    The point is that he can be hurt. People feel he can't get hit!!!

      Look who's talking.

      You got chills up your spine just by hearing Vlad's entrance music.

      You think sloppy Joe is an ATG.

      Now THAT is some serious nutthugging.

        That fact that you're jumping up and down over a punch Corley landed over 5 years ago only proves how good Floyd's defense is.

          You still miss the point dummy! He get hit easier by south paws. The shoulder roll defence don't work on south paws as a matter of fact that defence is dangerous against south paws. Why you think he stop doing it against Zab Judah after he got caught. Look at the fight again.

            This particular fight makes me wonder how Pacquiao would do with that straight left he throws. Floyd's always shown a bit of vulnerability against southpaws (Judah, Corley specifically) who like to throw that lead left.

            There's another video later on in the fight where Corley actually gets Floyd really stunned against the ropes. To this day that's the most hurt I've ever seen Floyd.

              I don't know why every1 gets their **** hard over this fight...as if Floyd hasn't improved since then...and secondly that fight was one of the few where Floyd traded a lot. He was bound to get hit.

              Yes southpaws may give Floyd trouble but he makes adjustments to how they're fighting. Zab won the first 3 rounds or so against him and he switched his guard up and Zab started getting spanked.

              Corley hurt Floyd once...but Corley was knocked down twice and was dominated...

                The winner between floyd and Pac will be whoever can make the right adjustments as the fight goes on.

                    Man too bad Floyd doesn't fight like this more often because he would be one; a more entertaining fighter, bigger draw and would have a higher KO to win Ratio and he would still be underfeated.
