We tend to forget that Floyd wasn't a natural welter. So I agree that the natural world class welters like Robinson, Leonard, hearns, etc would have beaten Floyd.
I always thought that Duran was good enough at cutting off the ring to make Floyd uncomfortable and win a decision. I think Armstrong would have given him trouble too because he has a hard time with fighters who really pressure him and that is the exact style that he fought. I agree that prime de la hoya and Mosley would have given him trouble but not sure if they would win. Sweet pea I think could out defense Floyd and win a close decision.
I doubt there are many people who would just destroy him. I mean, styles make fights so there is always a possibility of somebody being able to beat him easily but I would guess that would only be a few people in history.
