I thought that was the best Floyd's body ever looked. Obviously he was bigger then ever but he even carried it more well this fight. He looked wide, had big arms, and it had no negative effect on him. He still had his speed and seemed to have more pop then he's had at 147. I think those small gloves helped also. Thats why I was a little dissapointed in Floyd. I personally still thought Oscar tried hard as hell and did everything he could while Floyd just cruised. To me it looked like Floyd couldve killed him if he let his hands go. I thought he arguably looked like he had more power then Oscar. When Floyd was blocking Oscar's punche he would just stand there and take it but when Floyd threw a straight right that Oscar would block, there were alot of times where Oscar took a step back "after" the punch. He knocked Oscar off his base alot of times with that punch, even when he clearly blocked it.
I didnt get to watch all the 24/7's so I dont know if Floyd did anything special for this fight or got a fitness trainer but I thought he looked very solid. Way bigger then he even looked at 147 despite him being basically the same size. I think if he goes back down now then he will be a full blown WW and if he stays Offensive like he does in half his fights then he will phyiscally shock alot of guys. I would love to see him keep those reyes gloves also. I doubt it since he said he hurt his hand again but I think they certainly help your power. Again, in the Oscar fight I honestly believed Floyd was worried. I think he was wondering if he could carry his speed and have any power but more importantly he wondered would Oscar be this big freak who punched like a truck and was really strong. Even his dad was telling him in camp to watch out for Oscar's power and really respect it. I think that put Floyd in a respect mode that he didnt need to be in. You could see that as the fight went on he felt that the size wasnt nothing special and that he had just as much strength and power as Oscar despite being outweighed by 20 pounds. In a rematch he would show him alot less respect and at 147 I think he will be a monster now
