Why do Floyds opponents always try to pressure him?

pretty much like everyone said... there's no one that can outbox him, so you have to pressure him which is actually bad to cause of his counter punching ability.... Very hard guy to figure out and beat

I thanks because he boxes very well, but unlike a Margarito, JESUS CHAVEZ OR Castillio YOU HAVE TO HAVE A GOOD CHIN and be physically fit. I do thank Margarito would have had better success against Floyd than he did against Mosley though I thank he still would have lost.

I hope Marquez doesnt do this, he should put all the pressure on Floyd to make the fight since it is his return bout. Let the fans boo and force Floyd move forward. I think its because guys like Castillo and Hatton can only fight that way and Corrales was not exactly a counter puncher off the back foot despite his reach. If those guys fought him in centre ring they would get mullered. I agree Marquez would be better served making Floyd take the lead though.

I was JUST about to say that. Gatti tried to box and......yea. I think it should be smart pressure based behind a shitload of jabs. A SHITLOAD of jabs. Yeah, that would be smart. You can't just stay boxing against Floyd because the man can and will adjust. You have t switch it up, Corley stunned him with a couple counter punches. I have a mental picture in my mind on how JMM will put pressure. Which is putting pressure on him and making him back up, but at the same time making Mayweather lead so he can counter. That would be a great tactic, if he can do that. Ricky Hatton did it, but he had no defense to make Floyd miss the lead right and counter.

haha @ the argument "Well Gatti tried to box him." Gattis only prayer in that fight was to shoot Floyd. It made no sense why he would try to box, I think he figured he would survive longer via the boxing.

I hope Marquez doesnt do this, he should put all the pressure on Floyd to make the fight since it is his return bout. Let the fans boo and force Floyd move forward. Floyd is too strong and too fast for him, will hit him straight thru his guard.

I was JUST about to say that. Gatti tried to box and......yea. I think it should be smart pressure based behind a shitload of jabs. A SHITLOAD of jabs. And those jabs will be countered with may rights

this. if you don't pressure him, he will pull a gatti I was JUST about to say that. Gatti tried to box and......yea. I think it should be smart pressure based behind a shitload of jabs. A SHITLOAD of jabs.

Because you can't outbox Floyd. Maybe someone should at least try. Marquez is a boxer counterpuncher, thats his forte so why would it suit him to change his game to a pressure fighter.

Good luck....

Because you can't outbox Floyd. this. if you don't pressure him, he will pull a gatti
