    No doubt he's a challenge, but he's just far too hittable an predictable for Mayweather.

    I've been in a ring and it's clear that Floyd wouldn't have to run from Angulo. Silva was tagging Angulo almost at will against the ropes, Floyd would simply have to walk along the perimiter while potshotting, and once cornered, land almost every power punch he throws as Angulo telegraphs. It wouldn't be long before they start to take a toll on his face and disrupt his focus, and Floyd would have it easier as the fight went on.

    He's big, he's tough, he hits hard, and he's got a chance, but the Floyd Mayweather we've seen in the ring so far would hit him when he wanted and see everything coming back at him.

    Something you're obviously missing in your equation...bro Angulo is ****ing ****. I mean it's not that size doesn't matter, of course it does, the problem with your scenario is that Angulo is a shell of who he was...between Kirkland sonning him and his time locked up, he's done. To put him in with the best fighter on earth would seem ****ing ******ed to sensible people.

    You think he's done? I think he's got time to improve. He's just not good enough to beat Floyd.

    Corrales was 5'11 and a relentless puncher who can KO someone with one shot couldn't even get near Floyd the entire fight.

    Jesus Chavez whom he fought toe to toe. Floyd just countered Jesus in the pocket at will.

    Oscar De la Hoya with a tiny ring and outweights FLoyd by 15lbs cornered floyd on the ropes a lot of the time during the match couldn't break through Floyd's defense and neither can Cotto.

    Floyd fought Cotto toe to toe in a lot of parts of their match and he was able to deflect majority of the blows.

    Hatton whose whole game plan was to pin his opponent down and hold and hit couldn't get anything significant on Floyd.

    And all of a sudden Floyd will fold under pressure against Angulo was is not even a big JMW.

    Angulo is exciting but he is not even on the level of any of the boxers i have listed above. and his chin is quite avg. And if a 160 Oscar who is just as big if not bigger than Current Angulo can't do it. How can Angulo beat floyd?

    Holy ****, I know a lot of people dislike Floyd, but to come up with threads like this just takes it to another level. I think some clown earlier in the thread said Floyd wanted no parts of Margarito. LOL. Hatred breeds stupidity for sure.....

    Floyd, the man you love retired like a straight ***** ass ***** when Margarito was hard on the scene and lost HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF REVENUE.

    If that's not a ***** move, what is it?

    Would you have retired like a straight ***** ass ***** and lose, HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF REVENUE?

    Well, if Angulo has a chin as like Julio Caesar Chavez, then you would have a better argument.

    I believe he's done as in Elite status or the pursuit there of. I was astonished at how slow he was the other night...when you combine that with his stamina issues and cracked chin, this has no hope of ending well.

    Hundreds of Millions of dollars against Margo? Have you gone troll to mental in the past few days? Pac vs Floyd is estimated 100 million and you think Floyd and Margo can do those numbers.

    Serioously go get ur head checked.

    PBF doesn't have to use the type of movement he did against Baldo to beat a plodder like Angulo. PBF can use educated footwork to dictate distance to get off on a guy who's there to be hit like Angulo. Angulo doesn't have the ring IQ to match wits with PBF. He simply doesn't, the guy is limited as hell. He doesn't stand a chance in a boxing match with PBF. Angulo doesn't apply educated pressure he follows people around looking to eat shots. He's tailormade for PBF and wouldn't win a round and it's no wonder why your opinion is in the minority. The comparisons you made with other boxers like Ward and Chisora regrading size is also ridiculous your talking about guys who are 3 weight classes apart. Angulo isn't going to outweigh PBF by 40 or more pounds on fight night so just stop it.
