He simply doesn't want to risk his hands and I don't blame him. Like Hatton said he's stronger than he looks.
    underrated?....****,a ww beating a lw at ww and gets rated # 2 p4p to me is overrated....

        He put Hatton down for the first time ever... I wouldn't say he is feather fisterd... He for sure doesn't have great power, but feather fisted... Come on..

        I don't think he punches enough, or throws enough power punches/haymakers to show us what he has.

          Are you ******... Go suck manny's ****.. You have for sure proven how dumb you are. First you give me Bad K for saying manny needs a few more big fight's to be considered a ATG, then you disregard this guy's post... He said his power is underrated, not him idiot.

              Floyd's got plenty of pop. He's capable of taking out WW's, he just needs to fight more careful against them so he doesn't let his hands go as much.
              I'm capable of running a hundred miles an hour.. I just go the speed limit because I don't want to violate the law.

                I disagree with the statement slightly.
                he had pop in the lower weight classes.. none at welter though.
                he can't take out a legit welterweight.

                  What's your point? I never said he had great power, read my whole post before commenting please.

                    He isn't notably weak, but when you compare it to others in the division, he isn't particularly a heavy hitter. He's "just okay" as far as power-punching goes. Not too weak, not too strong.

                      So you think Floyd fights the same now as he did at the lower weights?

                      He fights more careful cause of his hands and because he's more weary of getting hit by bigger guys and bigger punchers. That doesn't mean he's feather fisted.
