Will Floyd end up like Roy Jones?

[The Big Dunn]

Fighting has been in his blood since he was born, he may act now like he is getting tired of it and so on but Roy did the exact same thing with that basketball bull**** and constant talking of retirement, now he just can't give it up.

Floyd craves fighting and the limelight as much as Roy and will find it hard to give up, anyone agree?

Might end up fighting well past his prime.

no. he made more last year than roy did throughout much of his career.

Those 40 million dollar paydays will keep him in the game WAY longer than he should.

We WILL see Floyd ktfo at some point, he's 40 in only four years.

[REMOVED SHARK 97]

Floyd can do whatever he wants he's got that much money .. but at some point he's gotta go back to work the way he spends.

When work consists of building his legacy, 50mill in the bank, limelight, cameras, praise and 36 minutes in the ring, yeah I think he's born to do this forever sadly.

More like Hopkins,keep fighting and take some loses but still win major titles

Why you say we will see him ko'd??Hopkins is 48 and HAS NEVER been ko'd

[THE REED]

Floyd doesn't fight anything like Hopkins though.

Hopkins either stays away from you or rushes in with his head and a punch and grabs you, so even at his age, he can spoil you. Floyd stands there and rolls for his defense, he relies on his lateral movement, and get this... YES Floyd relies on his reflexes for multiple reasons.

ONE, when he's standing in the middle of the ring, he puts his back foot up on his toe and anticipates his opponent to punch so he can do a pull counter straight right hand, thats all reflex based.

When he rolls punches and combinations, he's using his reflexes to roll the punch BEFORE it comes in. He's defense is good because he at least keeps one glove to his chin, but he IS using his reflexes... he's not staying away and then smothering you like Bernard.

I think Floyd has considerably slowed down, granted he's human and he should, the first thing to slow down is your legs and your lateral movement, so far he's made it work very good for him, but when that anticipation, reflexes, and lateral movement slow down a bit more, that's when the real problems sink in.

Because get this.... Floyd is Floyd and Bernard is Bernard.

Using evidence that SOMEONE ELSE has never been KOd as reason that someone else won't... is ridiculous.

well floyds style does require reflexes but at the same time he can adapt and spoil,i dont think we will ever see him knocked out,he is to smart.he may lose but he aint gonna lose like that

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

Even a 75% Floyd is better than most fighters alive. I think unless he just becomes shot overnight hell be around for a while and boxing heads off shoulders. And if all else fails hes smart as shyt and will adjust to anything.
