    Basilio at both weights, IMO

    I think he can force an uncomfortable pace

    People always say that about Floyd's opponents, but then time and time again he forces them to fight at his pace. Floyd's movement, defence and counter-punching slows aggression. Same thing would happen to Basilio.

    An all time great master boxer is not losing to a bruiser/bleeder.

    And then God said, "Like I said before, let there be light." And there was light.

    Floyd is underrated around here if people would pick Basilio to beat him. Yeah I know Basilio beat Robinson...but Robinson was 39 at the time.

    Robinson Also DIDN'T Utilize the Ring to the Degree Welterweight Floyd Does...Robinson HAD Good Wheels, but he was More Interested in INFLICTING Punishment, vs. AVOIDING it, the Way Floyd Does...

    REED Likes Floyd by Boring, 12 Round UD...
