Who can Beat Floyd?? Not Brawlers

[Silencers]

But he is very Inaccurate.. he wastes lots of Punches.. Accuracy is going to be needed to beat Floyd..

He uses his jab a lot and one thing that I noticed, particularly in the DLH fight, is that Floyd doesn't liked to be jabbed at. And I totally forgot about Vernon Forrest. Good answer xzworks.

boxers who got quickness,speed and power can beat mayweather.

quickness and speed are the SAME thing.. LOL Speed and power are nothing without timing and accuracy..

Work rate and height haven't worked in the past... Is Paul Williams special???

Are you trying to compare Paul Williams to any fighter Floyd has faced in the past? He has a big enough size advantage combined with his work rate to make the fight interesting.

Floyd should never fight another "come forward pressure fighter" again...he will pick them off and never get respect

Cotto is the top dog in the welterweight division besides Floyd. They need to fight.

This is a good point.. It's also a south paw jab.. The potential is there on that one...

Coralles was 6 feet tall... And Fought at a very busy pace...

Nor Come forward pressure fighters..

I think that has been proven by now.. SO sending in Cotto is just going to be more of the same..

It's going to take someone special.. Someone as fast.. someone as smart.. and someone as Accurate... With some serious POP..

Zab Judah could have been THAT man.. but he is a mental midget.. Is there anyone out there with Zab's Skill set.. and some mental Fortitude??

I dont think so...

i take it you didn't see the mosley fight. if you had, you'd know that cotto is more finesse than you give him credit for.

I posted about this in another thread, PW is tall lanky incredible wingspan, great workrate and the kicker is a southpaw. Floyd has some difficult with southpaws as do most fighters because he is not as used to them. The angle to punch them differs as well as the angle they punch from.

In recent memory he has been legitimately hurt by a southpaw (Corley rd. 4 I believe) Mitchell tagged him a few times as did Judah (some people felt that Judah should have been credited with a knockdown early in that fight when Floyd touched the canvas with his glove. Paul Williams will never get a chance to fight floyd even if they offered him 50mil. LOL Just kidding everybody has a price but you get my drift.

Cotto is My 3rd favorite fighter.. I have never said a bad word about the man in life.. and NEVER bet against him.. I would if he were to face Mayweather..Who I am not a fan of..

I know my Objectivity is something people aren't used to..

So far I am Thinking the paul williams argument is good.. as is the guy who mentoined Vernon Forrest.. Forrest has the accuracy.. That Willaims has Yet to show and accuarcy is a must...

If he changes bits of his style. He gets drawn in too easily but if he learns to use his height and reach to more of his advantage including his workrate then he doesn't need to be special. What would really help him is if he kidnapped Tommy Hearns and got Hearns to tell him the secret of his straight right.
