Floyd is a Small Dude

[DLT]

same thing i said...ive seen him in person...hes little as hell..when he was fighting at 135 he wasnt even bigger then those guys..judah is bulit more solid then floyd mayweather..mayweather needs to stay at 140 or 135..because margarito is too big ans strong for him

Exactly, thats what I mean. Even at the lower weights, he looks small. He body is made kind of sharp but it isnt in a Pac Man type way. Its in a more bonier way. Even guys who way the same as him and are the same height, look bigger because of his body type

Mayweather has fought bigger and stronger guys all of his life. I see no problem with him fighting at 147, he would make these bigger guys look like fools.

[Red_Menace]

He looked vulnerable because he came out going for a knock out. He was trying to make an impression.

I don't think his cover up defense was working quite as well against Mitchel. Some of those punches were sneaking in on him a little bit. I think more of Mitchell's body shots were landing than the punch stats gave him credit for, or at least he wasn't blocking them solid, and maybe only catching a piece of the punches. The only thing I think Mayweather proved is he's going to have to be careful fighting Zab Judah. I still Mayweather is the best fighter going and wins against Judah, but Judah has a better opportunity to sneak a bomb in on him.

I think it was a bad stoppage, Sharmba would of been KOed within another round or 2 but he still could of continued fighting. The thing that REALLY surprised me was Mayweather is actually human. He actually got hit. Honestly, I see a good boxer with a very good chin giving Floyd hell. I smell Mosley

He got hit more because he fought more aggressive than he usually does. I think he wanted to make a statement in his first fight at 147. He knew Mitchell couldn't hurt him so he traded more because he knew he could hurt Mitchell.

Mayweather makes a Mosley fight look easy. Mayweather knows a Mosley fight is more dangerous than a Mitchell fight and he would make his gameplan to suit that. Mayweather is a smart fighter and just because you see him get hit more in one fight doesn't mean he will get hit more in the next fight.

hmm

Floyd's performance last night certainly wasn't as good as people thought it would be. Sharmba still has a bit of skill left, is bigger than Floyd, and is smarter than some of Floyd's recent opponents. Because of that, I give some credit to Floyd.

However, Floyd did seem a bit slower than usual in general. I think he was looking for a KO and that affected his defense, but his HANDS just look a tiny bit slower. He should not be at 147. It's going to be awfully difficult for him to beat guys like Margarito and Judah. Even though Mayweather is so much smarter than Judah, you just have to give Judah a chance because he is very powerful and fast enough to land a bomb on Floyd. He also has the unorthodox style that Floyd has shown some vulnerability to (Sharmba, Corley).

And guys, it's no shock or surprise at all that Floyd came in at 148. Floyd weighed 141 his last fight on FIGHT NIGHT. If anything, it's a surprise that he weighed that much (148) because it shows he has ADDED some muscle and that is NOT a good thing. It's going to slow him down for when he has to fight Hatton, if he does.

pbf will be unbeatable until his 49th fight when a former childhood friend starts calling him out pbf will win the first fight but in the 2nd fight will be ktfo in the 2nd round

[TyrantT316]

Floyd won't exactly APPEAR the "smaller man" vs Judah or Hatton...he has a slight height advantage over Judah and maybe reach...and more height advantage and signifigant reach over Hatton...plus Floyd fills out 147lbs just as well as Judah..

so especially vs Hatton, Floyd will be able to use his size (height and reach) advantages as well as speed and boxing...

vs Judah it will be a bit tougher because of Judah's speed and pop himself

Didn't that happen in Wrestling or some ****?

...Overall I think Floyd did pretty well.

[jack_the_rippuh]

If he fights Mosley, he'll 120-108 him...easily.

[BLOODSHED]

I noticed he did look slower....

did Floyd look a insy bit slower at 147lbs or thurrr was no difference at all? IMO, I think his elusiveness was still thurrr. Ta fact that he moves up in weight 147lbs and weighed at 148lbs in ta fight shows how much tis guy trains and dedicates himslef. That's ta perfect way to go and I hope ma man Pacquiao can do it aswell tis January. If Pac ways in at about 132-135lbs on fight night gainst Morales, Morales witout a question is done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
