Maywether Vs Leonard,Heans,Duran at welter weight?

[Dark Lord Al]

i personally think as great a fighter as Mayweather is , i can see no way he could either outbox or out fight Tommy Hearns , i think he outpoints Duran , and its a pick em between him and Leonard .
But im sorry i just think he gets not only a boxing lesson from Hearns but he has never been anywere near any fighter who even comes close to Hearns's power .
I dont even think it would be competitive , Hearns by brutal KO , to big to powerful and to be fair i think he even outboxes Mayweather.

He beats Duran at either 135 or 147 for me. I think it would be more competitive at 135, but at 147, I think it would be relatively comfortable (116-112.117-111).

The Leonard fight is a pick-em, but over 12 rounds I'd fancy Floyd to do it, like VD said, when Benitez made him miss, he didn't make him pay, but Floyd does. I think a Mayweather decision.

I just don't see him beating Hearns, not to say he couldn't, but Hearns is more wrong for him than any other fighter in history. Long, stiff jab, a better chin than many on here give him credit for and nice body-punching. Maybe Floyd could figure it out, but I don't see it. I don't think Hearns would stop him, I think Floyd is too clever for that, but it would be a close, clear decision for the Hitman.

At lightweight Floyd had MAJOR issues with Jose Luis Castillo in their first fight...if Duran fought Floyd on that night it would have been BRUTAL for Floyd and yes he would have been stopped by Duran.

Ray Leonard could box and he could brawl he had COMBINATION speed and not just quick 1-2 punch speed, he could put together 4-5 punch combinations that you could barely see. Ray had solid yet underrated power and a great chin.

Tommy Hearns was just a BEAST....solid jab, HUGE power in both hands and the best part was his ability to get his bonecrushing power delivered to the point of impact via the straight right cross that was lightning quick...he didn't throw wildly or have to work his way inside to land...he landed from distance and Floyd has NEVER EVER EVER EVER fought a guy like Hearns and everyday he has a fight vs someone not like Hearns he should fall down on his knees and praise God.

The guys I personally would like to see how Floyd stacked up against are as follows:

Alexis Arguello - Tall, lanky, and powerful like Hearns but a little smaller I think it's a more even fight for him.

Pernell Whittaker - Arguably the only guy this side of Willie Pep with as good or better defense than Floyd.

Julio Cesar Chavez - Mainly because his uncle Roger got the shit slapped out of him by JCC

Aaron Pryor - Great chin, big power, decent handspeed

Kostya Tszyu - Big power, great chin, durable fighter

Salvador Sanchez - One tough hombre, fantastic work rate, great chin, solid power

True, but Duran was made to look amateurish by De Jesus in their first fight. He was easily outboxed and nullified by hand speed and a jab. And I think its safe to say Floyd is far superior to De Jesus (RIP) in just about every catagory.

I can't even picture Floyd in a fight againsed a prime SRL, probably because most of his opponents of late are old and nowhere near as fast or active or prime.

Duran at 147 I think he could handle due to the size difference, like Marquez, Duran just wasn't suited to the higher weights. Hearns I think beats him.....I mean who has Floyd ever fought that was anywhere near as good as any of these guys really?

Baldomir, Judah, Mitchell, JMM, Hatton, & ODLH and Mosley....oh wait I'm only helping you by naming those guys, that's not my intention.

You ever seen the man fight? De Jesus was a highly underrated fighter. There was no shame in Duran losing to him like there was when he lost to Kirkland Laing or Pat Lawlor
