Re: Can these guys beat Floyd (in their prime)?
Look i do not want to sound stubrun but i saw the fight and i thought Leonard dominated it adn seem to play with him as the fight went on. And when it comes to Floyde i still Feel at welterweight that Leonard beats Floyd and i have seen nothing from Floyde that i can see him beating SRl at welter weight but to be fair Floyde did not start at the weight. So that when i think it is unfari to match him up with Hearns and Leonard because they started at the weight and were both bigger.

No stress man, it's justme yabbing :)
I too felt that Ray was going on to dominate later, but I think FLOYD WAS HURT BY SOMETHING (MAYBE IT WAS HIS CONFIDENCE THAT GOT HURT?) up until the 4/5th i thought he boxed well.
As for Floyd, I don't like him but he is damn talented and having met Leonard myself and marvelled at how small he was I give Floyd a great shot...But Hearns, that man was a different story.
Sorry again for the Caps Lock, the keyboard is dodge.

Leonard beats him in his prime.
Hearns beats him becuase hes far too big for PBF.
Duran would be a good fight with PBF at lightweight would of loved to see that. I pick duran to stop him though.
Obviously, SRR is the probly the best ever so you would have to say he beats Floyd.

The fight I woould most like to see Floyd in would be against Whitaker, may not seem the most exciting fight to some, but I would love to see that fight prime for prime.
