    Floyd is one of my favorite fighters but I believe the only boxer that had a chance to break through that impenetrable defense was southpaw Paul the punisher Williams with height and length advantages over him and the work rate he sustained would have gave him problems and I truly believe he is the reason why floyd retired the first time

        I didn't say Pac won the fight, I scored it 8-4 for floyd, I gave Pac rounds 4,6,10 and 12, but it wasn't a domination. The rounds floyd won were only by a few punches.

        So where are these rounds minus 5 that Floyd landed more than 10 punches?

              Floyd has never had a tougher time landing on anyone than Pacquiao. He was able to clearly dominate every southpaw he fought but he couldn't land more than 10 punches a round on Pacquiao.

                I used to think this but Paul Williams doesn't fight tall. He would have put himself in Floyd's punching range and would have been countered to death, IMO.

                P-Will was a good fighter though. I enjoyed him especially at welterwight.

                  I'm asking a question bro. Which rounds did floyd land more than 10 punches?

                  How do you dominate someone landing less 10 punches a round lol That's not a domination.

                      He was in complete control of the fight. All he had to do was use his jab to keep him at distance and time him coming in. Pac did nothing to take Floyd out of his comfort zone and force him to increase his activity.

                      He won the fight as easy and economical as anyone could possibly win the fight. That's why it was domination. He took a guy that is used to throwing 800-1000 punches per fight, cut that in half, frustrated him and made him completely adapt to his pace.

                      This is like the true definition of ring generalship.
