    Around 97% of Floyd's fight's were against dudes his size or smaller.
    The outliers include a Dela Hoya on his way out (SD win) and a green drained Canelo (MD win).

    Both these two are significantly way smaller, less skilled, less accomplished than Robinson.


    Robinson by KO.


    If Floyd hadn't ducked Williams, we might see some glimpses as to how he would operate against 6ft boxer dudes. Floyd don't take risks like that. Never

      Look up him vs sammy angott george cliff tony freddie valentine andy nonnels and tony ancona Dykes,same obsolete tech and flaws as the older one that fought gene/jake/joey and others

      Ray and this era look to be very overextending a lot of times to the body and are very hesitant in most movements. They don't fight from range much,they leave themselves open a lot of times, and a lot of times they will just throw to the body and not protect themselves. The Carlos era were able to protect the body with 1 hand while punching to the body. along with all the other advances in movement, along with being way smoother in movements the ray era They use mostly counters when up close. The lateral movement is very basic. They don't seem to be able to punch from range while doing it smoothly. They have to stop then punch most of the time. Their feet are mostly tiptoeing.
