    2014 Floyd vs 2007 Floyd (DLH)

    One is younger and one is older but which version of Floyd in your opinion is better.

    I think the present day Floyd with Floyd SR is better and is the best Floyd we've seen. Physically he may be a tad slower in his hands and feet but he is by far the most dangerous now because of his experience.

    2014 Floyd @ 147 has really filled out in weight. Just compare his body vs Hatton it is night and day.

    There is no question with SR back in the corner that Floyd looks way sharper. Defensively and offensively. On offense Floyd jab is back and it was on full display vs Canelo. I don't think he has ever had that snap on his jab before. He was mixing it up just pawing with it and at time he was really using a hard stiff piston like jab and snapping Canelo back.



    What are your thoughts ? How has Floyd developed as a fighter as the years have flown by?

    I just don't see what today's Floyd does better.

    More costumed to the weight I suppose and added experience but every other advantage goes to 2007 version.

        Floyd now I think is better..more experienced. More footwork and the best timing.

          2014 Floyd doesn't appear that he would ever fight a fighter of the caliber of a 2007 Floyd.
