    In a fantasy bout
    Between these three opponents

    Robert Guerrero (135)
    Orlando Salido (130)
    Timothy Bradley (140)

    Which fight (iyo) would be the most entertaining?

    At any given moment Mayweather could get knocked out, his chin was below average, though none of the fighters mentioned hit with dynamite in their hands, that really wasn't needed for Mayweather. However he was well schooled and he did have dynamite in his right hand. Tough call, Mayweather had the tools to defeat those 3, but I thought he had the tools to beat Baltazar and Lockridge. He could go 3-0 or 0-3 .

    I feel Mayweather took many punches off of Vinny Paz who wasn`t very good at all, Bradley would have toyed with Paz and done much better vs Chavez fighting in his own weight class, Chavez destroyed Mayweather at lightweight but his punch lost it`s edge as he moved up and hit heavier guys, Roger took Julio`s punches better at light welter but still couldn`t do much with Julio and was out boxed, his shoulder roll was defeated by Chavez`s left hooks, Bradley would have used better defense and would have dodged those hooks, look how well Tim fought vs a clever offensive fighter like Pac, Manny would have smasher Roger to bits and outclassed him, I feel a fight between Tim and Mayweather would be similar to the Whitaker fighter with Bradley getting inside Roger`s long reach and throwing as many punches as Whitaker did, who managed to deck Roger and overpower him to a large degree it wasn`t just Whitaker`s hand speed that hurt Roger.

    The Salido fight would be fun, because Salido would try his usually dirty/mugging tactics and Roger wouldn't tolerate that for a second.
