I was never suggesting that you were a hater mate but Winky is a BIG lad compared to Mayweather.

I might give him some credit if i didn't fall asleep during his fights.

Snort some lines of coke or crystal meth.

That would indeed fix the problem. I think he'd be a big factor (like frazier in the ali era) but he wouldn't be the clear cut dominator of that era.

i know zab and mosely are suppose to be faster than PBF but mayweather at 147 is as explosively fast as anyone...

leonard might be as fast but not so much faster where it would make a difference... no disrespect to SRL but mayweather could hang with him for sure..

PBF has more explosive speed, but he doesn't throw combinations the same way. 130-135 pound Mayweather was faster than Leonard, but latter on I think they equaled out in speed or maybe little in favor of Mayweather. I think Mayweather would beat Duran in close fights from 135-147 or split wins like Leonard did with Duran, I think he would go on the offensive against Leonard like he did against Judah, and win a close decision. Against Hearns I think he gets outboxed early because of Hearns' height and speed, but then Mayweather will work inside and eventually take over the fight as Hearns would tire out. Hagler... Mayweather would have never fought Hagler.

While I know these guys are all bigger than Mayweather, and comparible athletes I think he is a more schooled fighter than any of them.

Sorry buddy but you are dreaming if you think Mayweather could beat Hearns , Tommy was fast and carried massive power , Mayweather wouldnt even be able to outbox him and he sure as hell doesnt hit hard at welter.
Leornard wins , Hagler well thats murder for a monster like Marvin , Duran well Mayweather at least is a similar natural size so would have a chance.

I think leonard was better then hearns and duran and think out of the 3 he be the hardest for PBf.

i guess these guys would win seeing as how floyd only had 3 fights at 147 and that he's still a true 135 pounder 140 at best....at 140 he kills all of them....

You don't seem to understand. Tommy can't fight on the inside at all, and thats where Mayweather would fight him. I think Tommy would have a hard time hitting Mayweather with a clean punch. Mayweather doesn't knock people out at welterweight, but he does hit pretty hard, and everyone has respected his power. Why does Leonard win? Mayweather is the more complete boxer though Leonard does have the size on him. They are equal in speed. Its a close fight that either could win. Mayweather is a faster, better boxing version of Benitez. As for Duran I think he was bigger than Leonard personally though he started at a lower weight, but once against he could win because MAyweather is so eager to go on the defensive that he sometimes doesn't get enough done, but I think Mayweather could outbox him for 12-15 rounds, but its whether or not Duran's pressure gets him the nod or not that I wouldn't know. Now if Tommy or Leonard were southpaw then I would have them destroying Mayweather, but their not.

They are pretty equal in speed at Wetlerweight. I think lower weight PBF was a lot faster, but he slowed down going up to 147. Sure Leonard always threw the faster combinations, but that was his style. I think Mayweather has a little more explosive speed on his punches and he sticks them as good as any.

Leonard's style would demand mayweather come forward a bit to avoid being picked off for an easy points victory. In opening up his offense Maywether makes himself more open to taking punches and gets clipped repeatedly. SRL could win this on a stoppage.
