    Floyds all wrong for everybody lol.

    Its not the style many have this type of style and fail, its how good Floyd was at perfecting his entire game that made him so effective against all types that faced him.

      Marquez got beat by Bradley..... Floyd was a bad matchup for Marquez.

      2 counter-punchers but one x3 faster, taller and bigger

        Its why I say nobody in history smaller than Mayweather could beat him, hes skills can match and often surpass anybody and then give him a size advantage, nope he cant be beat by a smaller opponent .

        If you look into the years of sparing the words of anybody thats been in with him, he is STRONG and hits harder than what people think, they all say this , even as recent as a few days ago at 43 and retired he spared a 168 pro with a decent record and did 45 minutes straight and backed him up the guy said Floyd hurt him with pin point body shots.

        Marquez wanted nothing to do with any kind of a rematch because he was so thoroughly beat and out skilled he wanted no more of that, Nacho said Mayweather was an Alien from another planet that you cant beat with a stick.

          Exactly, each would have been better, but the skills difference would have remained in Mayweather's favor.

            Whole idea is built on a false equivalency. Maidana and Marquez don't fight anything alike, nor have similar body builds. It was the physicality that gave Mayweather trouble with Maidana, mixed with some surprisingly solid skills namely his jab. Marquez is a pretty clean fighter for the most part, and he doesn't try to body up and outmuscle his opponents.

              Maidana was a MW on fightnight, I think Ariza said 165 and they planed it, he said Maidana was lighter for the second so weight could be a big factor in how the two fights panned out.

                floyd is an ATG, but he looked better vs the likes of canelo or marquez , much better than when he fought someone like maidana... and if anyone thinks maidana is better than marquez or canelo then it must be watching the wrong sport...

                      130-135 Floyd would put him to sleep within 4 rounds, easy.
