    The prime lightening quick FP vs the legend that is Greb.

    Does Floyds style give him an edge?

    I think Patterson would be too powerfull. Size and speed is a nasty combo to fight.

    Greb by overwelming stoppage. Glassjawwould feel like a box of gloves fell on him. Greb inside 10. Face it the overrated bum DAMATO would not let Greb near Floyd.

    Greb would walk thru him. If Maidana's awkwardness and weird angles was effecting Flo then Greb's would positively unhinge his game plan. I see a stoppage within 10.

    I assumed he'd misread the name I was just letting him know. If he was joking then he got me good

    No way does Floyd go anywhere close to 10.

    Poor comparison. Floyd fought from 130 - 154

    Floyd would also lose to Tunney, and Dempsey.

    Well, he did beat Joe Frazier, albeit in his final fight.
