    Mayweather and Marquez are the first to come to mind
    He Who Is Brave Is Free



    Wisdom, compassion and courage are the three universally recognised moral qualities of men.

    Any one who is busy and successful needs to be mentioned like Juan Manuel Marquez and Timothy Bradley.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Yeah, Mayweather Jr. definitely!

    Especially since we already know or have a great "NOTION" of how he "could" have adapted and "would" have effortlessly beaten bigger guys like a "prime Mosely", Cotto, Margarito, Williams, or even Clottey. Throw in the present, clamored fan "faves of the moment", Maravilla, and on a smaller scale, Pacquiao.

    We already know anyway how PBF Jr. "would" have just annihilated these... er... challengers? with extreme ease. Wasted effort, a lot of PBF die hards will vow. Warning has even been issued to these elite fighters, as long as they stay away from PBF, they are fine!

    "Should" these fights ever have taken off during the perceived time frame of maximum relevance, Mayweather's unequaled skill "should" have been quite a "marvel on display" and "would" have had been too much. It "would" have awed us all without end.

    Hell, each one of 'em "could" have even been fight of the year candidates... each and everyone of these "envisioned" matches! No use tho' waste of energy, Floyd Jr. picks em all apart silly.

    Floyd Jr. adjusts pretty well against any competition, all opposition, including the more than your average ones, with particular mention for a specialty on fights having size disparity!

    The greatest and mostest of all boxers of all time.,, hats off to Floyd Mayweather, Jr.

    The Mangoose Archie Moore was famously renown for his capacity to adapt and to change tactics whenever the clock was tickin' against him. He has to be part of the top 3, at worst I could negociate for the top 5.

    Calzaghe always found a way to win. He came out all gungho against Kessler realised he would be better off trying to box rather than mix it up. He confused everyone he ever fought, nobody could really work him out or keep up with him.

    Mayweather Jr the obvious one, Marquez is excellent at it..and to a lesser extent Fernando Vargas could adapt nicely until he gassed out late. (vs Tito)
    Maravila adapted nicely against Barker.
