    Floyd wasnt even running in the DLH fight. I have no idea where that started. He won the fight in the pocket. If he ran he would have lost.

      Oh and by the way, he stalked Zab 5th round on..Zab was after Gatti...he danced on baldimor and stood toe to toe with DLH for at least half the rounds in the fight..including the 12th after the fight was already won..

        How did De la Hoya win the 12th round on 2 of the 3 score cards?

          I've watched that round about 5 times.....each time I walked away feeling like DLH won that round.DLH was all over him for the first 30 seconds.....Floyd daned around and did little most of the round with the exception of landing that one big right and DLH swarmed him the last 30 seconds.......it was rather easy to give to DLH if you ask me.

            We should be smart enough to know that he's using his technical advantage and his foot-skills to stay out of trouble.
            Obviously many people here still don't know the difference. You yourself just called Mayweather a runner...

              He reminds me of a small Mathew Barney.

              Do your roadwork before the fight.

                  yes, he is a runner.

                      No. I said he was commonly considered to be a runner. I also said that Calzaghe was commonly considered to be a slapper and Hatton commonly considered to be a hugger, though I personally dont necessarily believe any of the cases to be as black and white as that.

                      If I ever call PBF a runner its completely and utterly in response to you unfairly chiding Hatton and Calzaghe for their 'faults'.
