Floyd would beat Duran at 147.
But at 135, ain't nobody beating Duran

It took Floyd 2 tries to beat JLC clearly.
at nikkas thinking Floyd is going to put some type of clinic on lightweight Duran. Shiet, I don't see Floyd beating him at any weight, but at least at 147 and above its actually arguable. I mean the Duran vs Davey Moore vs the Floyd from the Oscar fight is a toss up at 154lbs in my eyes and that was where both were past their best weights.
I could maybe see Sweet Pea outbox Duran at lightweight, but I wouldn't favor him to do so.
No Floyd would not beat the Duran that beat SRL... I doubt he even beats "No Mas" Duran
lol

What Sugar Ray Leonard did to Duran the second fight is what Floyd would do the first fight. And he would adapt and pop shot Duran all night after the first 5 rounds....he won't be rough housing Floyd on the ropes or really hitting him. He's not fast enough for that shyt. I don't know what Sugar Ray was thinking the first fight with the mixing up and not boxing but Floyd ain't making that comical mistake.
I must have missed the quit job Floyd forced on Castillo. If you don't think Duran is fast enough to hit Floyd you've either never seen enough Duran footage or your just one of them nikkas that think Floyd can overcome anything (even shyt he's never had to deal with)
Either way I'll respectfully disagree on your stance.
Good day breh.
let me keep hearing whispers...ESPECIALLY when i'm drunk and in the atmosphere. Sheeyit, lemme hear you say it's impossible

Even Sweat Pea himself doesn't believe that. He's on record saying even that LW was his best weight, he'd rather face Duran at a higher weight class, because he'd have a better chance at beating him because nobody's beating Duran at 135.This

I'm confident Floyd bests Duran at 147 albeit narrowly, 135 tho :avb1:
Duran is the only one of the 4 kings, gets a W against

Floyd Mayweather skills > Bernard Hopkins skills at any point. You know it too breh.
Secondly, SRL was great...but Prime Floyd could beat him.
Pretty Boy Floyd is a better counter puncher, better defensively, better chin. Prime SRL had slightly faster hands, more power, better footwork. BOTH threw combinations.
You cannot convince me that Floyd couldn't have beat SRL, at least one time, when Duran did.....and Floyd would beat Duran as well. SRL would be aggressive against Mayweather (like he was with Duran and Big Floyd even though Big Floyd was giving him that work before injuring his right hand) and get countered by someone with the speed/punching accuracy/counter punching abilities he has never faced in his career.
SRL vs PBF would be a trilogy. I don't know who would win it all, but I know Floyd would win at least 1 out of 3 bouts.
Let's not underestimate Floyd's talents/skills...we are watching one of the best to ever walk through those ropes.
Hagler and Hearns would run through Floyd though. Their style was all wrong for him

fukk a fantasy man..i hate that, prolly in the minority who does..
The way yall talking down on Floyd....what do yall think happens to Manny against Duran, Hearns, Hagler, and Leonard?
He loses every single bout....easily.
Manny loses to Duran, SRL, and Hearns (Not even mentioning Hagler for obvious reasons)
It's not disrespecting Manny or Floyd, it's just that them nikkas were that good and that speaks volumes on how good Floyd and Manny are when you gotta throw out nikkas like SRL, Hearns, Duran..etc to beat them.
There's no shame in that.
Tyson is awesome as fukk, but he's not garbage all of a sudden just because nikkas think Ali would beat him. Ali is just that good.
Simple as that breh.
word, it does create discussion and opens up plenty of debating but based on what? lolMe too honestly, because it can never be proven in the ring
