Mayweather lets his hnds go when the fighter is/at his size.

[Texanballer]

Your point???

Is Vitali a quick, slick, fast defensive minded counter puncher or a guy who knocked everyone hes fought sans one person?


???????????????

Someone as quick slick and fast as Mayweather should not be out thrown by a "robotic" heavyweight. Most people on here call Vitali slow.

So Mayweather has to throw more pucnhes then Vitali???

Why?

What does it matter?

Floyd won every round....barely throwing according to you.

JMM was significantly smaller and he didn't throw more than a 2 punch combination

It matters because you said he lets his hands go against men his size, Marquez was smaller.

look at that amazing list of names, floyd is truly a great fighter who fights the best!

one thing though, jmm isnt the same size as floyd, jmm is actually bigger than him. what are you thinking?

JMM was only 4 pounds lighter, please. The 4 pounds theory already installed works

Judah
Mitchell
Gatti
Hatton
Castillo
Ndou
JMM

Against fighters way bigger then him he doesnt let his hands go:

Oscar
Baldimir





So add Pac to the list...Floyd is letting his hands go..and everytime he does its fightening.

Ask Hatton when Floyd start letting his hands go.

Not true...Corrales and Ndou were much bigger than him, and he still went toe to toe and landed combos. Floyd basically when he feels he can ko an opponent he goes for it, If he feels he cannot, he plays safer.

Height plays a role in it too...against taller guys he doesnt usually stay in the outside, he slips punches with his waist movement to get in the pocket where the opponent's long arms are ineffective.

Against Baldo he broke both his hands...thats why he didnt let his hands go...if his hands were sound i think he would have Gattied him as Baldy was too slow and flat footed for him.

JMM may be smaller, but hes tough as nails, never been KOed. If you were him, would you risk a fight with Pacquiao by trying to KO a tough opponent and maybe breaking the right hand in the process? He cant afford an injury like that and lose the opportunity to be in the biggest fight of these times. Why he stayed retired? To let his hands heal.

BWAAHAAAHAHAHHAAHHAH!

floyd potshotted against castillo, hatton, and jmm.

he only let his hands go against hatton when hatton got hurt.

gatti got smashed by baldomir... mitchell get beat up by pwill. and cotto smashed judah. nothing overly impressive about those wins.

[Ryn0]

Yes he did....

It wasnt 6-7 combos....

But I dont recall JMM hitting Floyd..Floyd just hit him with no fear....and it was first fight back in 2 years for christ sakes.

I didn't say JMM hit him, but Floyd sure as hell didn't let his hands go.

He was dictating the pace with 1-2 shots at a time. Rarely would be open up for a combo.
