    only JUST beat a past prime DLH
    ducks a old school fighter whos obsessed with balance and technique,pacman
    the old 1-2 doesnt work against Pac
    Duran would kill Floyd

    pac can throw 50 different punches and never be off balance

    mayweather petty 1-1-1-2, 1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-2 , would be nothing for Pacman to overcome

    pac was humiliatingly knocked out by a guy Floyd toyed with, and in his own words said Floyd is the better fighter.

    come on programer, boxingmaster, the act is wearing thin now

    floyd proly woulda had sum losses if he were in a differ era.

    floyd wouldnt been able to dictate his career like he does now. no fighter could have done that back then. he gets to pick who he fights all the time back then they told u who to fight. n also back then fighters were much more active but as a business man he came around at the perfect time, and besides pac he does fight everyone out there but he does it wen the time is right an hes never fightin alot so hes always well rested

    It's asinine threads like this that rile up the Floyd nut huggers and put them on tilt.

    Floyd is probably a 50-50 fight with most ATG in his weight class. Neither side of the Floyd mob can seem to understand or accept this.

    This is really just speculation. For all we know he would be ducked like other great black boxers in their day

    I agree somewhat with what you're saying. Pacquiao will fight anyone as long as they agree to his terms and when they're at a low point. Floyd wouldn't have had as much success in the past because of the business part like you mentioned. He didn't start picking his opponents until 2007, he was undefeated and P4P #1 (I think) back then too. People say he retired to duck guys but they weren't going anywhere when he came back, and if he wanted to duck Pacquiao, he could've stayed retired.

    With that said, Mayweather in the 80s would definitely have a couple of losses.
