    Thats the difference.

    Jack Johnson was in tons of brawls in his career as well. You can be defensively sound and still engage.

    The fact that he's so afraid to engage makes me question his defensive abilities. Maybe he's not too confident and knows he will get hit if he opens up.
    If a guy is barely hit. How can you question his defense? His oppoennt is always TRYING to land on him.

    He beats people by barely throwing punches. Its amazing to watch actually. He makes people beat themselves. Pure skill.

      Its easy to block punches when you don't open up yourself. The other guys you mentioned actually ENGAGED in combat.

      I wouldn't say he "beats" them.

      He does just enough to win on points. And you're surprised that MOST people don't like his fights?

      The guys a total disappointment. Why do you think he acts like an ******* on camera?

      Its to compensate for the lack of entertainment value in the ring.

      Thats pure Freud right there.

        Correct, it was said implying that it is such that floyd's style is so difficult that it could be considered an unfair disadvantage for his opponent. It wasn't meant to imply floyd was fighting unfairly.

        It's not fair that he's so good. He needs to suck some.

            Yeah, he obviously didn't mean it in a derogatory way.

              Why are people always crying on here about Floyd getting criticized? That's what he wants so who gives a fuck?

              And yes it's fair. A win is a win. Not like what he does is dirty.
