    Floyd didn't fight many pure boxers in his career.

    Who were some pure boxers he could have fought? And how would he have done against them?

    Don't get me wrong, I don't think pure boxers would have beaten Floyd. You're not going to outbox Floyd. You're just not. I'm just saying that I don't think Floyd fought many pure boxers.

    Could see Cory Spinks pushing him close in a boring fight. Whilst perhaps not a pure boxer Vernon Forrest would be a tough fight for him too IMO.

    I never thought Floyd wanted to try Amir Khan when he was prime

    I think Spinks would have been interesting for Mayweather.

    I wish Mayweather would have fought Stevie Johnston and Joel Casamayor.
