      I think the only way Floyd loses at this point in his career is if he would try to go any higher than 154. Otherwise, with age he'll lose some of that elusiveness as we've seen with all tactical fighters.
      I think that might be the case. If he doesn't retire the only way he could get beat is if he ages or moves to high up in weight. The only possible way it seems would be able to match him speed and with that outwork him. IMO there really isn't anybody that can with maybe the acception of Mosely, but even Mosely at his age now may not be fast enough.

        Apply pressure and work the body, esp in the early rounds. Cut off the ring and back him up against the ropes so he can't move as much. Basicly what Oscar did, actually. Just more of it and do it better lol.

                  I know that's what I keep thinking reading some of the posts in this forum about "what Oscar did". Hey that's it, just do what Oscar did - only better! Oscar's one of the best fighters in the world, we going to have Floyd v.s. some super alien boxer?

                      At 147 + guys like that as well as someone like Clottey would give Floyd all kinds of problems. You just have to be willing to walk through his punches and not look for an opening, just **** him on his arms and go to the body. I don't even think Oscar fought that good of a fight and people had that one close just because of Oscars pressure.
