    I love setting up scenarios of all time greats. Imagine if we could have all the all time greats fight through time machine. I would pay 150 dollars for each pay per view with a smile on my face.

    Hearns gets way to much credit at Welterweight

    Mayweather would have to get past the jab and weather an early storm to win it. He has the talent to do it, but would he still be standing? Hard fight to pick because Floyd has always found a way to win. I vote Hearns but not with great conviction!

    Hearns is the worst possibly matchup for Floyd at 147.

    His comination of height, reach, power, and jab are all wrong for Floyd.

    As great is Floyd is, and he is an all-time great, he has never been put in a postion to show if he can survive what SRL had to go through to beat Hearns in their first fight. And he would have to go through it to win.

    Hitman via TKO in the 6th.

    Floyd never wins a round.

    Shane Mosley and Zab Judah were able to rock and drop Mayweather at 147

    Hearns on the other hand well . . . . . . you only need to watch the Roberto Duran fight to see what Hearns would do to floyd

    Hearns by KO if Floyd tries to fight.

    Hearns by decision if Floyd decides to just survive.

    Such a tough match up! Hearns was one of the greats, just pounding everyone. Mayweather is somewhat similar to SRL. SRL threw more combos but there very similar in style. Mayweather would have to get past the first couple of rounds to stand a chance. if he did that he would win by decision.

    Man i dont know. I Say Mayweather by decision but it s a huge toss up
