    Pbf seems to be fighting more like a prime James Toney.

    He has not used his legs much at all in his last two fights, marquez was understandable since he was tiny, but after watching the mosley fight again, I can see that Floyd is focusing more on rolling and defending while staying infront of you and moving very little. I think due to his age taking his legs away, he fights like a prime James Toney, looking to counter any mistakes he sees rather than pot shotting and moving. By the way, I like it a lot.

    But then again, Lightweight Floyd was amazing to watch.

        Other than Pacquiao at 147 no one has a chance in hell.

              I think on May 1st round 2 we saw the only fighter at WW that can do that. Doubt Pacquiao will close to doing that. This version of Floyd is much more active now he's 2 fights in after his retirement. He shook his rust off against Marquez, fought a tough WW Mosley and took his power shots early, now bring on Pacquiao.

                Calling him James Toney is too much of a compliment.

                But him losing his legs is a lot better for the sport. Now he can't punk out even if he wanted to.

                    I love Toney fellow Michigander but Floyd is better then him.
