    I think Duran beats Pac too. But both Floyd and Pac could pull it off. Moreso Floyd because Pacquiao will take a lot more damage.

    Benitez beating Mayweather? You got to be kidding me. Mayweather is far superior than Benitez in every aspect

    Duran would run him out of the press conference, much less out of the ring!

    Floyd cried when MM bit him! What would he do after the first thumb in the eye from Roberto ? ROFL Duran would beat him easily and I mean BEAT. Jr would not fight again.

    :patsch

    Mayweather has shamelessly ducked lesser fighters, there's no way in hell he'd ever get in with someone like Duran much less "easily outbox" him.

    What respects?

    May 23, 1981, at age 22, he became the youngest three-time world champion in boxing history by knocking out WBC World Super Welterweight Champion Maurice Hope in twelve rounds in Las Vegas. The knockout was named one of the knockouts of the year.


    On December 3, 1982, at the Carnival of Champions in New Orleans, Benitez lost the belt to another boxing legend, Thomas Hearns, by a fifteen-round majority decision

    And Mayweather?


    Bottom line is Mayweather is basically Benitez less the power and even the most diehard Mayweather fan doesn't think he would go the distance with Hearns.

    Duran would brutalize Mayweather, especially at 135. All you have to do is watch a couple of Duran fights and it would be obvious to most people.

    Mayweather wouldn't even fight Pac in his prime, and Pac doesn't have the skillset, the chin or the defense of Duran.

    135-Duran
    147-Duran
    154- Pickem 50-50 fight, possibly give Floyd benefit of doubt, but even this watered down version may beat Floyd.
    160-Duran
