    Default Who would have the most success against Floyd in the early rounds?

    It's no secret that Floyd tends to struggle in the earlier rounds, mainly due to him feeling opponents out and having to make necessary adjustments.

    What fighters would give him the most trouble early on?

    Thomas Hearns was the first guy I could think of.

    Pacquaio. That's why floyd ducked him.

    Floyd doesn't like to fight at a high pace and fighters with high workrate makes him uncomfortable.

    Duran would have fukin destroyed him and so would a prime pacquai.

    Khan would have the speed but would get himself stopped eventually.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I agree. The most intriguing fight vs Mayweather right now is Amir
