    No point in arguing with a guy who thinks only slick, black Americans can/could beat Mayweather. The agenda just reeks out all of your posts. Even your user name.

    :lol::rofl:lol:

    It's not my fault PBF is a great H2H fighter dummy. His style matches up favorably with most. A guy who can fight at all ranges with speed can counter long arms who doesn't fade has ATG defense a good chin and a high ring IQ. He has few weaknesses and is damn near complete. You also think Duran would beat Whitaker so what the hell do you know?

    And yes lightweight Duran would probably beat Whitaker.

    Duran beats both Mayweather and Whitaker, Pimp C. I'm never wrong.

    Not really a complete fighter at welterweight at all, more of a defensive wizard and great mover/counterpuncher. His offensive ****nal is a bit limited when compared to the greats at the weight and he doesn't really have a punch at the weight either.

    But a cracking fighter. Great recuperative skills, plans b c and d, slick as oil and a first-class general.

    I doubt it. If Duran thought SRL gave him fits in their rematch Whitaker would make him quit the sport.

    Hearns beats him every time. I'd favor Leonard to outpoint him more often than not. Duran would probably outpoint him on the rare nights when he's at his absolute best at 147 and lose all of the other times. Young Oscar is a tough matchup for him too.

    I think Floyd beats Sweet Pea far more often than not.

    Completely different style's, plus Ray is much bigger than Whitaker ffs lol.
    Pea's one of my favourite boxers so I'm not going to **** on him but facts are facts. He's smaller in reach than Leonard not as teak and hits no where near as hard as Leonard. Duran struggled with bigger, rangy, elusive boxers when he was past lightweight. Facing Whitaker at lightweight he would be in his explosive prime fighting a short armed elusive boxer with average bang.
    Duran win. No doubt about it in my mind.

    Not gonna rehash my argument, but I switched over to believing Floyd would win a few years ago. The main reason is that he's technically superior, which is part of the reason why he's aging so much more gracefully.

    I was watching the Lalonde fight yesterday. Leonard was struggling in a way that Floyd doesn't.

    After a while these threads become pointless as I rarely ever see a poster change their mind about a fighter on these threads. They go into them believing what they want to believe and the leave with the same view point.

    Floyds struggled in a way Leonard doesn't.
