VIDEO: Floyd Mayweather: Techniques vs Southpaw

[SincereDaGreat]

glen johnson is another one hes a hard fight for anyone but has never been super elite, i guess people forget that all these guys are professional boxers...

Very true...don't know how I skipped Glen...he's probably that most obvious of the bad record bunch.

If you're reading this thread Floyd, common make the fight. All your fans thinks it's an easy fight. Forget about all the excuses and peds nonsense, just grow some nuts, show some confidence in your ability and make that fight. Common Floyd try to make your fans happy.

Maybe instead of asking mayweather to drop the test procedures you should ask pac to take the test with no excuses.

Can you name ONE round in Mayweathers whole career where he CLEARLY CLEARLY CLEARLY lost a round??? I'm talking totally obvious that he lost it!!!

IMO it isn't really stuggling when you lose 2-3 rds in a 12rd fight...Floyd must be crazy nice in the ring if the standard he's held to is that he can't lose a couple rounds LOL!!!!

I recall 2nd round Mosley, almost got ktfo. some against judah and delahoya that i recall, not to mention castillo and corley.

Floyd looks vulnerable against southpaws, like Manny looks vulnerable against counter-punchers.

Doesn't mean they lose to them. Hence the reason why these two needs to fight.

That you can remember the specific rounds that floyd lost says more about his greatness than anything else.

im a floyd fan i dont think the fight will be easy , it will be boring after round 4 tho, are u willing to take the test?

asking for additional test is a big excuse. no one else goes around asking their opponents for additional test. there are only 2 reasons why he's asking. one, pacquiao is just too strong, too fast, throws too many punches that he truly believes he's on peds or two, he is just too strong, too fast, throws too many punches. Either way he has no confidence in himself to get into the ring with him.

Getting hit with two good hard punches doesnt mean he almost got knocked out..he didnt even get knocked down. He shook it off and it was a 10 9 rd.

When the test were first brought up pacs camp agreed to it..then after floyd agreed to all their demands they turn around and say they need cutoff dates. So floyd gives them their cutoff dates and they fight clottey instead. If you still cant comprehend that the extra testing is for the better of the sport than u have problems. And it is a fact that it was manny, not floyd, who walked away from negotiations. Floyd is still calling manny out and they will fight and youll create a new BS account after manny is takin ti school.

Corley stunned all the big name fighters he's fought!!! Just because your not ELITE don't mean you can't put together a good showing from time to time. Augustas has a record that clearly don't reflect the kind of fighter he was, I mean hey...look at Baldomir, he sucks but he put enough together to be the Lineal Champ, get a couple of big time fights and he also got F.O.Y with that same crap record.

u think maybe its because he was in a fight with a pro boxer that he got hit? hell im a regular guy with a job and when i spar against people who do it professionaly i get some hits in myself!!!! how much more another professional?

You both make a good point. I would counter that Floyd has fought far better fighters than Corley without copping the kind of shots he took against Corley. I am in a way paying Floyd a compliment.

How many times in Floyd's career have you seen him take as many hard, damaging shots as he took against Corley? What do you want to chalk that up to? I'm saying watch those exchanges and you will see Corley got there because 1- he was punching with Floyd and 2- because his southpaw angles.

This is significant to me because both Ortiz and Pacquaio present southpaw angles, both are excellent pressure fighters with good speed and power. Both are also far superior to Corley, even in the categories in which Corley had some ability.

I give Floyd a lot of credit for fighting Ortiz, I think that is a dangerous fight. If Floyd has an easy time, I will never mention Floyd being weak to southies again.
