      well IDK if this is really the fight to switch up with. The Ghost was strong against Berto but he's still not as strong as Cotto. I think Floyd should be stronger. Not only that but Ive never ever seen Floyd not walk Southpaws down. If he tries to switch up this fight then it could be bad.

      Im all for it against the Cotto's & Canelo's of the world but IDK if this is the right time. With that being said, nothing would make me more excited than seeing Floyd possibly being bigger than ever (hoping he comes in at 153 or so) and showing he still has his legs.

      If that guy shows up then everyone is in trouble, even at 154

          He better get used to it. Not making that fight happen, while not entirely his fault, will dog him for the rest of his life.
          Might as well already make it the first line of his bio.

            I'm a Floyd fan but he gives some of the worst interviews. All the times he's been in interviews and in front of the bright lights he still stutters.

            They asked if he would fight Guerrero the way he fought Cotto and he said my dad is training me now and he believes in taking less punishment so you can last.

            They also asked him about fighting Pacquiao and he said Pacquiao has a lot of hurdles to get over.

              Like it or not, the sport is boxing - the art of hitting without getting hit. Everyone likes a "slugfest" but the guys that participate in that kind of fight time and time again get short-lived fame, long-term brain damage, amnesia, loss of motor skills and the fans don't tend to stick around to help you when you are drooling on your shirt collar.

                I think his dad being head trainer has gone overlooked.

                  exactly

                  I never believed in taking punishment just to entertain "the fans", many of them not even being YOUR fans. These so called fans even have the nerve to laugh once a brawler is knocked out, see pacquiao. So many casuals went turncoat on him. If slugfest isn't a fighter's optimal style, I'm rather he don't do it

                  His father will try to lay the hammer down and tell him to do **** differently if he's not keeping the tightest D.
