I would pick Pretty Boy Floyd by decision. Too smart to get engaged in a slugfest. A thinking man's fighter he was like Michael Spinks, Gene Tunney and Sugar Ray Leonard.
Floyd Mayweather Jr was a very complete boxer.

I think Henry Armstrong outhustles him.
Re: Henry Armstrong vs Floyd Mayweather jr.
Some volume punchers would've been too smart to try to outbox Floyd too. A smart fighter is gonna try to fight his fight, and while Floyd was excellent at making many people fight his fight, I don't think he could've done it with everyone through history.elmersalsa wrote: ↑28 Jan 2025, 13:41 I would pick Pretty Boy Floyd by decision.

Of course, the judges might save him. Doubtful that he would ever take the fight against a prime Armstrong.

As long as we're living in a world of hypotheticals, I think we might as well make that world free of corrupt judging.Ambling Alp II wrote: ↑02 Feb 2025, 19:20 Of course, the judges might save him. Doubtful that he would ever take the fight against a prime Armstrong.
