    No disrespect to Floyd but Rigo is number one. He's so fluid and balanced in his movement that it's almost superhuman. No matter what an opponent does, he always just floats right back into a perfect position. It's something else.

      And it's not even close Mayweather fans.
      Look at his footwork against Ghost. It wasnt just normal footwork. He was so noticeably lightfooted that at times when Ghost attacked, Floyd would leap across the ring. Rigo has good footwork, but I wouldnt say that it wasnt close.

        You do realize that you're talking about Robert Guerrero vs Floyd Mayweather right?

        Rigondeaux and Pacquiao have better foot work than Floyd. Floyd can't put punches together or move from one spot to the other like Manny can.

          Gamboa? In that case I'll say Amir Khan.

            Pretty much this.

            Floyd analyzes, sets, right hand, then roll and pivot.

            That's not profound foot movement. It's impressive, but not on some Rigo/pac stuff.

              Gamboa has great foot movement, I don't get why you guys think he doesn't.

                Rigo, Mayweather and Ward, also Rigo, Mayweather and Ward.....Rigo, Mayweather and Ward.

                Mayweather can move from a position in a wide stance to a difference position just ridiculously fast. Most fighters could not even conceive of being able to move that fast.

                Pacquiao is quick but not as consistently clever, Pacquiao's style is a bit too aggressive and chaotic.

                  Rigondeaux then Rigondeaux then some
                  Floyd
                  Gamboa
                  Kovalev
                  Brook
                  Terance Crawford

                  I think Manny has exceptional footspeed but he makes a lot of mistakes.

                    Rigondeaux! The man can basically box LATERALLY! LOL at this gif, Donaire is back peddling while Rigondeaux is just skipping towards him and cutting the ring off so easily.
