Hands always up. Everything starts with the jab, decent left hand behind it, right hook to the body when fighting in close, good movement when he wanted to use it (Taylor 12th round).

Can anyone disagree?
Most certainly not. He's definitely up there with Floyd, Hopkins and Calderon.

I don't get how everyone keeps saying Mayweather.
That guy goes rounds without jabbing. That is clearly not the textbook way to fight. Like Jones, he is better than the textbook... he can break the rules and take shortcuts because of his athleticism.
Hopkins was not very jab oriented either...
Calderon makes sense here.
Perhaps Cory Spinks? Slick as hell, and 100% dependent on his jab.
Kessler, Pavlik, Forrest, etc. all were very fundamentally sound.

Floyd may have athleticism but he has excellent fundamentals, he's almost a cross of RJJ and Hopkins
