He hasnt showed any weaknesses, he is 49-0. If there was any weakness appearing, he fixed it during the fight and stopped it.

Idiots...
As I scroll down this thread, I see dishonest and brain-washed comments.
First of all, his defense is overrated. Go back and watch the Castillo fight, Corley, Judah through 5 rounds, Oscar, Cotto, Maidana, and of course Manny. Floyd is susceptible to a good jab. Anyone who has a good jab, busts him up with it. Floyd also gives you his body. Floyd is a reflex, lateral defender. He hardly is concerned with moving his entire body when defending. Movement, speed, and workrate are the keys to beating him. Manny did that. Cotto was doing that until he gassed. Maidana was doing that until he gassed. There is also a REAL possibility that Floyd was roided up during several fights down the stretch of his career. Maybe that's why he outlasts his opponents and never seem to tire? He was on the Lance Armstrong "juice" as far as I am concerned. The IV proved that. Period.
In conclusion, Floyd is not as great as the media and his fans make him out to be. His best career win was against Chico( RIP). Against the best opponent he ever fought( Manny), he struggled and looked averaged. All of the trash he talked for YEARS and he didn't back it up in the ring. He isn't even top 25 all-time. He would lose to A LOT of great fighters who came before him. SRL, Hearns, Duran, Prime Tito, Prime Hoya, Whitaker, Wright, Paul Williams, Spadafora, Norris.....I could go on but I'll stop there.Comment

True. Dela Hoya even pointed that out on the The Legends Speak episode during the Mayweather/Pac hype.Comment

Active hands...
Zab, Maidana, Oscar, cotto and castillo had the best success vs floyd when they let their hands go. As soon as they slowed their activity, floyd carved them upComment
