    1. MAB in 2003 was a prime fighter. That's a dead horse, it's beaten to death the consensus is he was prime.

    2. The size would be a factor. I don't know how much, but if Floyd could beat him at 130 I'd say if it was at 126 it wouldn't have made that much a difference.

    FMJ wins, possibly by knockout.

    In 2001 Floyd probably could have made 126. He rhydrated to only 136 against Corrales.

    Mayweather at 130 is a whole different animal, he'd be too skilled,fast and strong vs Barerra and possibly stop's him.

    Between Barerra,Marquez,& Morales at 130, I'd give Morales the best chance because during his prime he trained under Mayweather sr so he might have some clue's on how to make it difficult. The other two get wiped out.

    We don't know though. You cannot just say that so confidently. I'm fine with you thinking Floyd would win, but to say at as fact is kind of ridiculous IMO.

    Floyd has never faced a fighter of the quality of Morales, Barrera or Marqeuz. Prime Versions of course....

    Triangle theories dont work in boxing....Morales could have done better at 130 against floyd then barerra no one knows..i think its a very realistic possibility.

    Barrera was one hell of a technician and would give anyone fits including MW
