    Anyway,

    This is from a thread I made on this topic.

    I see alot of the feather fist stuff. But when I watch his fights I dont see that at all.

    Floyds shots are so fast and accurate that most of the time they dont see them then he puts a little something behind them as well.

    At 147 against Judah he landed some of the nastiest and hardest body shots I ever seen him throw.

    At 147 vs. Hatton. I think it was the 8th round (correct me if Im wrong). But He threw a shot to Hattons stomach made Hatton crouch down then blasted him in the forhead and Hatton was hurt.

    He also hurt him to the body once then ofcourse the shots that ended the fight.

    Against Oscar he was nailing him with hard power shots and even buckled his legs. Mind you Oscar was 160 Pounds or more.

    After the fight Oscar said he had no idea how strong Floyd was and that he has deceptive power.

    Now with Shane. A guy who Floyd will catch whenever he feels like it. And he punches with his eyes closed on top of that. I see Floyd dropping him a few times.
    He is fast and accurate, he can hit most opponents at will and avoid damage I get that.

    If he was such a big puncher then why isn't his ko% much higher if he can so easily land flush shots on everyone?

    You are really reaching here suggesting that there is more than a slim chance of him stopping or even hurting SSM slightly.

    I am not even convinced like I said that he can make him cautious to come in but we will see.

      I think whne Mayweathers beats shane by wide UD on saturday, people will say that shane is shot and too old, but the fact of the matter is that shane is still p4p top 3. Just because floyd gives him a boxing clinic doesnt mean he is shot, just means that floyds skills are great

        imagine his ko percentage if he didnt get all the corner and doctor stoppages and only legit stoppages where the other guy was unable to continue due to being hurt not because of beign outclassed. it would be very low. floyd is and never was a big puncher just the truth. he is very accurate though.

        also remember calzagh has a very high ko percentage and it's not cause he hurts his opponents but cause of early stoppages and outclassing his opponents.

          I never said hes a big puncher. Im just saying he can punch. Him dropping Shane isnt out of the question. Who saw AA getting dropped? Who say Martinez getting dropped by Williams? Who saw Martinez dropping Williams? It happens.

            But Floyd would have to hit Mosley with multiple big shots he never saw coming, and do it a lot to put Mosley on the ground. When does Mayweather put people on the ground? JMM? Hatton? Come on.

            He may stun or surprise opponents with some punches but he doesn't drop them at these weights, let alone multiple times against a granite chin fighter like Shane.

              WOW, did u really just post him against Oscar? u gotta be kidding me lol , so should I post Pacquiao beqting the crap out of Oscar? I guess tht automatically means Pac ill beat Floyd right? Shane is much faster then Oscar, goes to the body better, had better foot and head movement(thx to ****m) and is willing to rough Floyd up, so stop posting videos of fight where boxer past there prime r getting beat by Floyd , this is hilarious

                4. Floyd has underrated power.

                5. Floyd has the best timing in boxing.

                6. Floyd is the most accurate in boxing.

                7. His counters are picture perfect.

                8. The punches you dont see are the ones that drop you.
                put some points on that!!...

                  Do you know you can do that for any fighter?

                  Do you know what term Technical Knock Out means?

                  He was a huge puncher in the lower weights. At WW ill say hes a good puncher hes not a feather fist.

                      I don't even think floyds hurt's mosley with his best shot. and even if he does buzz shane he won't dare risk and try to knock shane out.
