Floyd's offence is underrated

[V.WEBB]

Mayweather has an offence? I would agree he has one of the best defences in boxing today but it's grabbing for hope suggesting he is in anyway a good offensive fighter.

Also even if Floyd is pressing forward, he would be in range before Manny so if he throws from the proper range he will always land first, and if Manny tries to beat him to the punch all Floyd has to do is feint Manny throws out of range then gets countered something nasty.

There is a reason it is called a reach advantage, and if properly used it can be devastating.

Those guys all had much longer ranges then Manny has, Floyd generally fights in the way that makes the fight easiest for him.

If Floyd is backing Manny up in such a fashion the fight is over for Manny because he will have already been broken mentally if that is happening.

tiny chavez, castillo and hatton were able to get close and bully mayweather around the ring. what happened to his great reach? reach can be negated with foot speed and foot work. 2 of manny's best assets. difference is those guys have no mid range game. its all the way in or all the way out. pac will be able to get in that mid range where you can punch him but he can punch you. what's mayweather gonna do about it? marquez threw deadly combos to back him off is mayweather gonna throw deadly potshots?

I agree totally. I mean, assault and battery of a woman is a very serious offence and they should totally make an example of him.

Mayweather is great an neutralizing a guys best range, while he possesses the advantages at every other range over Manny.

Being better at inside or outside is a better to beat Floyd than being midrange, as midrange require precise placement which is much easier to be neutralized.

Floyd beat all those guys and utilized range very effectively yet differently in each case.

Mayweather doesn't need to be near as precise with his offense yet he is exquisitely precise, so I don't see how your conclusion's are the likely outcome.

Also a one-two is a combination and Floyd throws the one-two a lot

[The Gambler1981]

The danger for Floyd and any fighter who fights a midrange guy, is getting caught in between.

A lot of guys really take range for granted allowing guys to fight wherever they want.

However Floyd certainly is not one of those sort, although anything can happen when he is going from outside to inside as that is a natural opening.

Floyd Patterson right??

Floyd Patterson right??

As long as he is not fighting Sonny Liston~

Mayweather has a great offense. Some people don't think so because of his lack of punching power, but offensive skill and power are two different things in my opinion.
