Sugar Ray Leonard "Floyd's Achilles heel is his temple, not chin"

[goblin213]

I remember him saying this too during Hopkins-Jones II. He said that when you get older punches to the temple affect you more than chin shots.

[[ DUBBZZ ]]

Hear that Floyd? don't let him hit you in the temple.

Floyd is a punk with little man's syndrome.....he won't fight manny because he can't force his will on manny....try choking pacquiao punk...I don't think you'd make it out alive.

wtf does that have to do with the thread? whats wrong with u???

[Forza]

if you get punched in the jaw you could get dizzy

I'm watching it right now because I recorded it and Ray said,

Once you reach a certain age you may possess that same speed, courage, heart, and confidence but at some point. I don't know, I may be wrong, but I think I'm right. You can't hit Floyd on the chin that's not going to happen, but if you catch him on the temple, for some reason that's an Achilles heel. It may prove to be that.

thank you for clearing that up, I totally understood that wrong then lol

Leonard was of course referring to the shot that Mosley gave Floyd in the 2nd round when he went jelly legs. But something about the tone of voice and how SRL said it just made me think he was really on to something.

that shot was on the side of the neck/head NOT on the temple.

Yes exactly

Its kind of a obvious thing tho
