Floyd is a phenomenal fighter n ATG boxer. No doubt. That being said, he is small at welter n Ray was at his best at that weight. He had too much offense n too many weapons to lose to Floyd, although Floyd would give him some issues with his speed, defense, n boxing ability. Ray could match Floyd in speed n boxing ability, but is the clear superior in strength, power, n most importantly, toughness. Floyd never had to face talents in their prime on the level of Benitez, Duran. Hearns, or Hagler. Floyd is an ATG but in my opinion welter is not his best weight n he would lose to guys like Robinsin, Leonard, n Hearns. I think his best fights would be at 135/140 vs guys like Whitaker, Duran, n Pryor.
