Do you still think "size means nothing" in a fight?

    Prime Tommy Hearns at 160 walk around weight will kill some NFL dude at 230.

    Floyd just had and always had glass hands
    and this information came from where? floyd himself. the liar. the conman. i want to knockout people but my hands hurt! oh and other boxer's hands dont hurt when they punch people? conmen get people to believe totally normal activity/behavior is somehow super special since they are doing it. this only happens to me folks!

        Charley Burley at 150lb’s beat the sht out of and tko’d a 6’2 or somesht 220lb bum boxer in 6rd’s. If Floyd couldn’t stop a 180lb bum boxer to says more about him. Tyson stopped scaff who had about 40+lb’s on him in a 1rd. And both these victims had had wins on their records.

            How old was Burley?

              I was saying throughout the entire build up of the fight that Mayweather will struggle to hurt this guy, let alone KO him. But the elitist boxing fans were arguing how Floyd's skills will be too much for Paul. It was nothing lol, Paul pretty much just wrestled his way through 8 rounds like nothing. Floyd could not really do anything because he was too big. The hardest punch of the fight was landed by Paul actually.

              That is why they made weight classes. Because some pro boxer who weighs 190lbs but sucks vs anyone his size, is absolutely still capable of decapitating some 154lb Jr middleweight. Logan doesn't have much skills, just skilled enough with his very little training.

              This is also why journalists/boxing media unfairly leave Heavyweights out of the P4P list. Tyson Fury is stylistically one of the toughest boxers P4P. It is very difficult to look good vs Fury. But it's okay to have Usyk there at #4 P4P, because he came up from CW. But not Fury, who would probably clearly beat Usyk if they fight. Because he is stylistically better and more versatile.

              But yeah, all that fight showed was why there's weight classes. Yes, there's "levels" to boxing. But size matters. And size can trump "skills" and "levels".
              Lol. Wilder is the true pfp king. Even ko’d a few guys weighing 100lb’s-200lb’s more than him.

                I dunno, but the guy was a boxer and had plenty of actual fights.

                  Prime Manny would have KO'd Logan and he's even smaller than Floyd, so no.

                    Sorry manlets, size matters.
                    You seem to be obsessed with size.

                    But Canelo disagrees with you he’s only 5’8” and he’s fuxking up dudes who are 6’4 etc lol

                    Also 5’6” Manny fuxxked up 5’11” Marg and DLH.

                    But if you’re Floyd then yes size does matter because he was never a fighter he’s been a tag artist his whole life.

                      it's not size alone, it's Floyd's pillow fists. He even lands sort of sideways now, slaps.

                      I bet Donaire lands his left hook and the Paul brothers go to sleep.
