Bernstein says "only one that can touch Floyd is Crawford"

Floyd won the fight against Manny based on his jab as his primary weapon. You asked for a round, I gave you a fight.

Saying Floyd doesnt have the power to KO guys is completely besides the point, as power is a physical attribute and not a 'skill'. Just like speed is a physical attribute instead of a skill.

Floyd's jab and right hands are alot better then JMM's because he can use them effectively in a multitude of ways.

Floyd is a much better body puncher. JMM hasnt won fights on an elite level with it. Watch the Hatton, Judah and Mitchell fights to see Floyd do it.

Lastly, he pulls his head back with his hands down on purpose, that much should have been obvious to you.

Again, you refuse to address their defensive skills.

I'm not ignoring defensive skills..Floyd is one of the best ever...No argument, it goes without saying.

That's just not true at all. It has everything to do with technique... Floyd lands his punches at the end of his length meaning his weight doesn't transfer properly. He has the "power" but his hands and defensive mindset coupled with the bad habit mentioned above sees him get less stoppages than he should.

Punchers are born and it can't be taught is bull****.

He does everything on purpose but pulling back like that is still a flaw... It's to avoid bodyshots but if he is feinted properly he can be hit.

I can see we are just gonna disagree...I'm kinda done with this, The margin is to small to argue

I'm not using triangle theories. I'm saying that I think Floyd would have figured Diaz out by round 3.

But didn't figure out Judah until round 4? Or Chavez until round....???? He very well might have but that's still a completely irrelevant fact..Like I said I believe Marquez would dominate the Castillo that Floyd fought but it's not relevant.

i respect any boxer who can switch stances on a consistent basis at a pro level.

there's a reason why pacquiao is fighting a useless third fight vs bradley as opposed to crawford.

crawford is the real deal.

Excellent post
