Originally posted by Sugar Adam Ali View PostNot so much it being brook's skills, but more to do with Floyd's age. Youth with a good jab historically causes older elite fighters trouble.. You could literally replace the names in your post with Taylor, Dawson, and Hopkins.. They weren't expected to outbox Hopkins, especially Taylor, they only had size and power.. I think brook fits that mold and would cause an aging Floyd a lot of problems, especially with the jab.. Jab neutralizes speed, and both oscar and cotto had great success using the jab vs Floyd.. I don't see how it would be any different with brook.
Secondly, Dawson and Taylor both had fast hands. Brook does not.
A jab can cause Mayweather problems but you need speed aswell.
Brook's a boxer, he's going to be on the outside with every single disadvantage in the book. There is 0 percent chance he outboxes Floyd, zero. Brook is a perfect style for Floyd, I wouldn't be surprised if he shut him out.

Theatre of the unexpected is so true.
Most thought Garcia had no chance against The Machine, Khan, or even Morales ( who by the way went 12 close rounds with Maidana)
Oh and dat "lucky", "crazy", "amateur ", "ridiculous", left hook, dat keep landin on all the superstar fighters doe.

I Just think at Floyd's age none of the top welters will be easy outs for him like they have been in the past

I don't see a boxer who boxes at Floyds pace beating him.
Especially if your feet and hands are slow ike Brook.
Brook reminds me of Canelo at times. I think a fight with Floyd would look similar.
