    I think Salido would beat the **** out of young Floyd at that weight.

    Overall, 8-4 but with Floyd scoring 2-3 knockdowns and us being left very impressed with Salido, seeing Floyd as far more beaten up than Salido.
    Salido is the one that would be 'adapting' to Floyd. Floyd would likely score 2 or 3 relatively harmless knockdowns, but his power is overrated at 130.
    Salido would prey on Floyd's inexperience.

    based on what? :patsch
    salidos a rough and tumble warrior who keeps pushing. he is very crude and very relentless. this style is the kryptonite of the up and coming fighter the fighter who has shown huge displays of technical brilliance but is still wet around the ears in the pro scene. salido pushes these guys and if you pass its because you knew how to stick to your gameplan under extreme adversity (jee i wonder who that sounds like)

    theres alot of fighter salido can beat but floyd was always to level headed and skilled, he would not get suckered into wars and always fought the fight HE WANTED TO. the master of ring generalship.

    salido has no hope

    If Maidana was able to do what he did to Floyd then imagine what Salido would do

    You conveniently forget that Floyd said that he was going into that fight with NO gameplay. He said that from the beginning. It was a great fight. He could have just danced the night away like he did the second time.

    No one actually believes that. He certainly had a gameplan, Maidana is very easy to hit. Floyd had absolutely no option but to fight him like that, Maidana was backing him up against the ropes with feints and was forcing Floyd to fight Maidana's fight, literally by force. It's tough for Floyd because when he's overwhelmed, he becomes static and shuts down. It's just the ultimate nightmare for Maidana. Against other styles, he can look amongst the very best ever. That's just boxing.

    I like Salido, and I don't like Floyd very much.


    Salido is an entertaining fighter to watch, but not remotely on Floyd's skill level.

    Floyd would win every round of the fight.

    PBF was 37 when he fought Maidana and cut very early in that fight for the first time in his career. A fact that people like you love to leave out.:deal After PBF got past the cut that bothered him he basically didn't lose a round to Maidana for the rest of the fight. Had PBF not been cut he would have beaten Maidana much easier.

    Mexican warriors are Floyd's kryptonite, that's why he ducked Margarito and was visibly intimidated when confronted by him. He only dared to face ginger Canelo and counterpuncher Marquez

    Actually PBF was alway accused of fighting that exact style slow come forward with no defense. It's just the opposite really. PBF is a stylistic nightmare for it.:deal

    See Mayweather-Chavez, with a couple of knock-downs thrown in.

    Salido wins a couple of rounds, makes it difficult for Floyd at points, and still gets picked apart as the fight goes on.
