I think Jake would've given Mayweather hell.

Jake would have killed him. Those were the good days when they were actually fighters. Sugar Ray would have as well, Mayweather would be KO in the first round.

Yes, thank you. Mayweather had the nerve to say he was better than Sugar Ray Robinson. Sugar Ray would've killed him. And as for Jake, if Jose Luis Castillo gave Mayweather trouble and Marcos Maidana gave him trouble, Jake would kill him. He was better than both those guys. Tony Zale would beat Mayweather too. Rocky Graziano, I'm not sure. He had a great right hand. When he fought Sugar Ray he was over the hill.

LaMotta would beat Mayweather, although it's not the fairest matchup to put the WW Floyd in there with a MW. Yeah, Ray Robinson did it, but that's SRR. One of the reasons why SRR is the consensus #1 all time.

Street fight instead of boxing match totally goes to the MMA fighters with their more well rounded martial arts ability and wrestling/grappling technique.

I mean can any boxer win a street fight against Roy Gracie or another of the Gracie JuJitsu clan? Maybe Tyson if he gets a lucky punch in but with perfect planning a master of Brazillian Ju Jitsu can own a boxer.
