What are some glaring faults in your fav fighters?

I'm gonna say Floyd, he had no power. Oscar de la Hoya in his book said his plan c for money may was to have him break his hand against Oscars noggin. Also look at the catchweight with jmm. He instinctively needed a power and size advantage against the mini Marquez. Also he couldn't turn off Ortiz's lights after a free one two combo. Then what really stands out was his lack of punching power against the Paul brother. Canelo and Manny both verbalized they were embarrassed by losing to Floyd. For PAC, it was roach citing his embarrassment and lusting of a rematch. Lately Canelo has been saying Floyd fights only those who are past their prime or before it. And that he would beat him prime for prime.

In his 4th and 5th weight class he wasn’t a hard puncher, no.

There’s only a few examples were that isn’t the case.

Don't really have one, but I have been watching some Andre Ward fights recently online

The more I watch him, the more I realize that he's really solid in every area of boxing. But he's not an expert or special in any single facet of the game

In this case, his strength is his flaw. The LHW and SMW division never really had anyone special when Ward fought to bring out this flaw. But, if he fought in the 90's, I'm sure he'll have a loss or two on his resume. Imo, i can't imagine him beating RJJ or anything. Ward doesn't really have an x-factor in his overall arsenal

Though, Ward's a really solid fighter overall, so don't mean to bash. It's good to watch fighters that are solid in all facets of the game

Ricky Hatton.

Lacks intelligence. I've a feeling he'd have been more successful if he relocated after the Tszyu win and went to train with Freddie Roach or something like that. Instead he got big headed and lazy inside and outside of the ring.

Derry Mathews: Brave and strong but outgunned on technical aspects as well as processing information
Sergio Martinez: bad balance
Julio Cesar Martinez: Maybe gets hit a little too clean for my liking
Robert Guerrero: Slow slow slow
Luis Alberto Lopez: Super unorthodox
Virgil Ortiz: Needs to switch up his power, keep opponents guessing
Badou Jack: Super slow starter, not as good as defensively as he thinks he is
Oleksandr Uysk: Needs a bit more pop to his punches
Artur Beterbiev: Needs to fight more
Joe Smith: Has no X factor, needs to be able to step on the gas pedal
Erislandy Lara: Old
Roman Gonzalez: Old
Guillermo Rigondueax: Old
Israil Madrimov: Not experienced enough
Jose Zepeda: A little inconsistent
Gervontae Davis: A little inconsistent
Sergiy Kovalev: Vodka liver
Sebastian Fundora: It's like creating a video game character and putting all your points into height
Jarell Miller: It's like creating a video game character and putting all your points into weight;

I believe roach said after the Manny fight about Hatton that for someone who was supposed to be a great fighter, he wasn't that great. Conceeding a cherry pick. Also Hatton was unrefined, rough house tactics, like popping the piston jab while leaping in with his feet (it looked pretty cool against Malignaggi) and also to his own admission upon hearing "break" we wouldn't take a step back instead step to the side to create more (rough housing) angles.

That's quite the list. I appreciate your IQ
