Pot-shottin' is usually good enough when you're as talented as Floyd. But, there's gonna be a time if Floyd chooses to fight some more after 9/19. That his opponent is gonna be puttin' some serious heat on him and he has no choice but to f**kin' trade punches throughout the fight!
Example is Ali: We've all seen alot of Clay/Ali fights get replayed on our favorite sportschannel. When he fought guys 2-3 levels below him, we all kind of saw the same thing, he'd stick and move and move some more.
But, Ali did not have this luxury when he faced Frazier all three times, he couldn't just jab and move the whole time. Frazier was bringing it to him all three times and Ali had to match Smokin' Joe's pace and did great.
Diggin' down and having to fight the entire 12 rounds, Floyd has not experienced. We'll see.
And yes, I agree with the author, I too could careless how and what Floyd does outside of the ring, but there are millions of people that do pay attention to how a public figure behaves outside of his profession.
