    I don't know. Knocking out Hatton was a little more than enough to win.
    Floyd can sit in the pocket and work on guys all day. And he's done that for most of his career unless you just watched parts of the dlh fight and that's oit.

    He was killing people at lightweight, then moved up and battered N'Dou and Gatti.
    I see him as doing a lot of different things. We've seen his ko's we've seen his decision victories.
    It really is a matter of choice.

    Personally, I think they are both good at the styles they represent.

        Still weird how you say he doesn't (Engage or Love Taps) Those right straights he landed on Baldy would have dropped most WW's right now. Thats a fact. Besides B-Hop...who else was able to hurt DLH? Zab took a beating and Hatton got F'd up. Gatti got ****d! JLC got busted up I and II and Chico got dropped so many times I lost count. Deevel79...I seriously think you have a hate for Floyd...One that not even YOU knows about.

          That crazy bastard Chico (god rest his soul) was still pissed at them stopping the fight after he went down 5 times.

          A warrior for sure.

              That is why I say he has the most HEART. No fighter has as much HEART as Chico. Clottey was beating the crap out of him and yet he still continued.

                Yes preference. Weird how as soon as I said Floyd was more entertaining everyone popped out they're heads like a bunch of meerkats. Its obvious that THE BRAWLER is more loved these days

                  Sounds like u might try watchin MMgay. If you can't appreciate Floyd and his displays of technical mastery don't bother with boxing.

                  but Manny vs Oscar will be more exciting 'cause we're gonna see lil Manny get sent airborne by Oscar's punches. Manny will launch like a scud missile.

                    Pacquiao is more than just a brawler. He has some excellent offensive boxing ability - his attack is systematic and utilizes skill, not just aggression.

                      It will be more exciting, who doesn't like to see a KO from a devastating left hook early on to the skinny mans body.
