    We all know Floyd isn't a huge puncher...who cares? He is a cummulative puncher.

    Ali was the same way...anyone want to argue over him too?

      stop using this excuse!!!! floyd can't even make 144 lbs! he's a ****in true blue WW now!


      cotto can't beat floyd. only mosley and pwill can.



      clottey can't beat floyd... clottey is not active enough.
      talk what you know, man. Zab has been said that he cant make 140 anymore but does that stop him from looking like a little boy at WW. Floyd fights at his walk around weight. Im telling you that if you saw Floyd's presser after the fight with him & Shane side by side then you would think different. Shane was clearly the much bigger man. Thats why I keep saying that I think Shane and others look at Floyd and just think that they would break him in half if they punch him. Thats why they all want to fight him. Dont be fooled by the JMM fight. I bet anything that if he gets into the ring with Shane, Cotto, or whowever, then you will see a very clear difference in size

        I think Floyd does have more power than people think but he just doesnt commit to his shots anymore. His mindset in that matter has totaly changed and he's not going to load up on any punch and if he did load up then it would just be one punch with nothing following it. However, I dont think his team cares about that much. He still has enough pop & skills to hurt anyone or snap your head back. The problem for him is on the other end. Does he have the size & mindset to keep someone off him and let his hands go. Thats the question. If he wanted to then those guys have no chance of beating him but I dont know if he's mentaly tough enough in that regard to just take risk and let his hands go.

          what? zab was ripped at 147 lbs and he was knocking out real WWs. the problem with zab is not weight... its that he's an idiot.

          Floyd fights at his walk around weight.
          yep... anywhere around 154-160 lbs.

          Im telling you that if you saw Floyd's presser after the fight with him & Shane side by side then you would think different.
          they looked the same size

          Shane was clearly the much bigger man.
          but both are WWs.

          Thats why I keep saying that I think Shane and others look at Floyd and just think that they would break him in half if they punch him. Thats why they all want to fight him.
          nope, they want to fight floyd because he's a payday and considered the best around... also, he's a WW and WWs should fight other WWs.

          I don't think so. I think floyd bulked up a little bit because he knew he'd have to fight shane and/or cotto next.
