Ive watched all those fights multiply times. The Hatton fight ******, too much clinching. The Judah fight was good, he adjusted after 4 rounds and dominated. Ill say thats is 2nd best WW win. The Mosley fight was good too. But i think he couldve done better, but i dont blame him because IMo that was from a 3 year layoff. The JMM fight does not count in my book.
Now i find the Ortiz fight most impressive because i think he was the biggest test of the names mentioned. He showed he can absorb shots, and back up the bigger guy, and actually be exciting while performing so well.
Watch the close stuff. Moving his head the same direction of the punch to avoid shots and lessen the blow. Parrying with his elbows. Balance and use of distance and space to control the pace of the fight.
He throws elbows, he holds and hits, he will push your ass down after hitting you...oh man they are going to be frothing at the mouth with rage
Yeah floyd definitely is gonna STREETCH the boundaries of the rule book. The way he uses his elbows but makes it appear as if its just in the flow of the fight is gonna really piss off the pac fans should they fight.
In all seriousness thats why I like BHop and Floyd, and James Toney. Its like getting a chance to see how things were when boxing was really grimey before we were born.

I guess we find different things exciting.
He was doing the same thing against Ortiz and coming forward.
Also when Ortiz came forward he wasnt taking 2 steps back lieke he use to. He for the msot part stayed in the pocket.
