Thread: Floyd Mayweather vs. Kermit Cintron.

Who would have won back in 2007?

Kermit. Way too much power for Floyd to handle.

This is a joke thread right?

I'd take Cintron on points, to much heart, determination and adaptability for Floyd to deal with.

Cintron was a beast in those days. In twice with Margarito! Only in Mayweather's worst nightmares would someone willingly do that! And that was in Margarito's concrete fisted prime too! Cintron by wide decision.

Can't hurt what you can't hit...
Floyd UD.

Cintron has hope. As long as he leaves a puddle of tears wide enough, better chance Floyd has of twisting an ankle

I agree. Cintron was disappointing in the end. Couldn't handle a loss.
After he saw he couldn't hit Floyd while Floyd could hit him, he would have come apart.

Why spoil the thread with some logic. Saul Alvarez was far better than Cintron who could not lay a glove on Floyd.

Cintron was a monster puncher and would have knocked out Floyd clean.

Poor Cintron...

He did outbox a prime Angulo and he was at his best with Emmanuel Steward.

Kermit is too nice of guy to be a boxer. Too nervous and unsure of himself too.

If Floyd tried to lay on the ropes against Cintron he would get his arm broke because Kermit hit harder than anyone but outside of power he was also a boxing genius in the ring.

Kermit may not have had the right mindset to be a great fighter..... but I'll never forget the KO he laid on Walter Matthysse back in '07. After an action-packed first round, Kermit KO'ed Walter with one of the most vicious one-two combinations I've seen before or since. Walter was already out after the left uppercut (his eyes went cross-eyed). But before he could start falling down, Kermit shot a right hand to the temple that took Walter down like he'd been shot.

Enormous talent, just not the right mentality for the sport.

Like Tito Trinidad, both hands were lethal

That's probably the only thing they had in common.
