It's come to the point where people should start respecting what we're seeing, because it's gonna be a long long time before we see something like Floyd again. Not just his boxing skills, but his committment, his heart, passion and dedication for the sport. Has there EVER been a more dedicated fighter? Seriously? He eats, sleeps, trains boxing. He just loves the ****in sport.
We've all been quick to jump on his back because of his mouth runnin', but the guy walks the walk as well as talk the talk. As Oscar said last night, Floyd knows how to get into the opponents head. Opponents who are usually calm as a whistle. He makes them angry, works them up, so when they get in the ring, they just wanna blow his head off and make mistakes. EVERY fighter who gets in the ring with Floyd gets caught up in the occassion. They get nervous, they worry and panic, become 'jittery' as Sr said. They're so nervous fighting Floyd because they know how good he is, as the commentator said last night, the're scared to throw a punch because they know they probably gonna get hit back, they facing one of the best counter pounchers ever.
Floyds intelligent, smart and powerful. Every fighter understimates Floyd, thinking they can rough him up and over power him. These mo'****ers don't realise Floyds tough at that game too, he'll stand toe to toe and fight you, but his corner won't let him, they'll always say 'outBOX him'.
We've had a go at him for ducking and diving, but honestly if he fought Cotto a few years back would Cotto beat him? The same Cotto who has literally no defense, leaves his chin out to dry, arms low. Would Margarito have won? He may be a big hitter but he rushes in and can be opened up easily. No they wouldn't. Fact is everyone wants Floyd to lose so badly just to shut him up, but you gotta realise they can't.
I'm sorry, I'm a big Manny fan as well as Floyd fan, but Floyd would totally outbox him just like he done with all the other fighters. I can predict the fight:
First few rounds- Manny lands a few big shots, everyone gets excited. Floyd ain't adjusted yet.
Middle rounds- Floyd takes over. Adjusts to Manny, counters him.
Final rounds- wears Manny down. Wins.
Look at my thread past, I've killed Floyd, I used to hate him. But he's now a special special fighter.
It came to the point where I was so worked up about Floyd winning that I wanted Hatton, Oscar, any mo'****er to whip him, but now I come to realise that Floyd is up there with the best. Respect the guy, cause I promise you when he finally retires for good it'll be you lot who will complain that boxing is dead and boring.
