    Does Floyd avoid getting sparked out cold?

    that'd be a tall order for Mayweather

    he's got the skills, certainly, but damn that is a test for the chin and strength of a guy who is by no means a true Junior Middleweight

    Yeah, it's too much of an ask for Floyd. He wouldn't see the middle rounds for definite.

    The More Flat Footed, Stationary Floyd of TODAY Gets ICED in 2-3 Rounds...A PRIME Floyd Would Run for his Life but Even Then, he'd have to AVOID Getting hit even 1nce, which is an IMPOSSIBILITY...

    There's a REASON we have Weight Classes & This Matchup would PAINFULLY Illustrate Why...

    I tend to agree with REED

    Mugabi was all puncher and he liked his opponents to know it right out of the gate... Floyd, as great a boxer as he is, is just way too small

    Absolutely...

    Mugabi WOULDN'T Even have to Head Hunt...If when Floyd Attempts to Shoulder Roll, Mugabi Could Hit Floyd ANYWHERE (Arms, Gloves, Shoulders, Ribs, Stomach, Hips) & it'd Be THE HARDEST, Most PAINFUL Shit Floyd's Ever Felt...The Sheer FORCE of Mugabi's Blows would Knock Floyd Off Balance Everytime he Got Touched...

    It'd Resemble Apollo cREED vs. Ivan Drago...

    mugabi by KO. mayweather jr is simply not a very good junior middleweight. he's struggled in both his bouts there

    My first thought was Floyd would just be way too good but after reviewing some clips of mugabi, add my voice to the choir on this one. He'd give Floyd blood clots in his shoulders

    In his very brief prime, Mugabi was an absolutely vicious banger... he crashed about as hard as you possibly can after trying to take Marvin Hagler's crown

    yeah it was, he took an awful beating but he showed a ton of courage in that fight, he really believed he could KO Hagler and he fought like it... one of the more entertaining one-sided fights ever

    REED Got his 1st Whiff of John Mugabi on NBC, Facing Some of their Regularly Televised Guys like Curtis Parker & Frank "The Animal" Fletcher....Mugabi Absolutely WRECKED these Cats in a Way that was just DIFFERENT From Other KO's REED had Seen Up to that Point, in the Mid 80's...Mugabi's Power FROZE his Opponents, Similar to the Way MMA Guys Stiffen Up, when hit w/4oz Gloves...

    These Days, Dudes FIST POUND just as Much as they Shake Hands...REED Bets THAT Shit HURTS, if Mugabi's Involved...

    The couple of flush shots Hagler took only seemed to visibly piss him off. The guy was a complete freak.

    Yeah, his chin was ridiculous. He was not a particularly large Middleweight either... He could get pushed, moved... but he had outstanding skills and was about as durable as a guy can be... plus, he seemed to like punching people in the face a whole lot

    Absolutely...

    Hagler was 1 of those RARE Dudes that Took FLUSH Shots, from Some of THE Hardest Punchers in History, w/Out RETREATING in the Slightest...Hearns May have Hurt/Hit Hagler HARDER than Anybody, yet Hagler REMAINED @ Close Range w/Him & Actually Fought HARDER...

    Marvin Hagler was a Fucking MAN...

    Yep. People talk about the right hand Hearns rocked Hagler with early in the first, but he also caught Hagler with some brutal uppercuts later on in the round and Hagler's head snapped back, but he just kept coming.
