Lol I never said he didn't have hand issues, I said he has no power on his punches. Malinaggi blames his lack of power on his repeated issues with his hands, can you say he has power too? Of course not, because regardless of the reason you can't throw a powerful punch, it still comes down to not being able to throw one. If a guy says "I have incredible movement in the ring but I can't use it because my knees hurt" would you still consider him to have incredible movement? Again of course not because it would be a ridiculous thing to say. I swear, only with Mayweather do you hear things like he can't punch hard but hes still a hard puncher
What things about Floyd Mayweather are underrated?

His ducking ability is very underrated. We thought that he was only,"you live to far away to fight",duck but he's also,"my health come first duck".Comment

I'm not a regular poster; in fact, I try to avoid it as much as possible, because it's not good for me emotionally to get involved and be drawn into ****** debate. Not good at it. I often wish I didn't, but i visit this site (for better or worse) most everyday, multiple times a day. I have to scroll through ALOT of posts/posters to find posts of substance and free of 'over the top' bias.His ability to generate huge pop in small distances....
You simply dont see world class fighters often reacting to clinch blows, contrary to Floyd while facing the highest of highest level of opponents, they scream to the ref, they elbow, they push, they foul almost instantly when Floyd is in the trench touching, and poking away at them with clean shots; it demoralizes his opponents bad enough you have to worry about counters, when they finally get close those shots are hurting like they aren't supposed to. That touts punch precision and accuracy, and better pop than advertised.....
That Roger pad-work is the key to this close quarters punching.
I said all that to say that I really truly enjoy reading your posts.Comment
