    This is lost on a lot of people. You need the jab to disrupt Floyd's offense and feint effectively to break up his timing and anticipation. Canelo tried feinting initially but didn't possess the speed of hand or foot. Forrest would have likely beat Floyd. That would be the prototype for a fighter that would beat him. Forrest and Hearns.

      He's right, HOWEVER...we've seen punchers in there get gun shy and in a hurry.

      It's got to be a guy with speed, and who's willing to eat leather, and not get gun shy in the process.

      Maidana isn't afraid to trade, but I'm concerned he doesn't have the speed.

      That's where Amir Khan comes into play. Young, lots of punches, willing to eat leather. His chin should hold up against Mayweather.

      No haters tonight guys, I'm too tired.
      the thing is amir cant eat too many leather or else he gets drunk and starts wobbling around in the ring.

          JMM caused Pac problems, so FLoyd would as well? Get outta here with that. Floyd will not get credit for what JMM did.!!!!!!!!!!

          The only way to beat Pac is if he gives you 4 attempts to, or gets robbed by the judges.

          FLoyd will lose if he fights regularly year after year, but hes retiring now so no chance of that, and he will retire unbeaten. Zeros mean zilch though we know that.

              The Forrest that got koed by Mayorga, or the Forrest that got decision-ed by Mayorga, or the Forrest that got his ass whooped by the contender Sergio Mora, which one........................................
