    Kirkland is the safe bet.
    (But the sky would fall first, with the amount of flying pig's as Hell freezes over)

    Why shouldn't williams be listed? They both fought at 147 at the same time during Floyd's reign and if Floyd were to come back Williams could make the weight again. The 2 of them would arguable be the 2 best welterweights and a fight between them would be logical

    I know it would be fun to see PBF in so many fantasy fights, but the only fight he wants is the winner of Hatton and Pac. Pbf is just that type of guy. If Pbf was the only astronaut we ever had, we still would not have reached the moon yet. That is how lack of guts this guy has. He will never take a big risk.

    He really wants Pac, and that is just all his unretiring will be. Sad.

    Williams makes sense also. he is fighting at higher weights temporarily but could easily make 147 again if he wanted to. **** just a year ago these 2 were both title holders at 147 and lots of people wanted to see the fight.

    Williams or Mosley... but boxing depends on the situation, training, condition & lots of aspects... & most importantly.. if it's God's will no one can stop him from winning but if not.. as what other people are saying.. "maybe lady luck is not on your side this time".. :)

    No.

    I would slightly favour him over Mosley.

    (Prime Mosley beats prime Floyd)



    He would lose to all of the others.



    One or two of them might kill him.

    Floyd would just get clubbed to death by AA or KP. They'd walk straight through him and pound the **** out of him.

    He can beat Paul Williams and Kirkland, but that's it on the list.

    I think it will be like this, starting from the most difficult

    Pavlik
    Kirkland
    Abraham
    Williams
    Mosley

    Pavlik and Abrahams - no chance

    But if he was looking to match Oscar and become a 6 weight world champion. What about Felix Sturm?????????
