    Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!


    Let's give Floyd another flat footed, limited power puncher who has a "punchers chance".

    Rios
    Provodnikov
    Maidana
    Ortiz rematch


    Those should be his last 4 fights. Taking punches to the face put food on the plate.

      Hatton was a clumsy mess, he cant pull it off.

      Im gonna get alot of shiet for this but I think Provodnikov got the best chance outta anyone to beat him. Very low but still the best chance.
      A lot of people underestimate Mayweather's power. You'd see more people going for broke if they could just eat his punches undeterred, but they take a toll.

        rushing in head first is never a good plan

          I think the best chance to beat Mayweather is to remain calm and not get frustrated. I thought Canelo had the patience to at least make it competitive but he didn't. Mayweather didn't make it easy either. He kept his hands in face popping him every chance he got. Some of those shots were just annoying but it worked. Canelo got frustrated and was never to mount an intelligent game plan. Mayweather was in his head the whole night and probably before the fight with the catch weight argument they made. Team Canelo was frustrated even before the first bell.

                Every fighter should go against every opponent with a "go for broke" mentality, to be honest, but it's clear you didn't watch the Hatton fight.

                Also, as the poster says below your OP, it's easier said than done. As I have said mroe than once around here, you can have the blueprint all day, executing it is another story.

                  IMO if you aren't just as fast as Mayweahter then you need to pressure him.

                  Khan and Judah are the only 2 guys that I believe should ever consider "boxing" Mayweather.

                    We say this every time but it never happens. Not many fighters are willing to get knocked out anymore.

                      Bump

                      Now im not bumping because im saying Prov can beat mayweather, but with the limited options Floyd have (better than devon or amir)

                      This is the better fight to make.
