    Forrest @ 147 and above would have also beaten PEDiao

    Hard to envisage a fighter who couldn't work out how to beat Mayorga working out how to beat Floyd.

    Stylistically a very tough match-up for PBF, but I'd still pick him if my life depended on it.

    Forrest.

    Too big, too strong. Mayweather isn't a particularly big welterweight and will have to get inside to make any impression. He's not a reckless type like Mayorga.

    Better lb for lb and style for style, Floyd.

    Who'd win at 147lbs? Vernon Forrest.

    Anyone remember Mayorga ? I know he had problems with his shoulder but it was after Mayorga wasn't it ?
    Floyd will tie him up, bang to the body and take right hands to the face. Close fight but Floyd would take it.

    Roger Mayweather once said that Vernon Forrest would be the hardest fight that could be made for Floyd.
