Both of them losing clearly to Mayweather when they are old and out of prime proves Mayweather would beat them in their prime?
you may be right about pacs speed as he is always throwing punches from unorthodox angles but non the less most fighters cant see them very well. Oscar's hooks are fast but his straight punches come in slower. I think its because he never out that extra emphasis on them well except for when he had Vargas in the corner but again those were very tired shots. Oscar v Tito left a really bad taste in my mouth about oscar and I've never really gotten over it so maybe that's why he's always been a quitter to me but that's my bad. De la Hoya and Mosley's problems are that the cant defend as well as they attack while mayweather is the most accurate fighter in boxing history and has the best defense i've ever seen. Finally he adapts to any fighting style within 4-5 rounds and either changes the pace of the fight to his liking or uses the opponents style against them. I just cant see him getting destroyed especially when i've never even seen him hit the canvas from any of the hard shots he's taken. (I know zab technically dropped him but that was mostly bad footing) I honestly see the Mosley fight going alot like it went with mosley much younger and throwing more and being countered pretty hard most of the fight. Mosley's always thrown those looping hard shots and left himself open for punishment. All I know is Mayweather doesnt get destroyed by either of these men in their primes or not.
on the flip side it makes you sleep better at night and perform better at work to imagine people can beat Floyd
I think they both beat Oscar. I think Pac beats that version of Oscar better than Floyd, because of his tenacity. But, I'm not so sure if Manny would beat that version of Shane. Floyd, on the other hand, would outbox him.
No one who can score a fight believes this. Ask ten people what round DLH won "for sure' and get ten different answers.
Yes Shane and Oscar would have whooped them...I think Forrest beats Floyd and Trinidad beats Pac too.
10 years ago, yes it would have a very good fight. But 10 years ago Mosley and Oscar would not have wasted a minute thinking about a fight with either Floyd or Pacquiao.
