    So, Floyd stays @ 130 a few more years and takes on the following fighter MAB, EM, Pac, Casa, and JMM.

    Who does he beat and if he beats all four where does he now place in the ATG rankings?

    I am asking because some may believe that his legacy would be better today had he stayed at that weight a little longer.

    Floyd would never be 130 again, so the thread is nonsense.
    Floyd never fought anyone who compares with Marquez or Paq, so we will never know how he would have done against anyone that good . Yeah, he's got Hatton and Corrales on the resume' but neither of those guys are quite on the level of Paq of JMM.
    It would have been interesting to say the least

    I didn't say if he goes back down to 130, I said if had stayed there a little longer. "That" good doesn't fit these 4 fighters as Floyd would be superior to them in every single aspect at that weight.

    Floyd was certainly superior physically to them, yes . But they are better fighters than anyone Floyd ever faced , and boxing skills can offset physical advantages. If I had to bet , I would put my money on Floyd, certainly. But I wouldn't be shocked to see him lose to a Marquez either.
    By the way, your avatar is wonderful.

    He beats them all easily except for Casamayor who has the best chance... A prime, southpaw casamayor has the speed, skills, and the power to throw floyd off his game... Casa is probably the craftiest fighter floyd has ever met..

    Floyd/Casa can go either way. It's about styles and if floyd has a weakness, it's against the southpaws.

    Floyd beats them all. He possibly stops JMM & EMorales late, He probably just beats MAB like 8-4, winning all the later rounds. And Casa would be tough, he probably beats Casa 8-4.
