    Floyd Mayweather weighing in at 147 could beat paper champ Berrio at 168, imo.

    I think tommy hearns at 147/154 could beat or stop world class lt heavies or ordinary cruisers....
    I think duran at 135/140 could beat world class lt middles and middles,and ordinary supermiddles...
    Duran was once asked when he was lightweight champion how he would fare in a streetfight with the then world heavyweight champion muhammed ali,many years later when challenging barkley for his successful world middleweight title bid he was asked the same question with regard to george foreman,his reply both times? 'I kick the **** out of him'!!!!!

    Roy Jones (160) UD Nicolai Valuev (320)

    Easy for Jones. Valuev would be far too slow to lay a glove on him in his prime at 160.

    Floyd Mayweather once said that weight doesn't win fights. If weight did win fights, Valuev would have beaten Chagaev easily.

    Joe Choynski:

    "We both did a lot of dancing...Johnson was awfully long and reachy and I remember... that I had a hard time getting my punches to his face. When the third began I decided to take a chance. I felt if I lost the fight it would hurt my prestige and I couldn't afford that. I walked out with my guard high to tempt Johnson to lead for my ribs. He bit like a hungery bass at bait, and as he did I lashed out with all my weight for his jaw with my left hook which, pardon me for saying so, was the equal of any man's punch, bar none. It landed just below the temple."

    Johnson fell foward into Joe's arms, then slid down to the floor, face down. As the ref counted, Johnson rolled over to his back, but could not get up.

    The next thing anyone knew five Texas Rangers stormed the ring and took away Jack and Joe.

    I think Ivan Calderon could beat Valuev. He's quick enough and slippery enough, and I doubt that Valuev would be able to land much (if anything) punching at that much of a downward angle. If Valuev landed cleanly to the top of Iron Boy's head, then it would be lights out, but considering how slow Valuev is and how much he'd have to telegraph his punches just to touch a guy who's 5'1", I think Calderon could go 12 without a clean punch landing on him all night.
