    You should have a "none" choice

    I should have, but I wanted to include all of these guys and you can only have 10 options.

    I'm guessing you think none then?

    I see ouboxing Arguello and Chavez clearly at SFW as I feel H2H he was unstoppable at this division. 8-4 decision in both

    Floyd also outboxes Mosley at lightweight who was overrated at this class IMO. 9-3 Floyd

    Floyd vs Oscar @ 140 is possibly the weight division where both fighters would meet at their peaks. I see Floyd outboxing Oscar at this weight as his boxing superiority would be magnified at the weight and he would be more active and his mobility would also be top notch. 8-4 Floyd

    I am going on a limb and say that he finds a way to outbox Pryor at 140. 7-5 or split decision. I see Floyd outboxing him early keeping pryor off balance and countering coming in. Pryor makes a comeback late in the fight, but it won't be enough.

    I also see Floyd outboxing Trinidad at Welter. Trinidad was hook happy and needed his foot set to get off, Floyd would not give him the opportunity and I don't see Tito landing a bomb to end it all. 8-4 7-5 Floyd

    If you honestly believe Floyd beats no one on this list, you need to log out

    i'd pick none, but his best chances might of been vs. arguello. arguello the best 130lb fighter ever, he did have trouble with fighters with lateral movement like Ruben Castillo, whom Arguello was beating by only one point and ko'd later. Castillo was as fast as they came, but lacked the pop in his punches, why many think Salvador Sanchez might of been a close favorite vs. Arguello if they fought. floyd was much more offensive here while being less defensive and might of been alot more prone to arguello's power, who'd measure and pressure you while cutting the ring off, unlike with chico who came forward and depended only on hooks and had almost no defense. i wouldn't be surprised with a draw or split decision in arguello's favor, but of the fighter's on the list, i'd pick floyd to beat alexis

    I think PowerPuncher has been sniffing the old Tipp-Ex again, voting Floyd to beat the best lightweight ever... no, not Castilllo, I mean Duran.

    I think more times then not he beats Arguello and a pre-prime weight drained Chavez at superfeather.


    Outboxes Mosley but a hard fight for him.

    Maybe stays out of trouble to edge Tito...Im starting to regret choosing that one as Floyd just wasnt as good at welter.

    IMO Pryor, Oscar, and Chavez at those weights are the only men Floyd beats convincingly.
