    I've always said that Oscar is Floyd's toughest fight, especially at 154lbs. After triumphing there and never looking even hurt for a second let alone in danger of being stopped....I'm hardpressed to find anyone that can beat Floyd (under 154).

    I guess Mosley has the best chance...but even then I see Floyd totally outboxing him. If Floyd was beating oscar to the jab, imagine what he'd do to flat-nosed Mosley?

    Margarito? hahahahahaha!

    Cotto..unlikely.

    Hatton...no chance.

    if floyd fought winky, i think wright woud win. but thats it. he'd clown the slow ass guys like margarito.

    Floyd is very very good

    Margarito has a better shot then the short mosley.

    I say Forest has the best tools if his 100 percent. I think we all know that Floyd can sting you at 154 but can't hurt you. Put then jab in floyd's face is the only why to win. You can't be wild like Margarito or have a short reach like Mosley. Forest is tall long reach and can keep the jab in Floyd's face. The man is 6 foot, Floyd will have to get inside. Forest hugs just as much as Ruiz, and hugman Hatton, so will take floyd's inside game.

    Mosley is the only guy I'd be interested in seeing him against.

    Margarita brings NOTHING to the table for Floyd!

    Well, Castillo already did it once.

    The way I see it, there should be a rubber match.:dunno:

    I agree. DLH was supposed to out muscle PBF and hurt PBF but it was the other way round with the power shots. I mean PBF was the one that staggered DLH. But I think that SM being the cock strong dude that he is will be able to handle PBF plus he is hand and foot faster than DLH. I'll Holla 5000

    HILARIOUS!

    I just watch Mayweather-Castillo 1 last night.

    Floyd CLEARLY won the first four rounds plus 8, 10, and 11

    It's possible that he had another in there somewhere also. No way Castillo won more than 5 rounds in that fight. Lederman was waaaay off in his scoring that night.

    That's why I said 100 percent. No one beats Floyd at 154 and down.

    Going off what I saw tonight I think there are some guys who can beat Floyd at 154, not below 154 though.

    Yeah, Fraud handles big strong iron-chinned body punching pressure-fighting Mexicans, one who can throw punches from unpredictable angles and has the stamina to throw 200 punches a round for 12 rounds, I mean for one, such a description should prove a delicassey for his hands, they're in for a contouring treat. There is no reason to fight Margarito because there is no possible stylistic risk involved, we want only exciting fights for Fraud.

    I agree though, Mosely would BUST Fraud's arse,.. either one of these fighters will do.

    Cory Spinks would beat the shit out of him but there's no shame in that. Mosley-Mayweather would be cool.

    I think Hatton would win a decision against Floyd...not because he's a better boxer...but because he'd use that mauling style that he has used the last couple of fights (and which should be illegal I might add) and not because he's a better fighter.

    I just wish Floyd would do two things: 1) shut the fuck up a little bit...he's a fantastic fighter, everyone knows it...why act like a complete ass hole?, and 2) sit in there and trade some more...I was real impressed with him when he did that tonight...don't like the one shot and out style...but then again, I can't blame the guy for not wanting to take chances when he really doesn't have to.

    If Winky Wright can make 154, he beats Floyd.

    I agree a bit here. The hatton of old may cause PBF some trouble, no tthe new "huggy bear Hatton". Although I would still pick PBF in this fight, that is the style that I think takes to beat Floyd. A pressure fighter. Maybe Paul Williams given a few more fights? Hes good at putting on pressure and has some pop.

    Below 154...NOBODY REALLY....but will still like to see..and MAYWEATHER needs these fight if he whats to be consider all-time GREAT..cause right now he isn't...


    Hatton
    Margarito
    Cotto
    Mosley
    Clottey
    Cintron
    Williams

    ...none are as BIG a victory as beating DLH, but at the end of his career his resume will look much, much better wjith those names at the end.

    I hope Floyd fights Cotto. Floyd wouldn't lose a second of that fight. If that Puerto Zombie landed more than 10% of his shots in any round I'd be shocked. Cotto is a level below Margarito. Don't makj me laugh. Cotto has no chance in a fight with Floyd.

    Dzinziruk would beat him. :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:

    :rolleyes:
    Cotto would land more on Mayweather than that Ricardo Mayorga Reject ANTONIO MARGARITO. Cotto will go all out to the body...GET KO'ed but at least he will try.....
