    In today's boxing Mayweather.
    In other time period Jake would stop maul then stop Mayweather.

    mayweathers toughest fights were against pressure aggressive fights. guys like maidana and castillo are nothing like lamotta. Lamotta too big too strong. TKO's floyd or a 12 round beatdown and makes floyd **** blood and have broken ribs.

    Who's going to tie Floyd up and throw him in with the raging bull? That's what it would take to get him in the ring with Jake

    This is not really worth discussing. when has mayweather fought natural middleweights?

    I agree, Lamotta would be to physical for the natural jr.light Mayweather Jr. Once Lamotta realized Mayweather couldn't hurt him at all he'd keep the aggressiveness and dirty tactics on all night. He may even get a late stoppage. If Miduana or Castillo and Baldimir gave Mayweather hell.... Imagine what the natural Middleweight Lamotta could do. Lamotta would keep Mayweather on defense mode. He'd push him into the ropes , elbows head butts, low blows, holding and hitting,, all those moves would come into play from Lamotta. He'd eventually get to Mayweather just like he got too R.Robinson. Unlike Robinson though Mayweather may not survive to the final bell. If he does, he loses the dec.

    No the difference is mobility, power and natural size...May is far too immobile to fight a body punching iron chinned bigger swarmer like Jake....SRR was a mover and LaMotta threw alot of punches and better yet anyone that can hold his own jabbing with SRR outabs PBF the strength of Jake and high volume punching is too much
