    IMO I believe felix will need to bring a whole lot more than just a left hook. If this fight happened he will be fighting against one of the most gifted fighters of our time, faster than de la hoya, slicker than Hopkins and slightly better defensively than Winky.

    Well, he's also MUCH smaller then Hopkins, Winky, and DLH. It's not as simple as saying, "Floyd is better then all them, so he'd do what they do but better...) because Hopkins, WInky, and DLh all have things Floyd simply doesn't (which they used against Tito as well). Such as size advantages, or matching up better in size. Tito was a very good body puncher too. He commits to it like he does his left hook.

    LIke I said to Symphenyceo, I am not trying to give the impression Tito would WHUP PBF or that Floyd had no chance. His skill alone makes him a threat to anyone. However, we can't also just assume Floyd wins based on Tito's losses to others.

    Anyway, I gotta run and eat. Good talking with you and Symphenyceo. :thumbsup

    Tito barely grazes Floyd on his temple with a left hook and Floyd runs for his life and forfeits. Floyd to small for the beast power of Tito, 130lb fighter against one of the hardest hitters at 147lbs? I think Tito would have more than a punchers chance lmao.

    Floyd lost a split decision against an old DLH.

    Personally I think Floyd would have taken a fkn beating from a prime DLH, Tito and Mosley.

    What does how they beat Whitaker have to do with how they would fare vs. Floyd? :huh

    Floyd fought NOTHING like Whitaker and wasn't as agressive either.

    He weighed 150 vsm DLH. What people think natural weight was doesn't matter. Floyd is a WW today in terms of size.

    We all know Tito does not throw unless he has a target. Its in his wiring. Look at the winky fight. Tito did not throw b/c Winky gave him no target. Floyd makes tito miss like crazy and just out boxes him.

    Doubt they would beat the **** outta him. All three definately have done more and beater better WW's then Mayweather has though. That seems to be the basis of many "Mayweather would beat [INSERT BOXER]" threads...his resume.

    I noticed that. Sometimes Winky was right infront of him and all i kept thinking was "throw some god damn punches". I enjoyed seeing him lose however it was also frustrating at the same time
