    Ray wins by pretty comfortable decision by being much more willing to let his hands go & being quick and skillful enough not to be totally nullified by Floyd's defense and traps (even skillful enough to set a few of his own). Floyd frustrates Ray, but can't do it while doing enough offensively. Ray's foot speed and range are important, here.

    Ray 10-5.

    I see it closer, 9-6 for Ray or even 8-7. It'll be whether judges score for workrate and agression or accuracy and defense.

    I might be in the minority here but I think Floyd is a GREAT fighter.

    That said, IMO Ray is one of the best ever and beats Floyd, possibly even stops him

    Leonard 10-5, 11-4 or a KO late depending on how brave Mayweather gets
