    he would be in tears in the ring screaming of some injury he sustained prior to the fight or claiming he was drugged... and the worst thing is all of his lovers on here would buy it.

    I pictured the guy who would beat Floyd would be a guy like Vernon Forrest to Mosley. Taller and good right hand. Floyd would not fight that guy. He is fighting guys his size like Mosley and Pacman who he can outbox. He will not fight the tall rangy guys with power like Mosley did because he knows that kind of guy will beat him. I doubt he would have fought Tito. Mosley would have-not that Tito had a right hand, but he was taller and was always looking for the knockout.

    Mosley is bigger then Floyd simp. And there is no Vernon Forrest in boxing today. The closest would be Paul Williams and he doesnt have the skill of Vernon Forrest.

    Oh and Mayweather would have Hopkins Tito.

    I can't see Mayweather getting taken out like Roy did. Mayweather has much better textbook defense than Roy did, that favors getting older and losing reflexes, you defense should be strong enough to keep you from getting sparked.

    Roy was caught totally out of position, wide open.... Something that could have happened quite a few times in his prime, but he had those insane reflexes. He was also studied by a good taller southpaw, that made it his life goal to beat Roy Jones. Although the way to beat Roy Jones was discovered after he was past his best, I don't think the Mayweather riddle will be solved as easily. I expect him to be one of the older fighters still successful.

    I see Floyd's 1st lost as being a somewhat controversial UD...a decision that he'll swear up and down he won until his dying day..."they robbed me, man!" oh, I can just hear his mouth now...:-(

    If Mayweather did beat a prime Tito, it wouldn't be as emphatic as Hopkins' victory was.

    He will probably retire undefeated.

    I am expecting his retirement announcement after Mosley.
