    Floyd's more offensive toe-to-toe style: should he keep it?

    based on his performance on saturday, should he continue fighting this way, or should he go back to his elusive style fighting at a distance?

    i doubt he fights like that in his next fight- probably did it to make the fight with pac seem more exciting than it would be

      Depends on the opponent...if its Pac I think he'll stick and move early and possibly revert to more offensive later in the fight...

      But then again idk his gameplan should he fight Pac...

        Depends on the fight and the fighter. He just adapts.

          Mayweather was backing Mosley up after round 4, Mosley was the one holding and not wanting to trade punches !!

              He will run against the midget Pacquiao. He can choose between fighting like a man and getting knocked out or running like a little ***** and loose a UD.

                You don't fight ever fight the same way. I don't know why that's so hard for some people to understand. Boxers have different strategies for opponents. What worked against Mosley might not work against another opponent and the strategy will change accordingly. You fight with a style that is effective. Whatever that style happens to be.

                  This is how Floyd always fights. He was standing in front of Oscar during periods of the fight too. Had to pressure Judah to win. Had to throw done with Mitchell to win. That's not even counting the Chavez and Ndou fights among others.
