    Remember when Floyd used to throw combinations?

    I struggled to see him throw more than 1 or 2 punches during that entire fight. Seriously, what happened to him?

    He's been fighting 1 punch at a time for a lng time now.

    He adjusted after moving up in weight.

        He doesn't take unneccasry risks, throwing punches means there are oppotunities to be hit.

        Marquez is a counter puncher so it suited Mayweather to throw one at a time, but against other welterweights he doesn't want to be hit because they hit HARD so he gives them less opportunities to hit him.

          His Combos arent as quick anymore, he doesn't use them as much in his fights and looks he isn't training on 'em much either.

          Hell, at 175 Jones combinations look faster

            Floyd fans misconstrue Floyd's lack of balls for the sweet science,lol.

            If I were the sweet science I'd feel insulted to be attached with Floyd's name.

            Archie Moore, Sugar Ray Robinson are probably shaking their heads in disgust with this punk Floyd.

              That's the whole problem right there, Mangler. It took him 8-9 rounds to put a decent combo together, against a guy who used his face as his offense and defense, lol.

              PAC started putting combos together as soon as the 1st round began.
