    If the manny fight can't happen,this is the fight I wanna see.Who do you guys think would win?It could potentially be a rough fight for mayweather.But I think he could fight kirkland in the pocket and take advantage of him.

    He would box circles around Kirkland. Kirkland is only good against the right styles (i.e. someone who will bang out with him). He would test Floyd's conditioning tho because he would keep coming.

    Mayweather not only beats Kirkland, but he stops him too.

    I'd be rooting for Kirkland but he wouldn't land 2 clean punches all night!

    Kirkland is too physically imposing for Floyd, I get the "Floyd boxes circles around him", but at 154 Kirkland is fighting probably 163-165, just too big. He wouldn't necessarily hit him up top initially, but Floyd will take some body shots and Kirkland is a good body puncher. I think it's a horrible match up for Floyd, in my opinion. It makes no sense that someone as sloppy and undisciplined as Kirkland could **** with PBF, but I just think he would rush him and all it takes is one shot to change the fight. I don't think Floyd could avoid him for 12 rounds, and if he can take flush shots from Angulo, I assume he could take shots from Floyd. Again, I understand the logic, and in normal circumstances I would 100% agree, but I just don't see him keeping Kirkland at bay for the entire fight.

    God damn your slow.

    A pure Boxer always out classes a brute Slugger!

    Martinez or Floyd would beat Angulo and Kirkland 120-108! Its common knowledge.

    Kirkland is too big for Floyd, he'd chase him down and tear Floyd up. Mayweather never wanted to fight prime Margarito because he was concerned that he wouldn't be able to keep him off. Imagine Kirkland pounding on Floyd's arms.

    Kirkland is to damn reckless and would get the **** beat out of him. It would still be fun watch.

    To the thread-starter, you may now go play in traffic. Preferably blind-folded.
