he would be the man to take the smile off mayweather face , it would be great to see mayweather miss against the best defensive fight since willie pep

whitaker on points for me

mayweather is a very good fighter but he aint got what whitaker had

It would be a draw. Neither would land a punch and neither would attempt to get to the center of the ring.

I think a prime Don Curry would have taken Mayweather apart, and a prime Buddy McGirt would have had success vs him.

Mayweather has adapted to every style that has been put in front of him, I can't see anything different that Curry and McGirt would bring to the table.

Leonard - Mayweather would have been one to watch. Whittaker not a hard enough puncher for me, and Curry just not good enough. Loyd Honeyghan, I think would have been outsmarted. The guy is awesome.

Mayweather would have the punch over Whitiker, as for Curry, he would just pick him apart.... I think you have to go back to the likes of Duran, Leonard and Hearns to find welters who would have beaten him and even then I think he'd be a tough match for all three of those guys....

Pick apart Curry? c'mon keep in perspective how good Hatton is at this weight.

He's neck and neck with Luis Collazo.

Mayweather couldn't pick apart an old slow washed up DLH.He'd be in for a helluva time against men like Napoles, Hearns, Whitaker and Curry.
