    Why wouldn't Floyd be favorited against a prime MAB?

    Well Floyd has never fought anybody the caliber of MAB.

    MAB beat peak Morales twice who was a much tougher opponent than anyone Floyd has ever faced.

    EM was a weight drainer who would be outboxed and exposed by PBF. PBF had too much lateral movement defense and speed for EM to deal with. PBF would outbox EM. How is EM going to beat PBF? Please answer me this question. PBF is an elite top 20 ATG EM and MAB aren't period. There's levels to this **** PBF gives both of them that work.

    Man please. PBF would embarrass any version of MAB you already know this and can't even give a realistic breakdown of this fight.

    Because EM already beat two prime ATG's. He's shown he can do it.

    Floyd never did.

    Floyd's best win at the lower weights was Diego Corrales.
    Floyd's best win at the higher weights is Ricky Hatton.

    Erik Morales' best wins are Prime Marco Antonio Barrera (ATG), and Prime Manny Pacquiao (ATG).

    And Floyd would win because, hey he's slick and black right? :lol:

    EM can't fight on the inside like JLC could. Not only that he wouldn't outweigh PBF by 15 pounds on fight night. He didn't go to the body like JLC. PBF would pick EM apart on the outside and counter him when he came in it actually would be funny to watch . EM get picked apart and schooled. I also would pick JLC to beat EM at 135.:deal

    When was the last time Floyd fought anybody with the precision of Morales? The answer is never.

    Morales was one of the most efficient and precise fighters ever. No wasted movement. Just complete accuracy.

    And his punches are thrown with power.

    That seems to be your method of choice. If the fighter you don't like has a better resume you just say "well H2H". Funny thing is you do it even when they never fought. It's like you've been convinced in your own mind that they beat them even though they haven't.

    Morales has beaten two ATG's at their best. Not in your mind or anybody else's mind. He's actually done it.

    Don't be so quick to dismiss.

    Jesus Christ when will it stop? When has EM ever fought anyone as good fast defensive or complete as PBF?:deal The answer is never.

    Manny was faster than PBF. If we're talking combos, footwork then prime Manny was faster with a higher workrate as well. And more power.

    Morales beat him.

    Morales' level of competition is whole other level.

    Erik Morales is also two levels below PBF that's just the way it is. The guy was done by 30 and went life and death with MAB and got KTFO by Pac and lost to Raheem he was also a cheat. PBF wouldn't need 3 fights with the likes of MAB or Pac.:deal Nor would he lose to guys like Raheem.

    You just said he was done by 30. Which he was. The question isn't can Floyd beat the declined Morales. Of course he can. It's can he beat Morales at his best?

    Raheem and the Pac losses were him as a faded fighter.

    When was the last time Floyd fought a great fighter in his prime?

    OSCAR DE LA HOYA
    SHANE MOSLEY
    MANNY PACQUIAO
    ERIK MORALES
    MARCO ANTONIO BARRERA
    JUAN MANUEL MARQUEZ
    BERNARD HOPKINS


    These great fighters have all fought a minimum of one great fighter in their prime...

    How many has Floyd fought?

    How can you say Floyd would win every fight he's matched against when he didn't give us enough fights against Top fighters to gauge him accurately?

    All we know is that he struggled with;

    Jose Luis Castillo
    Marcos Maidana
    Ricky Hatton
    Old Oscar De La Hoya
    Zab Judah
    and was rocked by Old Mosley, Corley, and an old, one armed already KTFO Pacquiao.
