You know what. MM is right about the jab. Floyd also gives you his body. He is hittable to the body and to the head. You have to have a good jab, work-rate, stamina, and brain to have a chance to beat him. MM is intelligent but doesn't have the skill to beat Floyd, BUT Floyd is aging and no matter what adjustments he makes, it'll be a competitive fight. Floyd avoids highly skilled fighters for a reason. He is a great fighter but he's overrated. If Oscar wasn't OLD when they fought, he would've outpointed Floyd. Prime Oscar at 147/154 beats him every time. Khan would be a good fight for Floyd and that's why he won't fight him. Manny would be a difficult fight for him and that's why it never happened. Floyd will only fight those who he knows he can beat. He knows MM cannot do any better and that's why the rematch is happening. Since when does he give rematches?
If you throw one jab with floyd he will counter over or under it all night. You gotta double and triple the jab with him to really rack up some points and you gotta jab up and down imo
Nobody can avoid the jab. You can slip it every now and then. But maidana needs to be careful. If he changes his style then mayweather will beat him easier.
