    that is very hard to do to someone so fast and that's such a great counter puncher... To beat him you have to have plans A-Z because of his ability to adjust so quickly... I can't even say what's the formula to beat him until someone actually beats him cuz IDK

        The answer is Paul Williams.

        Williams could beat Floyd, he has the style. Not saying he would just saying he could. No one at JWW-WW-JMW can beat Floyd, he could decision all of them.

          Be active, keep moving forward behind a fast strong job. Floyd counters most effective when he has his feet set. But obviously it's easier said than done.

            many ppl tried, but all failed. When they start getting countered, their activity drops down. Maybe they dont like whats coming back? He can keep his cool in the storm and stay right there to cash in at every mistake.

              ****---that's a sure loss then...basically to beat floyd---you will have to out-think him and i don't know anybody in boxing who can out-think this ****ing kid---you also have to have superhuman stamina and amazing ring generalship---basically i don't see anybody beating this dude....but paul williams may be his toughest competition--though he would still lose....

I think the key is to build up rounds on the scorecards so near the end of the fight Floyd would need to beat you, not the other way around like it always is.
                Oscar pressured...Castillo pressured..corrales pressured...Hatton pressure and many other....

                  and against juan--he showed how to avoid combinations and made juan lose his balance in the process---he is very versatile---he adapts to any style---i don't know who can beat him--he is human and can be beat--but no fighter in history would beat him easily--that's for damn sure---even sugar ray robinson would be in the toughest fight of his life fighting floyd--he's too crafty....

                    Yelp the only person that can beat him at welterweight (if he can actually make it now) is Paul Williams...
