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

[Calilloyd]

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.

Correct. Mayweather fighting that way is nothing new. Which is why I suspect that some people have not watched a lot of his fights.

floyd should always fight like this. this is what the fans want.

You can atleast say most Boxing fans prefer that. You don't speak for every fan.

Well said man.

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 think it depends on what happens, i think floyd did that to adjust to what happened, he was smart, he prolly thought that mosley would expect him to panic.. but he didnt like naazim richardson said..
he turned into a dragon and started spittin fireballs... funny he called that in the first episode of 24/7 i think.. its just that he thought shane was gonna be able to keep up with him

depends on how hard the fight is. If he struggles when going toe-to-toe he should go back to running and potshotting.

Mayweather gets cred from me for doing his best to entertain the fans

If he fights Manny, he's going to eventually back him up or try to. Manny is not that good of a fighter going backwards. I think PBF's style is all wrong for Manny.

It was smart, he took Mosley's reach away from him. In close Mayweather was safer than out far where mosley's reach and power were their most affective.

[any craic lad?]

I cant see Floyd fighting that way against Manny against Shane he was fighting an opponent who was doing nothing eas too nervous to throw Manny wont be like that if Floyd tries to engage in a firefight with Manny i think he will move his best bet his too move and potshot Manny

so you didn't like what floyd did this saturday? damn these haters!!! when is floyd gonna get credit??

I don't think Floyd should always fight in any particular style. He is versatile and should use whatever style he needs to use to win.
