I think Cotto is too slow for Floyd. Pac will hit him, but not hurt him. Williams to me had the best chance, but he moved up in weight and I doubt he can get back into the 140's.
Wow, I do not even know what to say to this. Maybe I need to puff on some crack and re-read it? I'm not sure if you're picking fun at me or what's going on here?!
I'm pretty confident that Williams would beat him. His reach is just so damn long that when Floyd rolls his shoulder, Williams would still be able to punch him in the face. Other than that? Martinez, Dzinziruk and Santos all might give him trouble at 154. Mosley would give him his toughest fight at 147. I think he dominates either Cotto or Pacquiao.
toughest prolly paul. Paul got great chance bc of his size, workrate, and toughness but most of his wins are against people who doesn't have good footwork. Quintana got a lucky win against an unmotivated paul but when paul decides to turn it up in mid rounds he still lost so is not sure thing that he can beat floyd. I mean floyd is much better than Quintana. shane got a 40%, pac got about 35% and cotto got about 10% chance. cotto is too slow and leaky defense. Floyd is better than cotto in everyway except power.
I'll pick five: Margarito: the 2006 version was too big, too strong, too relentless. Cotto: too much firepower, desire and diversified clever attack. too rough and dangerous for floyd. Cotto fights for pride and honor, people who fight for money like floyd fear the Cottos of the world. Mosley: floyd showed anxiety and discomfort when Shane confronted him in the ring. You just know floyd doesn't want to mess with that experience and those wicked skills. Pacquiao: Like COtto he fights for pride and honor and his people over $. With speed and KO power and the southpaw stance and rapid movements, floyd would be terribly confused. He could not control this relentless buzzsaw and would be knocked out. Thus it's why he will duck Pac/Cotto and go after a Hatton rematch. Paul Williams; Brutal mismatch which floyd would never even talk about or comtemplate, let alone actually get in the ring and try. Williams 12 rounds to 0. Easy work.
RA the Rugged straight up told Floyd that Margarito, Williams and Mosley would beat his ass :rofl:rofl:rofl
Man, Williams has got to be one of the most overrated fighters to come around in some time. And to think I used to think highly of him. Floyd would counter him to no end and after the fight everyone would think he was the next coming of Christ, when in reality it would just expose how limited Williams is. People talk about him like he's Tommy Hearns or something. Floyd is the best fighter in the world today along with Pacquiao, who is simply too small to accomplish much in a bout between the two. Floyd's a great fighter, but by all time standards he doesn't stand out in my mind. Mostly because of his career choices and attitude in regards to greatness, but also because I believe his skill-set is overrated. How I wish he fought in a different era.
06 Margo is too plastered. Floyd UD Cotto and his sense of pride and honor in the low blow would get the loss. UD Floyd Mosley would be a good fight but haters will call him too old after his loss. UD Floyd. Pac-also would be entertaining, this would be like Lacy/Calzage II.Pac would get knocked down 3 times. Floyd SD . One judge is a *******. And ole Paulie with his 5 inches in height and 10 inch reach advantage would get the disappointing loss. SD Floyd.
Would you include his skill set at 130 in this, at super feather i think he was close to the complete fighter, he has become less effective as he has moved up in that there can be no argument.
