Martinez
2. Pacquiao
3. Prime Paul Williams
4. Prime Cotto

 

Back when Margarito was trying to make the fight happen and Mayweather fought Baldomir instead, **** yeah.

Many times in Mayweather's career was he vulnerable to certain fighters that he avoided, they then fell off and it resulted in him looking like he would automatically beat them. The Vivian Harris who beat Otkay Urkal would've gave the Mayweather who fought Gatti a pretty hard night. The Lazcano who beat Stevie Johnston would've really pushed the Mayweather who fought N'Dou or Cayo.

 

I think morales woulda been a helluva scrap at 130
i know im gonna get bashed for this since he only had 1 world level fight but valero at 130 or 135 woulda pushed floyd into waters hes never been in. im not sayin hed win but if he kan hit floyd good chance he kould finish him.
Sweat pea, duran, hearns, pryor, leonard(benny and sugar) the goat. Winky maybe, maybe forrest, young shane has a chance bug I think floyd kould get to him, youn goscar,
