    He got punched. Took 2 steps back. And came forward again. Which he tends to do against South paws, walk them down. Same thing with Judah, he was coming in, got caught and his glove grazed the canvas, it was so quick the ref didnt see it.

    Castillo is the only fighter I've seen have sustained success against Mayweather. He broke Mayweathers ribs and landed several thunderous body shots. But this wasnt a 100% healthy Mayweather. Torn rotator cuff and was complaining about pain in his shoulder after the first round.

    Mayweather got caught with a left hook from Oscar while bouncing off the ropes clean. So when SRR does break down floyds defense he still has a chin to back it up. So just saying Floyd gets KO'd by SRR for no reason but SRR is SRR is not thinking too much in depth.

    no I said he would make duran say no mas like leonard did meaning trying to hit floyd would be just as frustrating as trying to hit leonard I didn't mean he would beat him into to submission **** head

    No reason to not believe he has an excellent chin.

    OHHHH ok now you're starting to make sense , NOOOOT. Moron.

    Saying "no mas" is quitting, regardless if you quit out of punishment or out of frustration. That's what "no mas" means : NO MORE.

    Seriously get out of this forum kid. Duran would blast Floyd in any weight. Never comprare PBF to SRR, SRL, Duran, Hearns.

    Duran blast Floyd at 135? :rofl Yeah if it was Floyds first fight at 135 and he had a torn rotator cuff. Only way Duran ever blasts Floyd.

    Prime Duran beats Floyd at any weight chief. PBF is not in this league man. Get over it.

    Sorry Floyd has an excellent shot at Duran at any weight. I'd favor Duran at 135, at 140 and 147 I'd favor Floyd. But get blasted? :rofl Please. Durans hype above 135 comes because he beat Leonard at 147. If Leonard fights right like he did the 2nd and 3rd time, he wins 10 out of 10 times. The only fighter who might stylistically blast floyd is Hearns. Floyd wins 3-4 rounds off of Leonard. He'd be atleast as competitive as Benitez was.

    A guy that was 72-1 in his prime is hyped? I have never said PBF is not a good fighter but who has he faced of Duran's stature? No one. And how can you say Duran was hyped and Floyd not? Who has Floyd beaten at 147 that was a true elite welter?

    When I said blast I didn't mean KTFO, I take the word back, I should have said beat. I honestly believe Duran would beat him at any weight, but I guess we agree to disagree then bro.

    :rofl @ Floyd over Duran at 147. Duran by late rounds stoppage after giving Floyd a beating, and this is not a pick on a whim or simply a retaliating post. Floyd has nowhere near the footspeed or movement at 147 to keep Duran off him, and even if he did, we're talking Duran at his best (of the first Leonard and Palomino fights), not a weight-drained, out of shape, unprepared version. Floyd would go to the ropes looking to counter like he did against the likes of Ricky Hatton or old De La Hoya. Difference is, he'd be in there with Duran and get his ass torn up.

    130 was not Floyd's prime. He was green as hell. It was however Arguello's best weight. I've had this PBF/AA debate many times, and for me it always comes down to the length of the fight. Over 12; PBF UD. Over 15 Alexis finds a way. We are talking about Alexis freaking Arguello here; findng a way is what he did!

    Great Post. These kids here just don't realize how good a prime Duran was. I take nothing away from PBF but to compare him prime 4 prime to guys like Duran, SRL, SRR, and hearns is truly ridiculous.

    Getting caught on the ropes by Duran was NEVER a good idea.

    Oh ok...Which fights were they? I had a quick glance at the punchstats and he always had very low numbers, which is his style but who is to say how he would fair being pushed hard by an ATG in a 15 rounder..He shut up shop to many times in his career over the 12.

    Wow, the greatest fighter of 8 years... and that's very disputable, as Pacquiao is probably ahead of him, against the greatest fighter of all-time.

    Not only that, but Robinson was at his best at 147, Mayweather was at his best well below 147. Robinson is one of two guys who I'd bet on laying Floyd out.
