Interesting array of characters.

Pryor-With all due respect one of the most overrated fighters in the history of the sport. Made a name for himself against Arguello in a fight he most likely cheated in and in more then one way.

Leonard- Could look like the Benitez fight however Floyd is a much more complete package in his prime then that version of Wilfredo. I'd most likely go Leonard on points. Its certainly not out of the question that Floyd wins a tactical. Floyd never had a Leonard but Leonard never faced a Floyd either.

Hearns- I see this one playing out much like Hearns/Leonard only Tommy could stop him. 12 or 15. I just don't see Floyd pulling it out like Ray did but then again he has never been in that situation.

Robinson- This Ray saw nobody like Floyd at 147 and once again the reverse is also the case. The quick answer is off course the man called the GOAT by some but I'm not sure its the correct one.
I'd also pick Ray because of his toughness and resolve but its an interesting fight.

Armstrong-Cant see Floyd beating a prime Hank. He's have to fight the same version Robinson did.

Duran- Toss up I think. If you could get the same Duran as fought Ray in the first encounter it would be a hell of a fight. We may get a glimpse of what it may have looked like tonight albeit watered down do to age etc.

Greb- Oh please man Harry would make Floyd into his rag doll. Like fighting a prime Armstrong thats 160. If you took Floyd via time machine to visit Harry, he'd choose a different line of work and if you brought Harry to this coddled world he'd be dq'd. Its not fair really because of the rules. Greb was fighting with detached thumbs. Floyd would have a short career. Ketchel would most likely beat him to a pulp.
