    All of this means nothing. the talk, the rumors, the hype etc. won't save Floyd come May 2nd.

    very true.

    good interview though. Didn't sound like he was **** riding...simply presented what he thinks. Interesting about Floyd's underrated power. Most (all?) of the people Floyd's fought comments on his power and how he hits harder than they expected. Makes you think why all these naysayers keep saying he's feather fisted.

    I've never bought into Floyd being feather fisted. He's no KO artist but he does have reasonable power.

    I have no doubt Floyd punches sting especially when he picks his shots and they are right on target, but you have to admit Keith Thurman showed him up on power by knocking Robert Guerrero down in the 9th round.

    Thurman was fighting a different fight and took punishment for his efforts. Do you want to win how mayweahter did easily and take little punishment. Or win how Thurman won, he gave some and took some.

    Floyd has shown he has power to get guys respect. Guys like canelo didn't just walk him down, he makes guys pay with enough power for them not go at him recklessly.

    this is probably the easiest money this guy has made in his life, mayweather can't punch himself out of a paper bag. i will bet anyone $25 amazon gift card that mayweather will not knockout pacquiao.

    He's a very hard hitting man.
