    Silver spoon? He grew up poor, you idiot. His father is a jailbird.

    I think early De La Hoya would have given him hell, I would also take JC Chavez at 135

    Sweet P out points him as well

    Smaller weight matchups like this are the only ones that interest me

    Too much speed for Zoo as much as I love him

    Castillo
    Pacquaio
    Williams
    ODLH

    The 4 who would have given him the best fights in their primes. On both sides of the fence.

    The only ones i see is prime pacman and have a funny feeling kosta tyszu could have been mayweathers kryptonite. He didnt really miss many punches and he could hit as well. Same with pacman who did miss a fair bit but in his prime he threw punches in bunches. To mayweathers credit he fought a great fight against pacman. Seemed a lot more powerful than usual. And made pacman a bit hesitant compared to usual plus his punch output was on the wane anyway.

    Again you d have to favour him against pretty much anyone. Had his style down to an art in the end. But still always had a feeling about tyszu.

    While he was fighting, no. History is something different.

    Imagine Naz who was more talented than Judah who put Floyd through hell until Roger Mayweather strangled him and disrupted his gameplan just floating around picking Floyd off with that grin on his face. A young Floyd would get flustered especially with his dad and uncle screaming that he is fighting like a coward and he would get KO'ed.

    We seen how easy Floyd is to hit when he engaged too, look what gatekeeper Maidana did when he busted Floyds ass, and how Manny countered him at will, Naz was an offensive master who would pick him apart. MAB was a much better offensive fighter than Floyd and walked Naz down, Mayweather could never do that, he couldn't even do it against a shot former flyweight.

    Assistant? wtf you talking about?

    The rematch as stated by Castillo was pointless, like Castillo who said '' you lose motivation and don't train as hard when you beat Floyd and they still give him a gift, you feel what's the point'' that happened to Maidana too, just accept the payday knowing nothing you do will change the outcome unless you knock him clean out.

    Trouble is the way you type is not very eloquent and I am finding it hard to decipher your ghetto text, can you try again so I can destroy your arguments some more.

    Worse subjective post on here.

    It's widely accepted now that Pac won, it was proven he landed more, proven he landed more telling blows, proven he hurt Floyd, proven he was faster and better reflexes the way he was countering and proven Vegas protected their commodity right down to denying Pac a legal pain killer, giving Floyd his illegal pain killer and then masking his ped's with illegal IV treatments in his home.

    You been socially engineered just how your handlers intended and sold a product that you lapped up.

    We have to remember this is Manny who went through many wars, a post Margo Manny who changed and even changed again after JMM's hail Mary, Pacquaio who doesn't dart in and out throwing 1000 punches, Pacquaio who lost the killer instinct, who slowed down, who became more placid and calculating in the ring, Pacquaio who doesn't gobble punches to land his own bombs. This is the worst Pacquaio since his green days and he still no matter how you slice it showed he could outbox Floyd and in many eyes won, and at the very worse lost a razor edge and that's being generous to Floyd and playing devils advocate.

    Don't believe what you hear. If someone tells you to go jump, don't jump you idiot. Did someone tell you to jump?

    All rappers, boxers tell you they grew up in the hood, they grew up poor but you don't know.

    Margarito, Cotto and Kosta Tsyuzu.

    Nah

    Everyone else is worthy.

    I would never want to see Winky/Mayweather.

    Real talk.

    Everyone in attendance would leave the arena after the 5th rnd .

    You guys are f**king idiots lmaooooo. Here's a list that I came up with easily:
    Mike McCallum @154
    Prime de la Hoya @147
    Little Vasyl @130
    Simon brown @147
    Sumbu Kalambay @154
    Marlon Starling @154
    Amir Khan @ 147

    These are just a few guys who can beat him, i didn't name the 4 kings of the best generation of fighters because they're too obvious.. Tommy hearns would not only knock Floyd out but he would outbox his ears off as well
