    We all know De Jesus beat Duran in the 1st fight. Who wins this matchup?

    Floyd. But it's tougher than you'd think. DeJesus was a really savvy guy when he was on it.

    Floyd wins. DeJesus is competitive, but I don't quite think he has the style and tools to pull off the win.

    He's a bit too small for one, and not rangy enough. DeJesus was a counter puncher, and a VERY GOOD one, but the problem is he's not quick enough to play that game with Floyd. DeJesus had good quickness, but not the exceptional speed it would take to win a countering game with Floyd.

    Like I said, DeJesus is competitive, but Floyd wins a clear decision.

    Floyd wins this.

    He's too quick and rangy which means De Jesus will have to play the role of hapless attacking fighter.

    I think it will look exactly the same as Mayweather vs Marquez.

    de Jesús beat the crap out of Duran with his jabs. I think he had an ATG jab. Still Floyd 115-113 in a competitive fight.

    This is close, who did Floyd beat at 135 as good as Dejesus?

    Floyd all day long. Floyd is one of the best fighters to grace the ring, ever. I don’t think there is a name out there that could of beat him. Think what you like of Floyd, he may not be everyone’s cup of tea, his boxing ability was second to none.

    DeJesus would pummel Mayweather. Pummel him into submission. Floyd couldn't deal with the handspeed. Lefthook kinda sharp.

    Duran, Pryor, Ray Leonard and a guy named Corrales.

    Floyd by close decision, like 7-5. Don't think he would want to go 15.

    Floyd by clear decision. De Jesus would probably give Floyd some close rounds, but I don't see him winning many.
