    Has Floyd ever foght any good/elite swarmers?

    I am too lazy to do a research, but know that some of you who know his career better, can answer.
    The reason to ask is that stylewise, swarmers are the hardest match up for pure boxers like floyd.
    Plz dont spread the hate or make this thread into another "Floyd is ducking Margarito" thing.

    jesus chavez swarmed him pretty well and gave it a good fight, castillo stayed on him all night in there first fight, corrales tryed to pressure floyd but didnt cut the ring off and get his ass beat really bad...chavez and castillo did the best at swarming him..

        Yeah, Castillo is the obvious one, even though I do not consider him a swarmer in classic sense.

          the guy in ur avatar carlos famoso hernandez did ok against floyd as well, and was the only one to kd floyd lol, even though it wasnt a legit knockdown, floyd went down cause he hurt his hand really bad, he showed a lot of heart in that fight..

            Emanuel Burton busted Floyd up pretty bad. He had Floyd bleeding from the nose and mouth.

                Yea Mayweather thought he could just brawl with Hernandez and knock him out, and he changed his style after he hurt his hand.

                  Hernandez made Floyd go back to defense when he tried to square up and fight, thinking his handspeed would overwhelm him.

                    hernandez was no match for a one handed floyd

                    floyd punished hernandez with one hand, plus floyd busted his hand in the first castillo fight as well. if his hand was healthy he would have punished those guys. I say the only way pbf gets beat is if his hand gets so busted in a fight where he can't continue at full speed and the other guy sensing this closes in for the kill
