    I will have to disagree and say DLH and SSM were old and slow by the time he fought them. Bradley isn't that fast and I don't think too ring smart either. I've followed him though out his career and he used to be a smotherer and throw a lot of wild arm punches. Tommy Hearns was showing Bradley how to throw a proper punch. Because Bradley saw Marquez outbox Pac he knew he couldn't come face first, but he mostly fought negative rather than smart. No traps or counter punches, just backing up and being evasive. He twisted his own ankles trying to fight on the outside because he doesn't really know how to do it.

    The OP did not say Pac is the favorite.

    I'm saying these were the fastest guys I remember him fighting. They were above average speed, and definitely slick defensive types.

    Mayweather had said for a long time Augustus was his toughest fight and for good reason, the guy was not easy to counter and used a lot of head movement to disrupt Mayweather's timing.

    Mitchell was sorta slick, but he just wasn't a A level slick. Many people thought he was outboxing Tszyu prior to his knee giving out. I personally didn't see that way, but I know he was considered one of the top players at 140 for a number of years.

    Of course Floyd is the favorite. Why wouldn't he be?

    I love Pac but I would put money on PBF winning the fight.
    Bigger.
    Good chin.
    Best counterpuncher in the business.
    Better defensive skills.

    PBF knows he should win but the problem is that the fight is risky (due to Pac being a southpaw, fast and powerful).

    PBF talks big but is conservative in picking fights, hence he doesn't want to take the risk.

    Maybe he will when he career is almost over.

    Alexander also beat the brakes off of Maidana worse than the other two. Is Alexander going to beat the brakes off of Kahn? Should he be first in line to face Mayweather?

    The Maidana that Floyd fought was a different fighter from the one that Khan fought.

    Khan isn't some master boxer.

    You mean the fight that was in St Louis?

    People love to overrate their fighters performances.

    Alexander has never beaten the crap outta anybody

    Judah after losing with lots of miles on the clock.

    Mosely with 1000000 miles on the clock.

    DLH part-time fighter, and nearly lost.

    Don't try to turn **** into gold.

    :patsch

    *****s says he has never lost.

    I say 'big deal'.

    Thats because he never fought the best.

    Thats why he smeared and stayed away from Pac in 2009.

    PBF isn't half the fighter BHops is.
