    I think he can give PBF a tough fight especially with Manny Steward in his corner...

    slow down buddy. it's one thing to say no he cant win. it's a whole other story to say it would be a short fight b/c the FACT is floyd can't knock ANY of the top 5 welters out. that incluudes

    cotto, mosley, williams, cintron, margarito.

    the reason he cant is b/c he would be too cautios against Cotto, mosley, and kermit's power.

    i dont think he would be able to get inside with enough pop to put paul away.

    i suppose of all of them, he may be able to TKO antonio, but it definitely wouldnt be a KO for the 10 count.

    He cant beat him in theory but in the DREAM WORLD. He owns Floyd. I mean a guy like Cintron pretty much is one dimensional and has a vicious right hand. He is dangerous if you dont know how to handle a dangerous guy. Floyd would make him look like an amateur and floyd wont be there on the tail end of his fist. To much ability for Cintron. Cintron against Cotto. I dont know about that one..lol Either way somebody is getting knocked out.

    WTF LOL...Seriously man did I just read that? No way in hell Floyd knocks out Kermit Cintron.. Obviously they are in a different galaxy as far as talent...But guess what...Cintron is in another galaxy as far as punching power so obviously he'd always have that punchers chance...but realistically Floyd is a defensive master and would never get touched so obviously Floyd would win a UNANIMOUS DECISION......short fight???....:patsch

    Trust me Floyd Mayweather's cautiousness first mentality will be his downfall and he will eventually drop his 0 with a decision loss. If his punch out put continues to drop then he could be in for it with high volume punches like Cotto or Williams. Honestly it won't really matter if Floyd lands 8-10 clean punches a round when hes getting battered all over his body (shoulders,arms,body,head) by 100 punches a round. The judges will eventually score a fight against Floyd because they will favor the output and aggression from the other fighter. I mean look at the Oscar/Floyd fight...Those judges scored that fight way to close..Roth 115-113... And then the other judge on crack had it 113-115 for oscar..Which is bull**** we knew Oscars Famous Fake Flurries weren't doing **** in the first place.
    But as soon as 1 fighter gets a little more effective than DLH was...and if Floyd doesn't pick up the pace with his punches..He will lose the rounds..and this is basically how I see him losing. I honestly see Floyd losing a unanimous decision before he ever gets knocked out.

    Right now?? I give him the same odds of hitting the Powerball which is around 200 mil these days around here. Floyd would out box him to a unanimous decision.

    BUT?? Cintron does have a belt and Manny Steward working with him. Cintron showed some noticeable improvement in the skills in his last outing. He needs a couple more fights, more improvement, and would need a win over a guy like P. Williams to earn a legitimate shot at even proposing the fight.

    I'm a guy who believes that beating the other champs or unifying, if the orgs play ball without stripping, is the achievement to be strived towards for a fighter. If Cintron were able to add the BO belt to go with his IBF belt, he is then a player in the Championship picture and could then realistically call out Floyd and have relevance. If, he could refine his skills to the point where he can beat a guy like Williams?? Then, I would give him a much better chance of beating Floyd. He has won 26 of 28 fights by KO and has height and reach over Floyd, those are traits in his favor. The question is can he put it all to the proper use?? I havent seen that version of Cintron, YET!!!

    He would have to catch him early with a big right/left combination and follow up, which isn't impossible (because anything can happen in boxing) but highly unlikely.

    Right now he has to get lucky...he's not in the same league as PBF.

    MAybe a year or so I can be proved otherwise...
