first off, i have to give floyd mad props for how he handled the fight, after getting popped real good in the second round, he changed gears and took control of the fight, not only that but he made mosley fight his fight and manned up big time.
now with that being said, i think floyd has become the master of the bump and punch. each time they got in close floyd from his defensive position would close the gap with mosley, bump into him and from the bump/push off he would crack mosley with a chopping shot, he did it with right and left hands.
it was very effective and floyd was masterful with it because mosley knew that it was happening but couldn't get out of the way of the shots. props to floyd.
normally guys get used to the pattern and you could see mosley was trying to be aware of it but floyd bump and punch was too sharp and too fast, and i think it is something that would give pacquiao a hard hard time.
i am very critical of floyd, but that was a great display of technique last night, and i think it's something that poses the biggest threat to anyone of his opponents because floyd will use that til someone can get out of the way of it or figure out how to handle it.
what do yall think about that?
i was at the fight and after the 3rd round, i was saying that was his bread and butter, my friends were like what are you talking about, then after the 8th they said that is all they could see and how accurate he was with it.
like i said, i am a big critic of floyd, but that was something special and to be able to pull it off with ease against mosley is something to be remarked about.

I love that move. Hes the only guy with hands and reflexes fast enough to pull it off like that.
