    Maidana beat him. Castillo beat him.
    Pacquiao would have a good chance of beating him.
    Reckon Porter and Khan might also have a chance.

    Duran a close decision, lmao.

    The Duran of Montreal by brutal taking apart in 4 or 5. He'd do what Maidana did with ATG skill and Mayweather would be toast.

    Delusional *****s.

    Mayweather and Meldrick Taylor don't fight that much alike other than being speedy Olympic medalists.

    Taylor threw punches in bunches, often arm punches, but sometimes with more leverage, and went to the body more. He wasn't the defensive fighter Mayweather is.

    Taylor was beating Chavez in large part because of his insane workrate. That smug Ferdie Pacheco was saying "Whitaker is fighting just like Meldrick Taylor". No. Whitaker was using movement and angles, Taylor spent a lot of the fight at close to mid range, taking hard shots but outworking and outlanding Chavez.

    Mayweather doesn't fight like that. I wouldn't favor him over Chavez...well at least not over the peak Chavez, at 135, who fought Rosario.
