    People keep ragging on PBF.

    Let's put him in with the Roberto Duran that left Ray Lampkin
    in a crumbled heap.

    Who wins?

    A PBF - Hands of Stone Trilogy might make a lot of money
    for the fighters, but doubt if Floyd's body would be up to it.

    Duran, absolutely no question in my mind.

    Duran, no way Mayweather pot shots him Duran had some serious upper body movement and can throw punches from all angles then dive in for a clinch to avoid counter punches in return

    There is no evidence from Mayweather's performance against the average opposition on his resume that would allow ANYONE to comfortably pick Floyd as the winner in this fight. Duran would take this

    Floyd would never trade with Duran like Leonard did the 1st time around. Floyd boxes Duran up for a close UD.

    If Castillo nearly beat him once and pushed him hard the second time then I cant see how he deals with Duran.

    Duran wins 9 times out of 10.

    Those type of arguments arent sound. Castillo got stopped by Hatton, what Mayweather do to Hatton?

    The 1st fight Floyd had a torn rotator cuff which wasnt even fully healed the second time they fought. He basically fought with one hand the entire fight. The second fight was pretty much Floyds by round 8 and by round 10 Castillo was obviously discouraged and Floyd cruised the rest of the way to a victory.
