No Duran then? No Whittaker?....I think the Duran that beat Leonard would bust up just about anyone and let's remember he's the GREATEST lightweight of All-Time....and Pernell is probably #2 of the "modern era". The Mayorga that demolished Forrest? Yes he was crude and raw, but had a great chin and was brave in the ring

I say Pernell schools Duran, but that's, like, just my opinion.

Definately agree with the Duran comment especially if that Duran fought the Mayweather of a few years ago. Floyd's bulked up and seems alot stronger recently but if they were to fight a while back I just see Duran walking him down then mauling him. It would be like the Cotto fight but Duran would be alot more wiley on the inside. No way do I see him stepping straight back out and letting Floyd top any of the work he did on the inside. Plus Duran had very underrated defense even when moving forward and was a great counterpuncher in his own right.

I have never rated Sweat Pea at welter just thought he came at the right time but at lightweight he was untouchable.

Floyd now certainly is stronger at the weight then when he first fought against Baldimor although he only weight 145lb is against Guerrero?

Disconnect his brain from his body. I know for sure you are not going to beat him by committee!
Floyd's fight plan is always the same, he watches his opponent for a couple of rounds, then starts picking them apart. He lets them get away with a few things at first, then turns up the speed.
Floyd's speed, ring generalship, boxing IQ, ability to wait patiently and almost never getting called for holding are tought to beat.
He's the man, it's pure and simple!

He also has a plan B and C if required. Mosley nailed him early and yet Mayweather wasn't rattled, he simply adjusted and never lost another round! He is the best defensive fighter i have ever seen, his ability to size up his opponents is uncanny, at first you think he might have trouble with a guy and then by the end of round 4 or 5 the fight result is in no doubt because Mayweather has already stepped into gear and has everything under control. You really have to nail him hard within the first two rounds, you have to dictate the fight first or he will destroy you mentally, Mayweather just takes control, works you out and just cruises to the end. The Pacquiao of 3 years ago was the best chance anyone had of beating Floyd, he had the angles, the pressure and the power to do it, he doesn't have that anymore and will be lucky to beat Rios in November. Alvarez has youth on his side, but i fear that Floyd will make a fool of him if they fight this year! In answer to the question posted "How do we beat Mayweather" ?... I'll be fucked if i know!
