Floyd may need to consider retirement

[Free Booty Dew!]

Against who? /teddyatlas

Regarding his legs, if he doesn't hold he gets consistently cornered on the ropes. His movement didn't look fluid anyway, so I don't think you can say they were wrong. Sergio can still move too.

I agree, Floyd will bounce around the ring when his opponent is out of range and some people will interpret that as his legs being fine, he doesn't have the same fluidity he had in his prime where he did it effortlessly.

Honestly....the Floyd i saw tonight does not beat Manny

Nope, your wrong. Pacquiao doesn't fight anything like Maidana, and he's too small to physically impose himself on him like Maidana did in the first fight. May-Pac will be a pot shot contest. And Floyd will win it with his defense and accuracy. I always thought that from the start.

I see Floyd slowing down a lot, getting hit with shots he never got hit with, and missing shots he normally lands. He looked slower, more vulnerable at times and never put that finger print on the fight he normally does...His last 2 fights will be tough as i see a steep decline in him now. He won tonight clearly and i think the scorecards were to close..but he did not look like the Floyd i know

I saw Floyd counter with straight rights, demonstrated speed, great body work, and good movement. Don't know how many brews you pounded before the fight but he looked good to me. Those counted straight rights were on point. Floyd knew he had the fight in the bag and laid low towards the end and just boxed but if he felt he was in danger of losing the fight we would have seen more from him.

I thought Floyd looked very sharp and he executed very nice footwork, defense and a minimalist yet effective offense. Don't know what people are talking about, probably a lot of dudes who had too many beers tonight and need to watch the fight sober again tomorrow.

I saw it too. He looked off around the end of the 6th. I don't think FMJ has the legs for 12 rounds. FMJ kept looking at the clock the whole night -- as if he just wanted to get out of there.

After tonight, I can't see him beating Pac or Thurman. Khan would be the logical choice. FMJ can take his punch and the pull counter can drop Amir.

You're giving a lot of floyd haters and your haters a lot of fuel tonight that you may not live down.

Jose luis castillo would like a word with you

Also hes 38 and has had millions of injuries in his career of course he slowing down, he still made Marcos miss 80% if his punches. As far as him almost getting knocked out in that round, Maidana does have devastating power.

On another note I heard the whole ppv was garbage, especially Vasquez Bey

Oh yeah, he beat him in his prime didn't he

I enjoyed the card overall, apart from the Bey fight which I didn't really watch.

I think you guys are over reacting... Marcos is a hard guy to look good against.... he is rugged.... and floyd still won clearly

styles makes fights... cant sit here and say floyd is done just because marcos landed some shots, its BOXING for crying out loud

I agree, Maidana is just a rugged and awkward guy, even with that I still think Floyd looked very good tonight. He made the proper adjustments he needed to from the first time and Maidana couldn't do much about it.

Floyd will **** Pacquiao and knock him out cold before round 8.

I'm not ready to say Pacquiao would beat him. Pacquiao to me isn't looking that great right now either. I think Algieri has a good chance at the upset.

I'm actually kinda interested in Mayweather/Khan now. Khan may have the speed to pull it off.
