    Whitaker vs Tszyu, gotta agree big time with El Kabong on the Hearns vs Mosley matchup. I always thought that Mayweather would have made Trinidad look really bad...just my opinion though.

    I agree with that.

    He'd box circles around Trinidad.

    Until he felt the power of Tito and then he would either be knocked out or lose a decision running on his back foot.

    If you fight Floyd, you better hope that your money punch is a straight right, like Hearns, because you're not landing a hard left hook on Floyd's chin. Hopkins embarrassed him, Winky embarrassed him, Oscar embarrassed him and got robbed... I can't see him beating Floyd.

    Sounds like the De La Hoya fight.

    Tommy Hearns and Mosley, look at the guys that beat Mosley namely Forrest and Wright....Hearns just as tall and lanky but with killer power.
    Hearns handles Mosley fairly easily at 147.

    Tyson v Louis because Tyson started fast and Joe was slow. Tyson could jump him.

    Ali v Joe Louis because Joe could not handle speed, boxing skills and good movement.

    Mike Tyson vs Ken Norton I mean there's no way around it Tyson is all kinds of shit Norton hated: durable, fast, strong, quick hands, big time power...Norton wouldn't last.

    People disagree with me on this but Tommy Hearns would be all wrong for Money Mayweather. Too much size, length, power, activity on the Hitman's side. (6'1", 78" reach). Just too much to overcome.
    I'm a big Floyd fan and I don't disagree that Hearns would be about as tough a fight as you could get for Mayweather. Styles make fights and that would be a tough one for PBF.

    On the subject of Mayweather, I don't think Roberto Duran wins 2 rounds against Floyd Mayweather or Pernell Whitaker at LW. Not that Duran wasn't the better LW than those guys all time, but the styles were just poison for him.

    Joe Frazier wouldn't last 3 rounds with Mike Tyson IMO either. They could fight 100 times and Joe would get knocked out 100 times.
