    floyd flat-footed???

    in a recent interview, roach said floyd appeared flat-footed against mosely. i watched the fight, as many of u have. did floyd appear flat-footed, just because he decided to stand in front of mosely and fight??? did i miss something???

    i didnt see any wasted energy from floyd and his movement all fight was more than adequate to deal with the likes of mosely. tell me if im wrong...

      Floyd looked amazing. He wasnt flat footed hes taking steps back and lightening speed to avoid punches.

      He catered his style to Shanes style. He didnt want to dance around him. He wanted to fight him.

          I think hes just talking ****. Floyd wanted to fight that way against Mosley, but his legs are still there.

            He's a lot more flat footed now than in the past but he has the reflexes to nullify that.

              Floyd was very stationary in that fight, perhaps his legs have gone.

              Pac's footwork is by far superior. It's even better than Hatton's and he was able to get in close on FLoyd easily.

                I wouldn't say flatfooted, but he isn't on his toes as much as he use to be.

                he walked Judah down
                he sat on the ropes the majority of the time with oscar/hatton as well as center of the ring.

                He sat in the center of the ring pivoting, countering, and slipping against JMM. and he for the most part completely walked Shane down.

                Wether or not his legs are "gone" is yet to be seen, but in his last performances he is noticeably flat footed. People are taking it as an insult, it's not, it's just a fact. Floyd isn't on his toes anymore.

                You can be a MOVER and be flat footed as well. Don't assume flat footed means you cant move, or are a sitting duck. Floyd is just noticeably more "relaxed" and can even be called "lazier" in the ring than before.

                  Roach talks just to hear himself talk. I used to like the guy but he's a douchebag really. Obviously Floyd didn't use much movement because he was the aggressor for most of the fight and he was the one pushing Mosley back and Mosley was the one retreating. First Roach said Mayweather will NEVER fight Mosley. Then when they fight he says Floyd will win a boring decision by "pot shotting". Now that he was wrong about both things and Mayweather was the aggressor and had Mosley retreating most of the fight he says Floyd is "flat footed" lmaooo. Roach is a moron.

                    I thought Floyd was a runner.
