    Can't think of 10. He's that good but not as good as his fans think he is.

    Thomas Hearns: Worst possible matchup that could be made for Floyd

    Sugar Ray Leonard: Faster, Stronger, Bigger with similar IQ and who could actual out psyce Floyd

    Young DLH: Younger DLH don't stop jabbing with his left, his dominant hand.

    Pernell Whitaker: He would out Floyd Floyd.

    Marvin Hagler: Had he exist today, he would be able to make 154 as a career middleweight who weighed in at fight time. Floyd would be deathly afraid and probably wouldn't fight him.

    Roberto Duran: Would headbut Floyd and prob. go to hug him and two piece Floyd before he gets off.

    Vernon Forrest: Bad matchup for Floyd.

    Winky Wright: There was a reason Floyd didn't want to back his claim to fight Winky at the time.

    Cant fault this list here - except maybe Hearns who was hittable and vunerable throughout his career ,

    also what about Aaron Pryor ? often underated here on ESB - from 79 to 82 he was right up there with the leonards and Hearns of the era .

    Hearns is THE worst possible opponent for Floyd. Floyd doesn't have to power to trouble him.

    Hearns was only hurt by guys who went after him and had the conjones and chin to do so. Leonard realized that to win he was going to have to brawl with Tommy and take his shots. Floyd cannot do that because it means he will get hit and show what his chin is really made of.
    Hearns right hand >>>>>>>>>>Mosley's right hand.

    I forgot about Pryor. Another guy who Floyd wouldn't be able to mentally trouble. I think Floyd would be terrified of someone like him.
