    I'm sure people have just seen other people post forest once and jumped on the band wagon. Winky has the best chance to beat floss and would probably go in as a favourite but I just don't see how Forest who has no inside game whatsoever would beat floyd. Floyd would slip his jab all night. It would be boring as he'll but a fairly comfortable UD for Floyd

    After the show he put on at 154 I think he'd lose to the fresher more focused Oscar at 147 and 154, I also think he'd lose to Winky both times at 154. I think he probably splits a win and loss with Forrest.

    Tough to say Floyd definitely beats or gets beat by some of these guys

    the obvious tough fights on there are Oscar 2X Forrest 2X Winky 2X Vargas 2 X Cotto and Manny Pac

    I think Floyd beats Cotto for sure and favor him heavily vs Pac

    I think if he negates Forrest and Winky's jab he can beat them,

    Oscar of then would be very tough

    Floyd Oscar would happen once at 147 where Mayweather is better than he was at 154. Shane was able to use Mayweather style punches on Oscar: jab to the pit, flickers, lead rights then clinch, leaping hooks, etc. Oscar gets outflanked by the check hook as Mayweather makes his escape through Oscar's right side, a punch Oscar isn't great at.

    Mr. Oscar doesn't have the consistency and focus to beat a Mayweather.

    imagine Floyd on the same kind of steroids Shane got to use:hey

    DLH was able to fight a much more controlled fight in the rematch though, and despite it being very competitive, I thought DLH deserved the nod. When he chooses to box behind his offensive aggression, DLH has a very tight guard and accurate punches. Also I do believe in the first fight that he wanted to finally prove to the Mexican people he was not afraid to go to war.

    You're right about Mosley having success with similar lead punches, but I also think that's because he was able to mix it up and keep DLH guessing with a more varied offense and rushes of aggression very often. If he were strictly in boxer mode, I think he would have eaten many more shots. Exchanging let him stand his ground.

    As far as his right hand goes...

    Mayweather barely looked any different at 154 in terms of his own style. Oscar may have had the size advantage, but at 147 he more than makes up for it with his variety in skill and offensive willingness to engage.

    I voted for 2 but probably 3.

    Twice to Winky no doubt about it.

    And I think out of forest twice and DLH twice there would be a loss there.

    I mention the fight being at 147 because Floyd beats him decisively enough to not warrant a rematch at 154. Oscar was only 152 on fight night against Shane. That kind of size advantage wouldn't be as troublesome for Mayweather.
