no one comes close to outboxing Floyd but the only 2 that do have a slight chance is only due to size and or being a Southpaw and that is Martinez & Alexander. A prime Spinks maybe but not anymore. Still, I think Floyd ices all 3. He definitely kills them if they were righty but they may can do some things to him as Southpaws. Bradley has shown some boxing skill when he wants but he's a righty and he's just not a better boxer than Floyd. Khan maybe with more experince and Floyd gettng older, if he lives up to the hype.
who has a boxer's chance against floyd?

also, as funny as it sounds, it may be Pac as the #1 guy. A few years ago it wouldve been the most laughable thing ever as Pac was a beast but just a one demensional brawler. Now though Pac is actually a really good pure boxer. He still has bad balance at time but he can counter you now and is a much smarter fighter. He knows how to sets traps and all. Then him being a Southpaw makes it 10x harder. I dont think he can outbox Floyd but he probably has a good of a chance as any. Alot of his winning lately has come more from a pure boxing standpoint. People dont look at it that way because he's swinging alot but he's outboxing these catsComment

His power was unbelievable. You dont even believe it.im not taking away anything from edwin and i give him a lot of credit for the things he had achieved.. but saying he will ko floyd is unbelievable.. edwin's nowhere near pac or shane yet. and i believed he'll even have a tough time against marquez at lightweight..Comment

yah, they still see pac as a brawler only. good for toe-to-toe.also, as funny as it sounds, it may be Pac as the #1 guy.

i know his power is unbelievable from his own standpoint.His power was unbelievable. You dont even believe it.
but look saying pac ko's floyd is even an illusion.

Pac would knock out Flyod silly. Flyod knows this,Sr, Ellerbe
and whole Mayweather team. Bump this up when Flyod fights Pac (if he grow some balls), Flyod will get knock the *** up!!!

Pac does ko floyd. Valero vs Pac is hard to call because they are both so relentless, i think its a case of whoever makes the first mistakes. That fight would not have gone 12 for sure. Floyd is the best pure boxer out of the 3, but at that elite level, and only at that elite level, can speed and power override effectively. Thats why floyd would lose imo, not by being outboxed but by ko. Moselys 2nd round confirmed any doubts i previously had.Last edited by jonesy; 05-09-2010, 06:39 PM.Comment
