    Who wins the reason i put it at 140 as i believe This is Floyds best weight i believe the 135 Duran beats Floyd in a close UD tho it could go either way given Robertos trouble with Slicksters how would it pan out at 140?

    Duran by KO in less than 8! & then Mayweather retires to the Hollywood Squares circuit!

    Duran TKO.

    Btw Floyd's best weight was 130, he got worse as he moved up in weights.

    Roberto Duran is the last guy Mayweather would want to fight if he wanted that record to stay pristine. Roberto Duran took Leonard to school when he was old!

    Duran on points.

    Duran could keep up with Mayweather with his speed and his aggression and boxing ability would keep Mayweather on the defensive.

    Plus i believe that Duran would also hold his own at range where most people might think that Mayweather would be most effective.

    Ol' Stone Hands.

    @ 140 I think it would be a KO, probably mid-late.
