    G.Hernadez, C.Hernadez Chico Chavez Manfreddy. He basically cleaned out the division and made it look easy his resume there is great.

    PBF has never weighed 160 on fight night for his career and you know it so just stop that.

    He doesn't look 10 lbs less though when you campare him to the Ortiz fight though does he?

    I'm don't know why Floyd would come in lighter when he is fighting a big welterweight such as Ortiz, unless he planned to use speed to his advantage and out box him but instead he was flat footed and going forward.

    Either way he didn't use his weight to beat Marquez but skill, I think it would be closer at a lower weight because Floyd would be less experianced and this could lead to more counter opportunities for Marquez.

    But style wise a Floyd has the bigger reach and better defence and this would allow for him to fight of the back foot whilst Marquez is the one who has to go forward and that isn't his style.

    Marquez and Floyd could fight at any weight and it would end the same as it did when they fought at Welter.

    Floyd was actually prime at 130 too. He was much quicker and had a decent bit of power too.

    I agree there that is why I would pick PBF as well.

    I think people jump the gun saying PBF is the GOAT at 130 because lets face it he did not face many or really any ATGs at that weight. I think Corrales is it and honestly I think he is a borderline HOF.

    By that comparison you could say Sven Ottke would be equal to RJJ since he never lost at 168 either.

    Yea Floyd by UD, but a much faster, stronger JMM. Floyd of course would be faster, stronger in this weight too, I think he'd floor JMM 2-3 times throughout the fight, but JMM would give him a scare or two JMM actually had some good reflexes and Floyd wouldn't fight so defensively either as he does recently.

    Exactly. Look at those names. The best one is Chico.
    This is similar to Wlads resume right now and I know people rag on Wlad because his era is not strong so they say he would not compare to the other great HWs.

    Fact of the matter is that 130 has always been a division with good talent. To say that a guy who fought G.Hernadez, C.Hernadez Chico Chavez Manfreddy is the GOAT at the weight is really just an insult to the other greats at the weight.

    Ottke is average at best and no rational argument could be made that he's better than RJJ. Jones' win over Toney at 168 is light years better than Ottke's whole career. You also have to look at the fighter, RJJ at 168 was a stylistic nightmare to face much like PBF at 130 that's why I say RJJ is the GOAT at 168 and PBF is the GOAT at 130.

    Beats all 3 at 130 IMO. All three have problems with speed and movement especially Arguello and Duran.

    Floyd's height and reach is too much an advantage for Floyd. I can see if JMM is the aggressive type which he's not. I can't see JMM pressing Floyd, it's not his style. Only a pressure fighter with a good chin and good speed would have a chance against Floyd.

    Even easier win for mayweather. Mayweather will beat marquez at any point in his career. Mayweathers style is perfect for marquez. Marquez didn't do **** to mayweather. Not even a scratch.

    And who's to say Mayweather doesn't have a problem when these two land flush, especially Duran. He'd corner him and beat the living hell out of him with bodyshots. You're delussional to think otherwise.
