    130:
    No one comes close.

    135:
    Shakur would give him a good fight, nice boxing match.
    Tank would remain dangerous but get schooled.
    Keyshawn is a knock off version, gets boxed up.
    Andy Cruz would be interesting, need to see more of him.
    Mason too raw.

    140:
    Teofimo always performs to the level of his opponent so could win some rounds with Floyd but ultimately gets out boxed.

    147:
    Ennis would be a tough puzzle for Floyd, we're starting to get into the size range where Floyd is stretched. Floyd would be favoured but it's tough.
    Haney gets schooled.

    154:
    Crawford would give him a really good fight, is capable of winning on his day.
    Ortiz Jr would give Floyd some resistance, but Floyd wins.


    For me.. I think Crawford, Ennis and Shakur in that order of difficulty.

    Honestly? I don't think any of them could. Crawford would do the best out of them, but I would pick Floyd to win 10 times if they fought 10 times, regardless of whether it was at 147 or 154. I think Floyd wins every round against Ennis as well; his defense is nowhere near good enough to give Floyd any trouble over 12 rounds.
