Thurman would have KO'd Floyd and Floyd knows that

[mikeeod]

Floyd would never stop a top welterweight because he does not punch that hard and if he wins it would be on points.

A ring rusty Floyd v Thurman now would be interesting challenge for the money man.

I see your point, but will have to disagree with you (respectfully, of course!). Garcia, in my opinion, is really a 140 pounder who is MUCH slower than a prime Floyd. That fight would resemble Gatti vs. Floyd, where Floyd would start cautiously due to Danny's power, and then as he became frustrated/tired, Floyd would pick up the pace and start landing multi punch combos for the stoppage.

Thurman is a good/full sized Welter, but he consistently wilts late in fights and I don't see him as durable as the welters Floyd couldn't stop (Mosely, Baldy...etc.). As I said in the original post, if Keith goes into survival mode early he goes the distance (still struggles to hear the final bell like Judah/Mosely), but if he presses for the win, I see Floyd picking him apart for the late stoppage. I just feel Floyd was on a completely different level than both of those guys.
