    I would favor Floyd against Leonard and Duran. He loses to Hears, Hagler, and Benitez. I favor manny to beat Duran and Benitez but he loses to Leonard, hearns and Hagler. But....if Floyd and Manny were natual wws/jmw, i would favor them to beat all the guys from the Fab 4

    That even if it`s true does not make him a better fighter than Pernell
    You really need to change your name

    I wouldn't favour him other Leonard and I would pick Duran, though he could possibly win that

    He`s got a far better right hand than Oscar had and is far better at welter than Chavez was.

    Duran may have been the greatest fighter of all-time, Manny had a ton of flaws.

    What I meant was that Oscar was too one-fisted.

    He probably loses to both.

    Yes.

    50-50 fight.


    No, Pac loses to Duran

    50-50 fight.



    Yes.


    Meaningless statement...same as saying Floyd would beat Ali if he was a natural HW.
    Too many unknowns there.

    Zero logic applied, with no thought of how they’d have matched up stylistically.

    They were nothing alike.

    You’re just writing nonsense.

    Now tell me where the evolution is.

    Your level of thinking.

    How would Floyd have beaten Hearns had he have been a natural WW?

    He’d have needed to have been a complete different fighter, with completely different attributes, with a completely different style to have beaten Hearns.

    You can’t just say that he’d have beaten Hearns had he have been a bit bigger.

    It’s now got to the point where you’re just waffling illogical nonsense.
