    A serious study of Matador bullfighting footwork would help anyone fighting Horn. Wait a minute! Horn? Bull? Head-butting? Is there a connection there?

    The question is can he refrain from kicking or going for a takedown and choke-hold when frustration kicks in as it usually does for Floyd's opponents.

    The man is 40 years old ffs, let him enjoy the fruits of his labor and call it a day, Floyd was 38 when he fought berto, Is that really a bad fight for some body at 38 years of age? a young ex world champion? Hes fighting Connor at age 40 and making a boat load of money let the man live, Why do people still expect him to be fighting young world champions at 40 years of age? Most fighters are long retired at that age, give it a break.

    Can you people not rest unless there is a chance this man will come back in his 40's and possibly loose to a young prime champion?

    I would give some of the current top welterweights a good chance against 40 year old man floyd but I would pick 40 year old floyd over, 40 year old, spence,thurman,horn,many,brook,khan, etc every day of the week.

    Floyd is 40 well past his prime but hes that good he can still compete with the very best. Haters just want to see him loose so bad.

    exactly, people are so jealous of him and what he's achieved that they just hate for the sake of it. If you truly cant appreciate what hes's done in boxing and how great he is then you shouldn't watch boxing full stop

    yeah lmao, people who say he 'runs' do my head in. Canelo and many other opponents had 36 minutes in a small ring and couldn't get near him whilst Floyd picked them off. that isn't running, its great boxing.

    There's got to be a point where he should stop. 50-0 is a nice, rounded number and it sounds iconic.

    The running is just another excuse, you only have to look at the punch stats to see that, if hes running how is he managing to punch you in the face for 12 rounds? Like you say a boxing ring is small if your so tough why can't you hunt down little floyd?

    The sweet science is the art of hitting and not getting hit, floyd is the best at that, He doesn't care about getting into a war and taking punishment or pleasing the crowd,He's not the biggest puncher but he still punches you in the face all night long and doesn't let you him hit you back, This drives people insane. For me its hilarious and genius. I can imagine people like the OP going crazy at the TV screen every time he wins and his face looks like my avatar.

    Floyd has always said he didn't care about breaking marcianos record hence he was happily retired at 49-0 and only made the berto fight to honor his contract.It wasn't until Connor started calling him out that he decided to come back and fight him because he would make more money than 95% of boxers will ever make in their entire career's.

    Pbf is retiring after Conor why? Because he will make over 100 million dollars to fight him. Horn won't give him that type of payday and the fight would have to be in Australia to generate real interest. That's a no go for pbf.

    No he wouldn't Maidana is 2x the fighter horn is. Just because horn arguably beat a shot pac doesn't mean he beats pbf. don't get ahead of yourself now.

    Bernard Hopkins thought that Joe Smith Jr. would make a easy routine fight to sign off his career on and look what happened.

    There's no way that Mayweather will take a chance on Jeff Horn becoming his Joe Smith Jr. and ruining his perfect record even if its just a small chance.

    If 51 = Canelo 2 it may activate genuine TBE.
