Who do you think would have beaten Floyd in his respective weight classes?

At 130lbs, during PBF's career the only choice is Casamayor, who I would pick PBF to beat.

At 135lbs, I had Castillo winning 116-113 in the 1st fight, and PBF winning 116-112 in the 2nd. Castillo did in my mind, so he could have.

At 140lbs. Cotto wasn't where he's at now, and Hatton would fare better at
140lbs, but would still lose pretty badly. Tszyu was at the end when PBF moved up, but he had the best chance. Still go with PBF in that fight though.

At 147lbs. Cotto would have a 50/50 chance, Mosley may have been able to do it, and the same with Paul Williams and Antonio Margarito, possibly Joshua Clottey too. I pick PBF over all except Cotto.

He only fought at 154lbs for the money fight with ODLH.

 

Cotto, DLH, & Mosley could've possibly beaten him.. DLH took him to a SD the first time and could've made a few changes for the rematch they had planned..

 

Nobody from 130-135???

I can think of a couple. I know that they are names you may not have heard of before....they are kind of obscure fighters....but they were pretty decent in their day. True they never really hitting the "limelight" persay'...but I think they could stand a fair chance against Floyd nonetheless. Both were at their best at LW but also moved up and did pretty good.

One guys name was Roberto Duran. I think ya pronounce his last name like that 80s band Duran Duran but Im not 100% sure. Believe it or not, this guy was pretty good at LW....I know what your saying??? But Sues, I never heard of him before. Its ok, if ya go to youtube their may or may not be a couple of videos on him that may help.

The other guys name kinda escapes me for the moment. I remember his nickname being something about a vegetable. Sweet Corn, or Sour Green Bean or Sweet Pea....OH YEAH THAT WAS IT!!! Sweet Pea...Pernell something or other....WHITAKER!!! THATS IT, PERNELL WHITAKER!!! I think he may be Lance Whitaker's dad or something...that may be wrong tho. Word on the street is, this guys defense was actually pretty good....offense too. Check youtube as well, there may be one or two of his fights on there.

Hope I was some help!!!

:good

Shane mosley at 135 or 147 prime mosley

 

No one ... no one in those weight classes have ever seen a talent like him before ... you would have to go back to the 80's and beyond ...

Maybe Pernell Whitaker -- but I doubt it
