        Wrong reply bro...

          please explain Floyd's claim, how are 10oz reyes heayweight 10 oz gloves vs say 10 oz Grants or any other 10oz glove? I know different gloves have different characteristics but I aint buying that claim.

                I agree with this. Too many fighters recently have attacked floyd instead of focusing on defense. Oscar is the last guy to at least have success at this by perrying floyds punches. He chose his spots to attack and had minor success.

                Marquez tried to work off of floyd though and he got picked apart. So its not just that simple.

                A guy like vernon forrest or winky wright would have had success fighting floyd this way.

                  Always felt winning the first round and then forcing floyd to chase would be crucial

                    I think the only way to beat Mayweather is to be an EFFECTIVE counter puncher.

                    Fight moving back, letting Floyd come forward, and throwing shots IN BETWEEN Floyd's punches.

                      Floyd's two main punches are dependent on having distance to land them, they are his straight right and his snapping left hook.


                      Did you just say that Floyd has no inside game? Floyd has one of the best inside games in the sport.
