Good point, if Floyd can line Chino up for big shots he'll hurt him and he'll be right up there with the biggest punchers Maidana has faced. ANd he doesn't realize it now but Floyd will be the strongest guy he's physically faced in the ring and Floyd's physical strength is something that gets overlooked

thats the thing about floyd, he trains for every situation. in training he has that huge guy that wears the punching pads for floyd to practice body punching, lean on him and grab and hold floyd, simulating what happens in a fight. this huge guy pushes floyd and floyd basically wrestles with this guy. marcos is not huge. floyd will be far stronger than marcos.

Floyd will be faster and more accurate but he will not be physically stronger. There isn't a person on earth that would say Floyd is stronger, physically, that's not his thing. His game is skills and athleticism. That's why Floyd has a game plan that works for him and Maidana has his. Floyd does not want an inside game or war of attrition against a physically stronger foe. That's how Castillo won rounds. Floyd is not there to match strength, he is there to be an artist and take away strength from opponents.
