    I think the mentally that you can beat any active fighter naturally crosses over to fighters of the past. Why shouldn't Floyd feel he could beat SRR, SRL, ect? Why shouldn't Manny Pacquaio feel he would smash Homicide Hank? It all goes back to the positive thinking you need to be a champ. It's a brutal, violent sport where you don't ask for something, you go out and take it with brute force.

    And on the Duran thing... anyone boxing savvy who feels Duran beats Floyd are kidding themselves and thinking with their hearts instead of their brains, because Floyd is absolute POISON for Duran.
    Not at lightweight. Duran eats him up and spits him out.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Agree with that. At lightweight nobody touches Duran, the man was a complete fighter.
    There hasn't been such a complete fighter up until now with Floyd.
