    ^this. I have never seen Floyd ever fight a runner where you must really pressure fight and cut the ring off, Floyd mainly forces guys who are normal counter punchers to chase him or push the fight. Floyd has the patience he doesn't care if people boo, he forced JMM to chase him is a perfect example of how he can get people to fight out of the comfort zone.

    He mainly walks guys down slowly, this is the aspect Broner mainly uses of Floyds.

      never really chased a good mover though, or a guy running to survive
      manny isn't even good at cutting a ring off. See how he struggled to catch Mosley or find Cotto once Miguel got on his bike

      Floyd at the very least is good at it. I think it was the 6th round where Cotto had success boxing and moving. Floyd came out in the 7th round and quickly put an end to that ****, reverting Cotto back to the stalker role

        Sometimes I think people forget Mayweather had a career at 130.

            J... I'm sorry to break it to you but Chavez would beat Floyd at 130.

                      we don't really know how great he is at cutting the ring off, he is better at baiting guys to fight outside of their comfort zone and chase him or bring the fight to him. like he did with Juan Manuel Marquez he forced the backstepper to go forward on him so it made the fight easier for Floyd. JMM sucks at pressure fighting.

                      how do we know how great he is at cutting the ring off when he has never had to really cut the ring off, he has never fought a runner or someone who forces you to chase them down.

                      Floyd just breaks down guys with pot shots and than when they have no answer to his defense he starts pot shoting and slowly walking them down and breaking them down one shot at a time. Guys never run away from him they just stand their so he steps forward and hits them one or two times and covers up in the shell, while slowly walking them back or pot shot them.
