I agree with everything Ray said before the comparisons. I disagree with him there, but I don't fault Ray because every fighter who ever lived thinks their generation was was better than the future generations. I think that's pretty consistent even outside of boxing. My dad ragged on my generation saying they were lazy, and my generation rags on the current generation for being entitled. It is what it is.

It's fine to say you think Leonard, Duran, Hearns would beat Floyd, but to say Duran and Benitez would toy with him? Come on. That's just ridiculous.

No I don't think your dads wrong at all, Floyd would have been KO a few times remember theses
guys faced each other, not like Floyd who it seems to cherry pick his fights.
Yes Floyd is a great fighters but those guys in the 80s would have cleaned his clock, but Floyd is
king of shit pile this moment in time, now is now then was then.!!!!!!!

I don't think that 'toy' is the right word. Especially for Benitez; I think he is given more credit than he deserves though, for a moment there, he was good. At his best Duran would beat him pretty easy though, to be fair, Duran was at his best at 135 and Mayweather was not at his peak at that weight.

I can't see any version of Duran toying or beating Floyd easy. That's a hard fight for Duran or anyone else.

I don't see Floyd beating Leonard... and I see him having trouble with Hearns the way Leonard did, but will wear him down like Leonard did.

I think Duran would have given Floyd his first loss IF it was at lightweight... the best chance of someone beating him at a prime level at the time.

Benitez would have lost a wide-UD... and Hagler would be bewildered by Floyd's movement, even though Hagler was strong and relentless.

People don't like to think about Terry Norris in this discussion, but he had keys to beat Floyd too...

Hagler bewildered, Floyd battered asleep on the floor, in a pool of blood and snot.

Exactly how would Floyd wear Hearns down? I'd like to know

I think Duran at lightweight would beat Floyd but not at welterweight although the fighter that beat Leonard may have stood a very good chance.

When was Floyd's peak?

You 're adding Bradley to this joke? Seriously the completely ordinary Tim F'n Bradley ? Do you believe this? Seriously? I genuinely want to hear you say you believe Floyd fears Tim f'n Bradley

You realize that absurdity discredits any other point you would try to make right? I mean Tim f 'n Bradley? Haha
