Doug Fischer: "Floyd doesn't have the size and range as Winky or Forrest"

[F l i c k e r]

Cotto didn't have the reach of Winky or Forrest. He doesn't even have the reach of Mayweather.


So what does that mean for Shane when he is going up against a guy who probably has a more effective jab than even Winky?

[Walt Liquor]

Then again Cotto is 5'7 with a 67 reach. Mayweather is 5'8 with a 72 reach. Although Cotto is bigger then Floyd.

the article has nothing to do with COtto!!! please read the letter he was responding to that I posted. Floyd huggers are so blinded by their sensitivity that they rarely give other opinions a fair shot by thoroughly examining them. Doug was answering a SPECIFIC question that the TS conveniently forgot to include.

WTF Flicker seriously, WTF?????

So you are saying that Floyd has a more effective jab than Winky now?

I said probably not is.


Floyd goes up and down which makes it effective. The best, no, effective? Yes. It does what Floyd wants it to do. So it is effective. lol

There are many areas where Floyd is better than Winky. Jabbing isnt one of them.

Bookmark it in case he changes his mind after the fight.

For me his fight has to do with foot movement and nothing else.

I see them as relatively even in most other categories.

Mosley strikes me as the kind of guy that cannot punch on the move. If you stand still, he'll **** you out.

But when it comes to punching with power while moving laterally and chasing after a guy, I don't know if he's got that kind of agility.

Castillo was great at this, which is why he beat Floyd in the first fight.

If Shane can be effective while punching on the move, he can win and win big.

Otherwise, Floyd will run and potshot him all night.

lol, I didn't say it was better than Winky's. I said probably and I said effective not just all out the best. Floyd's jab does what he wants it to do and it doesn't fail. So it is effective. Ya know?

Go ahead. I dont change my mind like fickle people. I'm about as consistent as they come. And I can admitt when I'm wrong. So again, go ahead.

i gotta agree that floyd doesn't fight like winky or forrest, but he presents his own challenges and problems.
