    So sick of people claiming that Floyd Runs all the time!!

    Lets look at Floyd's career a bit, 130 to 140 should not be even looked at because I can't remember a fight at those weight classes where May was not in right in there with his opposition. At 147,

    Sharmba Mitchel:fought him straight up and won by K.O

    Zab Judah:fought him straight up, hunted him down and if it was not for that terrible foul would have KO'd Zab.

    Carlos Baldimir: Now this was a counterpunching, backing up game. In other words yeah he was running. But it was to a guy that was ironed chinned, and old brittle handed Floyd new he couldn't K.O Baldi.

    Oscar De La Hoya: At 154 in a weight class that Oscar was at home with. Oscar was only knocked out with a body shot ever!!! Floyd did "run" by counterpunching his was to a victory.

    Ricky Hatton: Fought backing up, eventually used Ricky's aggression against him. K.O

    Juan Manuel Marquez: One sided whooping, mixed it up was the aggressor at times and also countered a counterpuncher.

    Please be fair Floyd haters and stop saying he runs unless you can give proof of more than two fights. 2/40 is a spec in a great boxing career!!!!

      My fav Floyd fights: Corley, Ndou, Burton and Corrales.
      I agree that the Marquez fight shouldnt of happened, what was the point?

            Everyone runs, it's just that floyd never stops running. He should have joined as a marathoner not a boxer.

              Thats his style.... I would call it movement.. not running.. What you want him to do? Stand in the middle and trade? Thats just too dangerous.

                you must understand the root cause of the haters logic..
                most of them dont know **** about the mechanics of boxing as an ART. they only like to see slug fests blood and swelling.
                when floyd hits you then makes you miss your counter they say he ran because he didnt let his opponent hit him back.
                i dont see how you can equate master defense with "running", its called smart boxing.
                attention deficit disorder wont allow them to see the art or just blatant hate causes them to turn blind eye and make bull**** statements that clearly are not true.

                  Pbf don't run, he's using great footwork n ring generalship, if while he's backin up he sees an opening he'll attack..running is wat cotto was doin end of the PAC fight, no disrespect to cotto tho he was a warrior to the end

                    Floyd Mayweather Jr. : "What's the point of slugging it out there I've been paid already, money man only needs to run, and slip some punch just to make it look like boxing."
