          I'm not joking. It was always the little guys with low centers of gravity that would give MJ trouble. Stockton, Payton, Bogues, Starks, Mookie Blaylock. With hand checking rules, those guys were nightmare defenders.

              defensive minded, and very conservative, he doesn't take too many chances, he is the best example of hit and don't be hit

                  He's definitely the most graphic example. He'll jump back fifty feet to avoid a single jab. Floyd likes getting hit as little as anyone I can think of at the elite level ever. It's served him well. He's excellent at showcasing who's landing on who's not. No doubt.

                    true to an extent, but ive never seen black not do what he wanted to do on any of those guys. Gary Payton definitely gave him fits tho, all be it an older Michael.

                      Responsive means always ready to capitalize upon your opponents mistakes. By responding precisely and smartly to someone else's aggression. By cultivating initiative, well thats an opposite energy. Its creating opportunity where very little existed in the first place. Its almost an opposite energy of being responsive.

                      yin and yang is the successful balance and harmonizing of seemingly polarizing opposites that actually complement the other. To me its a perfect summary of what Mayweather does.

                      Probably my last time responding to you. If I ever want to know how to slobber on Floyd's balls and thinly veil it by calling it "hate", I will look you up. Meanwhile, you might do well reading some of my, and some of the other knowledgable posters on this forum's, insight, if you ever want to know what the **** you are talking about and not just be a weakling fangirl.
                      stfu, what a waste of words to describe a scared coward... so now using elbows and dancing like a ballerina inside the ring creates opportunity?

                      go suck a coward balls so you can attain a polarizing opposites or ying and yang inside your mouth.
