    He dont have the power of leonard to keep duran off him. Duran was very craftyin the ring too. And mayweather cant brawl like leonard . Middle or late ko no doubt in my mind. Duran wins this. Cotto gave mayweather trouble so did castillo . Duran would destory him

    im exactly the same as you. he would outbox duran like leonard did in the rematch. it would be a close fight no doubt because well.. this is ****ing duran we are talking about..

    but your right about hearns.. he is tailor made to not just beat floyd but destroy him

    Hearns would best him too. Duran beats him so does leonard . They all can box and brawl. Mayweather has good d but sooner or later he would have to fight . Then its goodnight

    Ken buchanan was faster than mayweather and hit harder too. Duran wore him down and finished him . This fight would be kind of similar.

    Duran beats him by KO in the later part of the fight, would be a great fight to watch. FMJ would have to engage and would make for an entertaining scrap.

    To beat duran you need to hit hard. And floyd dont. Yea duran quit . But he was out of shape . Not motivated and looking for a payday.

    If the fight was at 130, I'd pick Floyd over Duran. People seem to forget Mayweather was considered a boxer-puncher in his early career, he was knocking out cats in the lower weight classes like there was nothing to it. All that talk about "Floyd never had any power" is bull****, it just didn't carry well into the upper classes.

    Duran had a better chin, much more power, more aggressive, but Floyd was faster, mentally stronger, has a 6 inch reach advantage and is MUCH smarter. In the end, that's the one thing that makes me pick him over Duran, and almost any other super feather/light/welter in any era; You just can't outsmart Floyd Mayweather in a boxing ring.

    Edit: No ****ing way in hell does Floyd win by KO/TKO ever. I see him winning a UD though.

    Yea but you can wear him down. Are u saying he woukd best duran at lightweigh haha **** off. Im talking at welter where msyweather has a shot. No one beats duran at lightweight. End off. Go watch duran in his lightweight days. Was fast hit like bulldozer . Fought 15 round . Just an animal.
