    Floyd does not fight in a similiar style to martinez:rofl, Margo beat martinez in 2000, I doubt you have ever even seen the fight. If you had seen it you would know that margo was surprisingly fast at that time.

    Winky would beat floyd, forrest I would have to watch him again to my my decision. But forrest would be a hard fight for mayweather regardless

    I would favor FMJ by a lopsided (boring) decision. I always wonder just how good FMJ is, because it seems to me once he takes control of a fight he puts it on criuse control. As a fight fan I can appreciate his defensive skills, but for quite a few years now most all his fights are lacking excitement.

    At 47 i dont see Vernon giving PBF too many problems. He's getting way too overrated here. Apart from his booming right hand theres no way he would counter Floyd.
    Anyone here remember the clinic Kostya put on him in the amateurs? Imagine that x2.

    Thats exactly what it would be. Forrest was a counter puncher. 2 counter punchers = boring by default.

    Why? Bak then Floyd was down at 130lbs. Vernon was a massive welterweight at 47. NO ONE was calling for this fight. Back then everyone wanted to see Naz vs PBF.

    Forrest would beat PBF in my opinion. Too big for him. Too tall too good of a jab along with a great rock hand which KD a prime Mosley. Only man to ever do that actually.

    floyd would have had his hands full. vernon had long arms, his 1 2 punch would long, fast and hard. vernon in his prime had it all, except a world class chin.

    floyd UD by 3 rds
