floyd maywether jr vs carmen basillio welters.

Not a busy fight if Mayweather has a say in it.

 

I think Basilio would grind Floyd up. If he hated Robinson's guts for his huge ego and arrogance, he'd hate Floyd just as much, which not a good thing at all for Floyd. Basilio could easily walk through anything Mayweather could throw, but the same cannot be said about Mayweather. I think Basilio would push Floyd far out of his comfort zone and grind him up to win a decision. Floyd's superb defence keeps the fight going.

 

basilio too slow to land enough convincingly on mayweather. i see mayweather getting a decision.

 

If he won't fight Pacman...there's no way he fights a prime Basilio!!!

 

Much slower than Castillo ?

 

What does Castillo have to do with this... besides absolutely nothing?

 

Because ...Castillo beat Mayweather in my scorecard.....Why not Basilio ?

 

They fought in 2002 at 135. The Floyd who fought Mosley is a very different fighter. I just don't see how the Castillo fight is relevant at all, in the same way Basilios multiple losses and draws are irrelevant. If I remember correctly he lost to and drew with a guy who lost twice as many fights as he had won.

 

I think stylistically he (Basilio) has the advantage.....

 

Floyd takes a close decision that can be argued either way . Floyd would land cleaner shots.

 

He sure beat the faster Robinson,

Not to mention He gave Kid Galvian life and death in there fight. Yes I felt Basilio won that one.
