In a recent issue of Ring Magazine, they did this one in matching up Mayweather with the all time greats.


I do believe this is a tough fight for Robinson because of the styles. Ray had never met anyone quite as athletic, quick, nor as smart as Floyd. But the same could be said about Mayweather. He's fighting a guy who has a big edge in power, along with the blazing hand speed, perfect footwork, and rock solid chin.


I think its a chess match much of the fight, but Robinson will eventually find Floyd with his straight right hand over the shoulder roll and when he hurts Floyd, PBF won't recover quite as easily as he did Shane.

I think Robinson takes a competitive but clear decision over 15 rounds with Floyd in clear survival mode to just make it to the end.

The only welters who i could see giving a peak Robinson trouble was a prime Leonard and Duran from the first Leonard fight not saying they would beat him just saying they would give him a good fight.

Robinson beats Floyd everytime.
