    yeah, his style is impetuous; however, he doesn't fight guys who can push him ever since jlc beat him. so, it's usually not that compelling.

    I ended up hitting, "seldom," but should have hit the second choice. I think he's terrific, it's just not that amusing for me to see the guy's exhibition matches. If he looked that good fighting people in his own division that would be fantastic.

    Yes I do enjoy it. A lot actually, probably more so when he was at his original weight class. What people don't seem to understand is that he moves around a lot more now because he is fighting guys who are naturally bigger than him.

    Yes, easily. That's what boxing is all about, it's about landing and making your opponent miss. That's what earns you Gold medals in the olympics.

    UFC fans won't understand what that means though. However, anything about making your opponent tap out from grabbing balls they will give you a full detailed explanation about. Oh and eye poke KOs. :lol:

    Yes, but he could definitely do more. Its like watching a guy who isn't giving 100%, on the grounds that he doesn't need to.

    I'll say it's because of the opponents he fought lately. Like i said his skills are superb and it really showed when he was a light weight. It will be nice to see him breaking down big punchers and top welters. That's when you can say "Wow that's boxing"

    If we are talking about his style, not who he is fighting or his personality or anything else, then yeah his style is amazing.

    the guy fights one smaller fighter and as a result he fights guys "half his size"? last i checked he's fought bigger guys on numerous occasions, far more often than smaller guys.

    i like floyds style, I wish he would let his hands go a bit more but i enjoy great defense as much as great offense
