Floyd is about 30 years younger than Ali and is still in training. Regardless of the size advantage Ali has ,parkinsions ,time and age has overcame all of his attributes.
Floyd would maximize his speed and youth and Ali would probably not beable to land a single punch due to his feeble state and would be countered with clean blows as long as the fight lasts.
Floyd Mayweather by 2 round TKO.
if both are in the same weight snd era...
ali matches floyds speed and skill... its just that ali can take floyds punches while floyd cant, he'll ends up kissing the canvas... mot to mention alis a 15 rounder, his stamina can sustain a kind of work rate floyd never experienced before

Sweet Science fans,
Preface:
Per ESPN, Jan 19th 2014:
A PRIME Ali (think fleet-footed 'Clay' days) is 25 yrs. old in 2014 and Don King has managed to create the wildest boxing card in history as ONLY Mr. King can!
New York Times, February 12th, 2014:
Don quietly works his magic and Floyd's camp agrees to fight the 25 yr. old Ali even though he is far out of the weight/height range, because of one condition: If Floyd wins he takes 100% of the proverbial pot! If he loses, he gets 80% of the earnings simply BECAUSE the bout puts him in the wrong division!
Ali's camp releases a public statement: 'Floyd wants to dance in the ring with me? That little [p[u[n[k[!?' 'Don wants this but he agreed to sign his John Hancock on the line!' (rumor has it that Ali's camp will donate all his earnings to a charity)
