    I was using how that fight transpired as a hypothetical to help explain my question.

    M you goober. The conventional ordinal listing goes in descending importance order.

    1. Clean effective punching
    2. Ring generalship
    3. Defense
    4. Effective aggression

    It's number three of four. Not the least important criterion but in the bottom half.

    I wouldn't even score defense. Defense just stops you taking clean effective shots, which is a great quality, but you also have to land shots even with a quality defense.

    Though MVC knows this and is trolling.

    Floyd doesn't need polished, he had masterful defense but also very quick hands. He would land very cleanly throughout his fights.

    His defense was great, buy so was his counterpunching.

    I'm really surprised floyd hasn't tried to come out with some new fake theatrics to take the attention away from Spence/tbud fight bcoz ppl aren't talkin about him no more exactly like how lebron James did with his fake goin to retirement after being sweepd
