    it will make a difference considering that the elbow is how he sets up for the straight right which in my oppinion is his most impressive punch.

      He won the super lightweight belt or light welterweight. It was at 140. Judah's quicker than Baldomir Floyd didn't have a problem. He just let Judah throw himself out the first 3 to 4 rounds. Floyd was smiling when Judah was swinging wild at him. If Floyd can move and Baldomir can't trap him and hurt him then it will be a long night for Baldomir.

        baldy didnt have a problem making judah dance either. if floyd does those things he will cruise to a very very boring ud. this has the potential to be a tremendous waste of money, however if baldy can use his size and strength advantage to win it will be money well spent and a good thing for the sport. floyd losing will draw attention and excitement, because if he wins at this weight he will just run more and more.

                What the **** is this getting on the bike ****? Using the ring and your feet is part of the art of boxing. He's not really running away he's trying to make his opponents come to him, which they usually do. A lot of boxers dance Ali did it, what makes it different? I also know that boxers tend to move around the ring when they are in trouble, I think it's a smart move if you're dazed. You're not supposed to stand there and take unecessary punishment. But when has Floyd really been badly hurt? Not ever really so I wouldn't call what he does, "getting on his bike."

                  The last time I remember Floyd using that elbow technique was against Henry Bruseles. The elbow/forearm is used to hold them in place to land a punch or to pick their head up. It's a thing of beauty, don't you agree blockhead?

                      I agree. He crippled Watson with legal shots. His rival from Ilford used illegal shots to cripple McClellan.

                      The honorable Juyjuy once said how Hamdan's knockouts were beautiful, while Benn's were brutal and ugly.
