    In my opinion, if you're going to try to copy a fighter for any reason, don't copy a present day fighter.

      I'm suprised Mayweather didn't try and copy sweet pea...although it would have been really ****in hard to try. That man had the most incredible reflexes and powerful legs that boxings ever seen.

        why not copy a new fighter,


        anyways Mayweather didnt invent it, he didnt perfect it, it was being used by old school fighters way before Floyd and you know why, because if you knew how to use the shoulder roll, it worked, if it didnt work fighters like Mayweather wouldnt be using it or any other fighter

            Is that a fact, Did you ask those people, Who are these people that are using it it because of Floyd, where are their statements, in what websites and did you go around polling boxers are they using the shoulder roll cause of Floyd,


            You dont think Floyd is using it cause he learned it from a trainer or saw it on a older fight.Is everything you stated absolute 100% Fact.

                Vargas look ugly doin it. Yuck, LOL.

                That's why I have ma exciting fightas list. People that stand out. There's too many "AVERAGE FIGHTAS THAT WINS ALOT" right now.

                Floyd Mayweatha's style to me is exciting. So fast to punch, so fast to avoid a punch.

                Manny Pacquiao's style to me is exciting. Neva stops. Punch afta punch, afta punch, afta punch all of em havin ta intention to knock you out.



                these 2 fightas stand out in terms of "style" in boxing.

                  Mayweather is the most gifted fighter in boxing, nobody like him skillwise

                  Manny_P is relentless as hell, heart of a lion, that why his fights are great, he never holds back, bloodied or not, even when hes hurt he comes to you, He showed so much courage vs Morales by attacking Morales, Thats why i as a Morales fan never rule out a fighter like PacMan, in my heart i got Morales winning, but i never discount Pac out cause he has a punch, in the back of my head, i know Pac can knock out Morales with his left, Pacquiao has heart.

Im not going to just say Floyd because Sr. taught him and he teaches some others to do it but damn. Since when did Vargas try to fight like that?
                    same thing i thought about vargas..vargas is a power mans mayweather though..he dosent have the speed

                      Get it through your thick neanderthal skull already..
                      The Whitaker who fought Tito was shot. Past his prime in age/skill and weight.

                      In a pound for pound matchup both fighters at their best with weight being a non-factor Whitaker would have embarrased Tito.
