If Floyd punches so soft, why the distance?

Theres one fighter i would have liked to see him fight was Margarito. I don't think he would of cared how much he was going to get countered by Floyd he would have still came forward. It'd be interesting to see how Floyd would have adjusted.

They are going to end up like Gatti.

Because boxing is a sport, and you can win by points. and if its a sport that can be won by points and winning is winning. just some people think ko's is the only way to winning. Winning is winning in a sport. plain and simple. if you can outpoint an opponent and win then thats what it is, you can tell which people like ko's and some respect the sport for what the sport is. its called BOXING not koing

because he only picks opponents who will stay at a certain distance. a couple opponents like castillo and maidana he miscalculated on. he thought he could use his feet to stay away but he overestimated his own skills.

I think its about risk and reward.

With Paulie you risk getting hit with a love tap and your reward is a pretty good chance of landing your own shot, becuase his defence is ****. So you will probably keep attacking

With Floyd you risk getting hit with a decent shot and your reward is having very little chance of landing a shot, because his defense is good. Which makes you think twice about attacking.

His official record in PROFESSIONAL BOXING no matter what anyone says, is UNDEFEATED and that bothers people, the facts state he has never lost a professional prize fight.

Floyd is not exactly a hard hitter, Pacquiao is a superior puncher.

Although Mayweather definitely has respectable power otherwise his opponents would walk through his punches.

Nobody says Floyd is a ko artist, he's a boxer and he wins boxing matches with boxing. Its what makes some haters mad because he using actual boxing to win a boxing match. Maidana's guy garcia, is on tape saying mayweather is showing people what boxing really is, BOXING. I guess some people dont really know what boxing is, not slugging and thats where the confusion comes in. Its not trying to ko an opponent every match, but if a ko comes, you take it, if not you can still win by boxing.

Why the distance between him and Pacquiao?
