    Close indeed.
    Floyd had superb conditioning, but Buchanan can match him there.
    I’d favour Buchanan by decision. Buchanan was 26 when he fought Duran, if Roberto isn’t around I reckon he rules the lightweights for at least another 3-4 years

    It was always a bit of a disaster for Ken when his left got counterfeited. Even Watt with that solid, unspectacular but consistent left put him in hoc a bit. If he ruled with the left, Ken was capable of beating anyone, but if not...Mayweather gets a bloody nose and is inconvenienced on his way to a nevertheless comfortable UD win.

    Truth is, Buchannan always rose to the occasion- Floyd? Not so much.
