i don't get this underrating bullsh!t... no one ever says he's a shi!tty body puncher.
You don't get alot of things homo........
no one praises his body work either.........do you get it now......
Lets look at Floyds recent fights or 147
And cmon, its Gatti
some great body work against Hatton and Judah......it depends on the fighter. Shane holds his left hand low at his waist....so ofcourse the faster Floyd was going to try to break with the left and land straight rights on his chin.
The jab to the solar plexus is Floyd's main body move....doesn't look damaging, but 3 or 4 every round and it will start taking the wind out of your sails. He alters this to a str8 right against southpaws.......something Freddie should look at, because it's a great time to throw a lead right hook (see Judah fight)
just re-watch the mayweather mosley fight, floyd taps shane to the body from the off.
He does good bodywork against SP's. See the Zab, Mitchell and Corley fights. His bodywork is the sneaky kind. He also did some great work on Hatton.
Most were jabs and but he did land a few good hard shots
Nothing immpresive IMO
I disagree they were impressive. Any bodyshot that has your opponent stepping back and rubbing his body with his elbow is impressive.
Someone posted some gifs a few pages ago. I will look for them and post them again in a reply.
I agree he can be a great body puncher but its becoming less and less with every fight
What i dont get is how TS could saw Floyd teeing off from the beginning of the Mosley fight when there was almost no body punching
I can't read the TS mind the thread title is appropriate. The TS first post might be a bit off though.
Some thing along the lines of "Floyd landed some devastating body shots against Mosley" might be more appropriate.
I agree with you that he didn't go to the body that much. However, the times that he did go to Mosley's body looked devastating. He had Mosley cringing a couple of times.

I argue with facts so im a hater?
Floyd landed 17 body punches in the Mosley fight 17. On the contrary mosley landed 42
Everything about Floyd is underrated, his power and his body punching, yet he doesnt use either. C
Can he be a good body puncher? Yes. but he doesnt go to the body

I know right! flomos act like people hate wifeebater because of his lack of boxing skills. nobody in their right mind would ever downplay wifebeater's skills. wifebeater get hate because he's a coward.
i don't believe there has ever been a fan base this insecure about their guy
its funny that u use this term very often, weren't u a "flomo" too just a year ago?
actually u insult yourself everytime u use the term "flomo" to insult others, sad that u aren't bright enough to realize this :D
I'm still in awe at the fact you took the title and have bought in to Mayweather being a body puncher, yet I'm the one being too literal.
i didn't bought that $hit theory that floyd is a body puncher...i was disputing it you idiot. it's you and your co-fanboys who bought the idea of the ts. the ts was very clear not just on his title but also his opening post...floyd is an underrated body puncher. you can try to spin it but that's what this thread is all about and you bought it not me. you're disgusting.
Nobody says he's an amazing body puncher.
cause he ain't. that would be overrating wifebeater... giving him credit for something he doesn't do, for example wifebeater can't get credit for beating cotto unless he actually beats cotto in the ring.
no one fights wifebeater and says to themselves, oh shiit better watch out for those bodyshots.
wifebeater's bodyshots are respectable, but nothing amazing.
They expect every aspect of Floyds game be be praised and sung about from the rooftops. We get it, he's an extremely talented, complete fighter, nobody is disputing this!!!

i'm done with you and your pathetic logic.

Keyword; underrated. I guess Margs is overrated using your logic, or are we being a bit literal?
Are we, or did you just come to this thread to bash because you want attention?

And I can tell you for a fact that nobody says, 'gee, that Mayweather is a great body puncher." If he's known for anything on the offensive end it's him being a counter-puncher. He's rarely acknowledged for his body work.
Thank you. Floyd does good bodywork when he chooses to but his defense and adjusting is his bread and butter. I like how they point to 2-3 fights as examples. Guys like Cotto or JCC have 20+ fights that show their bodywork.
yeah nobody is saying that he can't be a good body puncher...he can if he chooses to but he's not. he's very good at what he do and it's more than enough to win fights so he probably doesn't feel the need to be a body puncher. but his fanboys want to portray him as something he is not. and if you go against their theory they become emotional like their lives are connected to floyd.
