    It's cute how you don't know who Kalambay is.

    Let's use Mayweather's resume against opponents over 5'10 at middleweight or even super welter as an example of how he would do against Barkley. Ah wait there were a whopping 0 opponents above 5'10 and only a single out of prime stiff at 5'10.

    Ok.. Maybe for height and reach discrepancy comparison we can do the next best thing..... Logan Paul is only half an inch to an inch taller than Barkley LOL. What did Mayweather do in the face of such a height and reach discrepancy against a nonboxer? Looked like a poverty mike Tyson imitation there with his constant dipping down on every Logan Paul movement lmaoo

    In contrast, you’re assuming a guy who lost to Rolly Polly Roberto and Kalambay would do well against Mayweather.

    Btw ellipses are three periods in the middle of a sentence and four periods to end a sentence.

    You know Floyd loses this kiddo. Trying to be contrarian with hot takes is yesterday's argument. Everyone has their limits. Floyd barely touched 154, and knew his.

    Well, if yo are a smart as you think, you should. And yes, he is an amazing boxer. BUT one with limits. One being his size. At 5'8", and his frame, 160 is not really suited for him. Who's the biggest guy Floyd's fought? Oscar at 5'10"? And at 154. Even Oscar was stunted at 160. So what success other ACTUAL MW's had vs Barkley doesn't mean Floyd can do the same, simply because of his skill level. Capiche?

    That's irrelevant. But...really? A Kov who looked bad before Canelo and had what, barely over a MONTH from that fight?? C'mon dude. Poor attempt here.
