    What a disgrace, Mago Abdusalamov fought toe to toe look what happened, fighters should be encouraged to fight like Floyd or Rigo. What a disgrace, people who say this usually have never boxed.

    I dont agree with The way you're discrediting an entire generation of fighters but, Duran does not have ATG defense. Thats thrown around so much these days. That video proves he has good head movement and awareness. He is far from being a defensive mastermind to the likes of Floyd, Whitaker and Benitez.

    I think Floyd handles Duran just as easily as Canelo and the only one of the Fab Four who beats Floyd or at least gives him a tough fight is Hearns. I just dont think Floyd would be able to keep Hearns off of him.

    You saw the "No Mas" fight Im sure. Floyd has even more movement than that, and places punches better than that. Duran would want no part of Floyd after 4 rounds.

    In my opinion. anyway.

    I think Floyd is top 11 ATG, and I think he's the most complete fighter of all time. No holes in his game, and theres not too many fighters you can say that about. Greatness, and Best are not the same anyway, but I think Floyd is the most skilled, and the best ever.

    I disagree. Floyd has proven he can handle speed and power. His reflexes look superb, period. Alas, this argument is moot as there is no way we will ever find out.

    :rofl I'm not discrediting a whole generation of fighters. I'm pointing out there was greater eras with more great fighters. Floyd has fought fighters no where near the level of Duran, Leonard, Hearns, Robinson, Hagler, Benitez etc. I cant asses his ability if its not been tested by a great fighter in their prime. He's no where near top 11 and he's also no where near the best ever. The best ever does not go close with a past prime ODH when he's in his prime.

    Duran is considered by many to have an ATG defence. If you cant see that in the video then i dont know what to say to you. Mayweather Snr himself said there's only two fighters in history he thinks might have beat Floyd and that's Duran and Robinson.

    Spot on with you Hearns comment :good

    You think Floyd would handle Duran as easily as Alvarez!?! You do realise Duran is levels above that flat footed, overrated Mexican. There is no way Mayweather does what he done to Alvarez on any version of Duran. You trolling?

    Sorry but there's too many things I disagree with. I'd be treading old ground. Iv'e left my thoughts on here. I'll leave it at that.

    Yet he's the most riches guy in the sport, take less punishemnt then anyone, and don't have to worry about being punch drunk later on in his life. If that is the definition of a coward please tell me where do I sign. The fact is, most fighters can't do what he does and wish that they could. When you have other fighters amazed by your skills, and try to imitate what you do. why on earth would he change anything about his style?

    Lets be real, he had problems with Zab before Zab gassed, and Sugar would have destroyed Zab. Its one thing being a 300 horespower car racing other 150-200 HP racers. But put that 300 up against a 4 or 500HP with NOS and watch what happens. :D

    You realize when making this comparasion Leonard started at WW and moved to SMW/LHW while Mayweather started at SFW and moved to WW/JMW I'm pretty sure most guys would "struggle" a little bit fighting a guy one fight removed from being Undisputed Champ in there forth weight class.

    Bottom line is Floyd cannot fight PERIOD!!!!!!
    No one denies he has incredible boxing talents but its a shame they were wasted on a cowardly woman beating street punk.

    Being real, ahh the colloquial catch all for the over opinionated. I disagree with your position. Zab is arguably one of the fastest in history, and he won 3 of the first 4 rounds against Mayweather. Last I checked, it takes 7 roumds or more to win a fight.
