    Winky Right would fight at 147.
    Vernon forrest`s physical advantage and style would be a big problem for PBF.
    Do remember prime Mosley vs Forrest ?

    Forrest could beat Mayweather if he is in top shape. I doubt he is at the age of 37 but who knows. He was in convincing fashion against Baldomir.

    Wright would beat him but it is not fair to match May against middleweight fighters... PBF came from super featherweight.

    Cotto could do it, he's getting better, and Floyd is slowing ever so slightly. First he's got to get by Marg., who could also give Floyd some trouble, but I think Floyd's speed and ring savy would see him through

    There's only one man right now who I give the best chance and that's Miguel Cotto. DLH has a good chance too in this rematch considering the first fight was very close.

    Pacquiao is really not far off and could dethrone (de-thrown :lol:) him as p4p king in less than a year

    Anyone else agree with me that Money's skills are on the decline?
    I mean right now he is still the fastest WW in the world no question about it.
    but his combo's & movement is defo not what it once was. Mayweather is getting hit with alot more shot's than he ever has before (Hatton was tagging him) and he tends to fall in love with the "Pot shots" way too much.
    and fighting off the ropes throwing only one punch at a time is not May @ his best.

    That being said, Mayweather still is so skilled and fast that it will still take alot to defeat him.
    but to say he's unbeatable right now, is kinda being unrealistic considering what we have seen or haven't seen of him in his recent fights.

    Seems like it all points to one guy, Miguel Cotto, which I too believe he is the only one right now capable of knocking off Mayweather.. Cotto has improved each fight.. His skills are unbelievable and next to Mayweather's, his recovery is amazing, and his power is wow.. He can figure out fighters in a match, he can switch up his style, and he's always confident.. He always carries that straight face, even after getting rocked.. Cotto has the tools to beat Mayweather and I think he has a good damn chance at doing it too.. Cotto is fighting all the top contenders right now and is fighting a good damn fighter in Margo in July.. Mayweather with this layoff ****, not fighting anyone except for maybe a DLH rematch, won't be gaining anything except for maybe a little rustiness.. If Cotto keeps doing what he's doing, than he will beat Mayweather in 2009.. Not can, but will.. Cotto is the man right now.

    The only thing Margarito will slaughter is the air he's hitting.

    Vernon Forrest isn't even the best 154lb fighter

    Floyd's time is up, he is going to lose within the next 1-2 years
