Salvador Sanchez vs Floyd Mayweather jr who would have won?

Answer 1

Floyd Mayweather is the greatest fighter to ever walk the Earth. I say his next fight should be taking out Nicolay Valuev and winning the WBA title like Roy Jones Jr. did.

Answer 2

This question is an absolute insult to Sanchez. The fact that you would compare someone who became a legend at 23 to a man that has reached 32 and has faced not a single notable opponent amazes me. Never in all my years as a boxing fan have I seen someone so blatantly duck every fighter in every weight class he fought in that wasn't 40 or a club fighter. He has no notable wins and I could give you a list of his opponents if you don't believe me. DLH is not a notable fight because an old *** DLH almost beat him and in my opinion got robbed. Next Hatton was overrated and not notable at all only fighting euro bums. Those are the only two fights of his career worth mentioning. Sanchez beat three fighers that were ranked on the list of the 100 greatest boxers ever. Not only did he beat them but he knocked all three out. He had a jab that would cut you up and matched Ali in his hard jab, he had a granite chin and was floored only once in his entire career at 18, and had amazing power that would leave you cut up and with swollen eyes. There is not a single opponent that fought him more than ten rounds and didn't suffer a cut or bruise or swollen eyes. There is no way May could outbox Sanchez or even hold his attention for long. Sanchez by 8th round TKO.

Answer 3

This would have been a good fight, however, these two warriors primed in very diffferent weight classes. Floyd primed in junior lightweigh whereas Sanchez primed in featherweight. These classes may be close in weight, but a pound in boxing makes all the difference. Why do you think some fighters refuse to fight if it is made two pounds off of their usual limit? That's 2 pounds! Well, the answer is because they are not used to it. They will work differently, they will bloat differently(fighters usually bloat after the weigh-ins,) and they will fight differently.
Now, since Salvador and Floyd both primed in different weight calsses, we now have to consider a catch-weight fight. Let's say at 128. Floyd will now have to lose two more pounds, whereas, Sanchez will gain 2. You can now say that they are not fighting in their prime weight classes. They are equal now. Floyd may feel lighter and may have less pop in his gloves. Sanchez may feel quite heavier and maybe slow down a little.
The fight is on, say, in the Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas, Navada. The fight will be a 15-rounder. The referee is Richard Steele and the judges are the experienced Chuck Giampa, Dave Moretti, and Paul Smith. In the first few rounds, Floyd will box with Salvador while Sanchez opts to slug it out as he always has been. It's close. Floyd is landing pretty counterpunches with his slick defense, while Sanchez is holding his own as well, managing to land fearsome powershots. By the middle rounds, the two would have had several exchanges with Sanchez getting the best of most of them. Heading into the championship rounds, Floyd opts to frustrate Sanchez and uses his masterful combinations. I wouldn't be surprised if Floyd is floored, though. As the fight comes to a close, the scorecards read as follows: 116-113 Sanchez, 115-113, Mayweather, and 114-112, to the winner by split decision, Floyd Mayweather!
Floyd has great stamina. Sanchez has stamina but most of his fights ended by knockout, therefore he does not have much experience going the distance causing him to wane throughout the course of their fifteen-rounder. Sanchez cannot go the distance with a master boxer outside of his weight class, especially not of Pretty Boy's caliber.

Answer 4

Sanchez would have won. He was a brilliant counterpuncher and he had good power. Floyd has good skill and defense and he would have gave Sanchez a good fight, but i think Sanchez would have kept him on the defensive all night and worn Floyd down in the later rounds and cruised to a unanimous decision.

Answer 5

Wow, that would have been a great fight! However, I think that Sanchez would have taken it. Like the person before me said, he was a great counter-puncher who wasn't bothered by an opponent's fast hands. I think Wilfredo Gomez was like 32-0 with 32 KO's when he got knocked out by Sanchez.

Answer 6

Floyd probably by a hair. I think Salvador was a helluva fighter, but too often his greatness is often not put in proper perspective.It's one thing at 126, another at 130.Floyd proved himself a little more at the weight, so I'm going with him.

Answer 7
