At work a forklift driver -- whose walking-around weight is 160 lb -- told me that he would fight Mayweather, not box and move. Really kick his ass.
Aggressiveness and enthusiasm in his voice and body, he said,
"I would brawl him out. Mayweather never had someone fight him. I mean, really fight him."
He kept describing how he would beat Mayweather.
"Mayweather has never fought a young strong black guy. I have silverback gorilla in me."
I was amused.
"Mayweather would knock you out," I said.
"At the top level of boxing, Mayweather has fought brawlers, inside brawlers, bullies, and punchers. No disrespect but Money Mayweather would first round KO you. You can't just box the number one pound-for-pound boxer without ring experience. It's a huge mismatch."
He stood quiet.
"I'm not trying to be a dick but even a crackhead Mayweather would knock you out."
Why do people think they can just get in there and bully Mayweather?!
This leads me to the question. What style(s) befuddles Mayweather the most?
Is my co-worker right? Is a young, strong, aggressive black fighter the answer to the Mayvinci code?
