    If we're talking Mayweather at his current age then probably most of the top ones at 154-160. Floyd is 40 years old, hasn't fought since 2015 and struggled against Maidana.. A rematch between him and Canelo would most likely result in an Alvarez win. And GGG would kill him.. I love the man but he's finished and I hope he stays retired.

    Nah. We would just LOVE to see GGG separate him from his senses for the most ENJOYED knockout of the century.

    Then we'll leave him alone and not mention him anymore :)

    remember that Floyd was too small for LMW and only fought blown up welters there - and then lost much of his movement - and canelo at a catchweight
    he may have started in the same weight class as Oscar, but he was notably smaller

    I mean number 48 was afraid of needles lol. But I can't figure out who was more scared GGG when he offered Ward 164 or Pacquaio for not being willing to take the test. It's really a toss up. Your boy is broke asking for 20mil guarantees hahaha

    By the way if Pacman fights Horn, that will be worst than any Floyd fight including Guerrero and Berto lol.

    At this point it makes no difference who Pac fights. His legacy as an ATG was sealed long ago. He could pad his record with a string of 0-5 tomato cans and it shouldn't have any bearing on anyone's opinion of him.

    It won't but watch people justify this fight. I just want people to admit this is worst than Floyd picking Berto.

    Interesting replies. So Wlad who is 41 will fight the best, but Mayweather is better off retired vs natural 154-160 ranked opponents who are not aged?

    Wlad prob should have retired after the Jennings fight. If he gets smashed to pieces by AJ as I fear he might then it'll just show that boxing's still a young mans game. There's a reason only two heavyweights have ever defended a strap whilst being 40+.
