    Some *******s got owies on their vagina's because I rated Floyd at a perfect 10. So what does ESB think?

    Can anyone ever be a perfect 10? I'd say...8 or 9. For me he doesn't quite sit on his punches enough even if the opportunity presents itself for me to give him a 10 and I am a little...wary on how he handles a quick snappy jab. Saying that everything else is pretty much perfect and that is nit-picking at its finest.

    I'll say a 9 just to keep you happy, M...although I'm a in a pretty bad mood today so I feel more like 8, I'll give him in a 9 though.

    He's a solid 9. Very, very good but not 10/10.

    9.8 Could sit on his punches more. That is really about it.

    Haha how can he not be a 10? I'm not really a big fan but he's the best in the sport, in what way is he technically lacking for the people who rate him a 9? He can throw any punch from any angle perfectly with perfect balance and timing. He can cover up, slip, shoulder roll and turn southpaw with no problem whenever he wants.

    the best i've ever seen.

    if i was going to give any boxer a 10, it would probably be Floyd.

    But i'm sure theres room for improvement so 9.5 seems fair.

    I would say technically yeah you can be perfect, but that don't mean you will win all your fights, other stuff comes into play, like heart, mindset, Chin, stamina, just to name a few.

    Technical ability alone doesn't with you fights.
