    Timing, accuracy, technique, footwork etc are all part of power. Having power is a skill in itself. He doesnt weigh any more than other JWW's, if not a little less than most, but he hits harder than any of them. Why is that?

The guy has scary power and can box in spurts ... That's it.
      Just watch his fights. When you're trying to avoid him, he won't get caught in that trap of getting hit, and chasing you down. He'll apply smart pressure, and find his distance.

      When you oblige him in a fist fight, he'll concede some shots to land his own.

      When it turns into a war like that, that's no longer boxing. It's a fight. To Lucas, he no longer has to work to get to you. He can just rely on his chin, and his concussive power, and let the rest happen.

      You can't nitpick at battles like that.

          What were you expecting Floyd Sr. to say? The truth is - Lucas has great power and a great chin. What is his other elite skills? Stop over analyzing this what Floyd said? Floyd told the truth about his power and did not mention his chin. Lucas also has a great chin.

          FYI for BS members. The Mayweathers are not going to give credit to other fighters skills unless they can match Floyd Jr. skill set.

            Agreed with everything he said, the hype on Mattysse is incredible right now. Cant wait for his first real loss and all you guys can finally hop off

                Bet If Lucas was black he might of been willing to give some love out, Snr is a absolute scumbag.

                  I wasnt even that bothered by what Floyd senior said, Matthysse doesnt have elite skills... but some on here took that to mean he has no skills. Which is crazy as he is actually very good in lots of departments other than power and chin.

                  Never mind, you guys can see what you want to see... Dont be surprised when he keeps on winning until he steps up in weight though. Even then dont be surprised when he more than holds his own against guys bigger than him.

                    he has good skills. but without his power, hed be nothing special. im pretty sure most would agree with that. his power is his defining attribute. hes not fast, doesnt have a good jab, isnt overly hard to hit or accurate. hes a good pressure fighter, which is hard to find nowadays, but his pressure definitely comes from his power. he will have success as long as hes able to make ppl feel his power. will it work at 147? i dunno.

                      Was he supposed to Lucas is greatest fighter he's ever seen. Lucas has Ivan Drago type power but his technical are lacking a lil but I will say he's improved each time out and is must see right now he's the 140 version of GGG.
