Mayweathers Power

[boliodogs]

Mayweather throws his power punches with speed and proper technique so he has good power. The straight right he hit Ortiz with would KO lots of fighters in my opinion. I think his power is underrated. When he wants to he hits hard. He is not a big puncher but his power is above average.

Disagree. His power is not above average. That is an embellishment. Floyd's power, if you can call it that, is average at best. His talent is his quickness. Not alot of power needed if the subject doesn't see the punch.

I believe mayweathers power is underrated to an extent.

Whoever said cotto's defense against mayweather wasnt better than it's been is crazy, an the connect percentage numbers prove it. Mayweather, one of the most accurate punchers ever, had dismal numbers/percentage, way below what he is used to.

If they got back together, and cotto focused on taking away the sweeping right/left uppercut combo punches, where would that leave mayweather?

I think Floyd has average power, and Cotto has an average chin. Mayweather is a good puncher though. He's quick, fast, and accurate. With those qualitties he's able to hurt most guys, specially late in fights when he has taken the air out of the other fighters wheels.

I also think some people maybe be confusing physical strenght with power. Mayweather looks stronger now at ww than before and that enables him to be more agressive effectively, but I think his punching power is pretty much the same.

TS + POT = Floyd wasnt hit alot by cotto

keep sniffin those stuff

the nxt day = floyd is superman

I thought that Cotto's chin has always been a little suspect.

[puga]

in a scale of 1-10 , with 10 being the hardest, id rate floyds power 6 and calderon 2..floyd is not featherfisted but he aint a power puncher by any means ......

Pacquiao is the only one who has put Cotto down clean. Torres pulled him down and he took a knee against Margo. Cotto has a very underrated chin.

ya, agreed. what i think is that the TS is a massive mayweather ****rider that doesnt know anything.

unbiased observers in this fight, for the majority, had mayweather by scores of 115-113 or 116-112. cotto is not a sore loser and after the fight he walked off as if he was disgusted with the scores, his trainer told cotto in the 11th round that the fight was even (i would agree, had mayweather up one round at the time).

heres a tip: get mayweather's **** out of your mouth. he is an amazing defensive fighter, but this was farrrrrr from his best defensive showing. he was being hit more in this fight than almost all of his fights.

also, he doesn't have good power at all. his power i would say is average at 147 and below average at 154.

You know as much about boxing as James Toney knows about MMA lol dumbass
