    Pac just clearly beat a guy who was ranked #3 p4p. Floyd arguably robbed a guy who wasnt even top 20 p4p.

    two athletic guys with speed, like Thurman and Porter would give Floyd some problems, but that was true before this fight.

    I guess Porter and Thurman have to beat Broner's ass first before they're "ready" for Floyd.:lol:

    Porter would more than Thurman even though I think Thurman beats Porter

    Porter is rough but his punch technique is good, Mayweather is gonna learn he should be at 140 the hard way

    Porter for sure. It would be chinos style with someone who can match floyds athleticism. Can floyd still get to 50-0.

    Thurman no. He fights are too slow a pace. You don't fight at Mayweather's pace...that's how you lose.

    Porter yes, because he is a powerful pressure fighter. We all saw what he did to Paulie.
