    Floyd vs Duran

    Both around the same size so P4P is almost meanigless in this one. Duran gives Floyd lots to think about with his agression and volume punching but he never hurts Floyd and misses quite a bit.

    Floyd by Split decision

    Floyd vs Leonard

    Toughest style matchup of the 4 for Floyd. Floyd outboxes Leonard for the most part, in the early going with better defensive skills and slightly better foot movement, but Ray wins a razor close decision on account of his handspeed advantage, flurries and finishing strong.

    Floyd vs Hagler

    Easiest style matchup for Floyd of the four. Beats Hagler, who tries to box early, by having a huge lead at the mid-way point and Hagler's agression coming too little and too late. Hagler, P4P didn't punch any harder than anything Floyd has already seen and Floyd will avoid the majority of his punches.

    Floyd by clear UD

    Floyd vs Hearns

    Most dangerous fight for Floyd in most senses but also the only one of the four that he could have stopped, P4P (at 147 hearns kills him). Hearns with a very slight lead going into the latter stages gets hurt and stopped by Floyd by the 11th.

    p4p doesn't exist so:

    PBF-Duran @ lightweight - PBF is too quick for the clutcher and decisions him

    PBF - Leonard @ welter - speed is about even, skill is even but since Leonard was the better aggressor and more ready to take chances, he wins the decision

    PBF - Hearns @ welter - Hearns was unbeatable for pure boxers and PBF would never attack against him. Tommy by convinving decision

    Hagler beats him up bad

    All of them beat Floyd. Only varying degrees of margins.

    Floyd would never beat Hearns, let alone stop him without the aid of a steel chair.

    P4P the only fighter on that list I'd favor Floyd over is Hagler, and even that I'm not sure of. Thats a pick em.

    He loses to Duran, Hearns, and DEFINITELY to Leonard.

    First of all, let me say that in your history of biased boneheaded posts, this is a top ten featurette...

    With that said...

    Fab 4 4, Mayweather 0

    Mayweather could fare the best against Duran but seeing how Floyd bitched up in parts of the fights with Castillo, I don't see how he could handle Duran's more effective aggression, footwork and counterpunching ability.

    Thanks for the love! I see they've made you a moderator in my absence. Cupey's obviously lost his mind.

    In any event, don't worry, I'm only here until the De La Hoya Floyd fight

    Slystaff is an idiot. Mayweather hasn't had a single fight above 147, and Slystaff's comparing him to one of the greatest middleweights of all time? Mayweather refused to fight Winky Wright because Wright was too big. What about Hagler?!?!? What about all the times that Mayweather's stated that he'll never move above 154? Slystaff simply doesn't know his shit about Mayweather.

    Floyd gets mauled by Duran at 135 , 140 , and 147 .. A prolonged beating ..

    Leonard - a big Welter stops Floyd in 5 rounds at 147

    Hagler - If Floyd ever attempted what Duran did and move to 160 , he gets demolished in 3 rounds and brought out on a stretcher ...

    Hearns - He KO's Floyd in 3 rounds at 147 and breaks his jaw ...

    if nothing else this thread is a compelling example of the psychosis that has taken grip of so many when it comes to PBF, and the extreme degree to which he is now over-rated by so many.

    You can't hurt what you can't hit. Hagler was only marginally taller than Floyd, and more than a step slower of hand and foot.

    Floyd would beat Hagler at 160lbs weighing only 147. Marvin simply wouldn't be able to corner him frequently enough to inflict heavy damage.


    Floyd by decison at 160!!

    Let's forget Pound for pound and discuss teh fights..STRAIGHT UP!

    Floyd cannot beat Leonard or Hearns, bottomline, and could possibly be stopped by both (especially Hearns) but arguably lose pretty clear decisions to either.

    However...

    Both Hagler and Duran would be made a mockery of!!!!!:flip:

    When Mayweather makes a mockery of someone in the same stratosphere as Duran or Hagler you can come back and make this statement.

    For now it's your own personal fantasy.

    Yes, because Hagler and Duran were such slow guys who lacked boxing skill and were so easy to outbox. :rolleyes: :lol:

    Yeah, neither one of them ever beat a guy who didn't stand in front of them.

    This is incredibly REEDtarded.

    Floyd is 5'7" on a good day.

    Not to mention, Hagler has a significant reach advantage.

    Please explain how Floyd could get out of the way of Hagler's right hook or right jab.

    Plus, he'd lean into the straight left.

    If Judah and Mitchell could catch Floyd, don't you think Hagler would have.

    Your nuthuggery of Floyd has reached unprecedented levels.

    Leonard outclasses Floyd, Duran steamrolls floyd, Hearns outboxes and possibly knocks him out. Hagler, I won't go there(everyone knows Floyd can't handle southpaws).

    I know Floyd outboxed Baldomir how could he possibly lose to these guys?:laughing:
