I appreciate your efforts here, but Floyd does not have the best offense in boxing.
Everyone says Floyd has the best defense, but there are a number of fighters who get hit less than him. However, Floyd's d is the most complex and thorough.
Offensively, you have to following that are better than Floyd:
1) The Klits. Their offense is both more effective than floyd's in finishing their opponents AND it also makes them nearly untouchable in the right.
2) Pac-Man. Accuracy is part of offense, but it's not everything. For example, the Clottey fight. CLottey was completely covered up the entire fight, no way to be accurate with him. Manny has sick pop in both hands and is just as fast as Floyd. He also has a better up and down attack.
3) Yukioris Gamboa- this dude's pop/angles, combos are among the sickest I've ever seen.
4) Celestino Caballero- Think Pwill but way faster so you can't counter in between his punches so easily (unless your last name is gamboa)
5) Bute- His attack is very similar to Floyd's, offensively, but he's got more pop.
6) Can't wait for Kirkland to come back, his o could be the best in boxing.
Bottom line, Floyd's offense is effective, but its his D and quickness that make him what he is. They are what frustrates his opponents. His soffense is very good, but to say the best in boxing is just an argument you are never going to win with anyone that knows his boxing.
