Mayweather struggles against physical boxers.

I have to assume that you never saw a young Floyd fight, do you know that at 130 lbs a young Floyd was already considered #1 P4P, the best fighter in the sport? A title he still holds 15 years later?

 

Vs which version of Floyd?

 

Floyd would have dominated Pacquiao at 130.

 

HE DOMINATES FAB 4 @ 147 (Duran, Leonard, Hearns)!!! and SRR!!!

 

Pryor had speed, godly stamina elite power with a granite jaw.

He would have whooped floyd. Pryor is the boss at 140. Duran didn't want it. Nor did leonard. Scared of the hawk.

 

Not one punch KO power, he would get his stoppages by accumulation.

 

This **** is so overblown.

Judah didnt trouble Floyd. Floyd didnt do much for the first 2 rounds as he knew Judah would come out aggressive.

Round 3 was 50/50, round 4 onwards, Floyd beat the **** out of Judah.

The only 2 rounds where Judah 'troubled' Floyd was where Floyd was figuring out his opponent (the first 2 rounds).

 

Hahaha

Well then Ali and Robinson and Louis and Leonard really suck then, huh? Doesn't every fighter who has ever had a punch landed on them, I suppose...

 

Henry Armstrong lost a few rounds... SUCKS.

Ray Robinson lost a few rounds and didn't KO everyone... SUCKS.

Muhammad Ali showed several weaknesses and ran and held all day... SUCKS.

Lennox Lewis got KTFO a couple times... SUCKS AND GETS KTFO BY EVERYONE.


What a horribly stupid thread. Actually does the opposite of intent and shows greatness. You can list like three or four fights where he struggled or got buzzed. Congrats.

 

#48 has never been the better athlete than PBF in anything. WTF are you talking about? But then again you're the same guy who thinks EM walks on water. You don't know anything about boxing or athletics. At 130 PBF had #48 beat in all athletic departments.:deal Handspeed, reflexes, and Footspeed. He would have shut #48 out and embarrassed him worse than he did at 147. PBF is the GOAT at 130.

 

I think people forget just how good Floyd was at 130.

He would have embarrassed Pacquiao at that weight. It wouldn't even be competitive.

 

I think you can make an argument for prime Pac...

I always thought Floyd had better handspeed on single shots, they're lightning fast but then he can't really throw in combos the way Pac does.

Footspeed, is again hard to compare because Floyd is far more reserved whereas Pac used to zip around all over the ring so on the eye it looked like Pac had more footspeed but can't really say for sure.

Stamina wise though, I think Pac had better, I mean yes Floyd does go 12 rounds without breaking a sweat but he usually fights at his own pace which is usually not too fast whereas Pac fought at ridiculous workrate non stop.

Reflexes of course go to Floyd, not even competition here.

 

As of what the better athlete? If that's what you're saying then I disagree. PBF was and is the better athlete and if they fought at 130 just like when they fought at 147 it would show. PBF looked a step faster than #48 in handspeed reflexes and footspeed.
