But could of, should have, would have means nothing now

IMO even after the fight I went over in my head all of Floyds performances in his career and the Hatton fight last night and tried to put him against Leonard or Hearns in their primes and in all honesty
(and I know I will get some flack on this one)....I see both men dispactching of Floyd.....Hearns would be waaay to strong and Floyd would not connect...Leonard would not only bully Floyd but out fight him or out box him when need be....

Floyd had a good win last night but it took 7 rds to get going....something that he would not be able to afford against the two mentioned
It's not really fair to compare Hearns and Leonard with Floyd directly though. Hearns was simply massive and Leonard is a lot bigger than Floyd.

I'd expect both Hearns and Leonard to be big too big for Floyd in a real fight but p4p he's right up there.

If Floyd and Hearns were the same size, no way Hearns wins that imo. Leonard would be a really tought fight, but again Floyd has never lost, he's always adjusted even mid fight to make sure he gets the win so I really don't see a case for saying Hearns or Leonard would easily beat him other than the for the fact they are both so much bigger.
