Mayweather takes too much punishment trying to appease the "fans". His best style is defensive and it works for him. Man or no man he's ranked p4p #1 for a reason. At least respect that.

Who the hell wants to end up punch drunk. All them toe to toe wars you guys love ill admit is exciting but if you're the one fighting or training a fighter would you want to do it. If floyd was to fight toe to toe he'd get ktfo lol. Fighting toe to toe doesn't make you any more of a man than fighting backwards. All them damn punches will make you sound like james toney.

It is a difficult style to perfect because it leaves you feeling so exposed to danger.
so what's your point? he's a defensive fighter isn't that what he's supposed to do? the guy i quoted was trying to make it appear like what floyd is doing is something out of the norm when in fact it's not.
if floyd goes out of his comfort zone and do something unexpected then yeah it's a news.
and lol @ it leaves you feeling so exposed to danger
how about offensive fighters who actually take more risks?

If Mayweather was as good as some think, he would be finishing the job by knocking out opponents. I would like to see Mayweather actually finish someone off to add punctuation to his skills and you don't have to go toe to toe to produce spectaclar endings.

As for Floyd going out of his comfort zone. He did that in the third round of the Mosley fight. After getting rocked he uncharacteristically walked Mosley down in the following round.
The last part of your post makes me believe that you never been in a fight or competed in a sport with offense and defense. When you go on the offense you have the potential to force your opponent on the back foot which consequentially diminishes their offense. You're exposed to danger, and it is not my intention to belittle that danger, I just wouldn't say the danger of playing a defensive game is beneath it as you submit yourself more to the opponents pressure.
