If floyd would've pressed the action.....

Yes, it's up to Roach, Buboy, or the ref to make the TKO happen to save emmanuel from a KO at the hands of Void.

 

I've read through some of the comments and...

I believe Mayweather was going for the KO against Marquez...I think if he actually sustained his attack for 2-3 rounds he maybe would have gotten him out of there. But saying that, Mayweather hit Marquez with some goods shots (with the weight advantage) and Marquez was still there...all credit to Marquez.

I think Mayweather definitely wanted the KO against Mosley, this isn't just my opinion...I think this was apparant to see. Mayweather was planting his feet whilst throwing his punches...and this is the first time I have seen this in a long time.

If Mayweather can bring more combination punching back into his arsenal (like he did at 130-135lbs), especially against Pacquiao...I find it hard to name a boxer who can possibly beat him...

 

Thats Mayweather just being the nice guy, against JMM...

Mayweather did not get out of 2nd gear, you and i...and everyone esle know this deep down.

 

The reason Floyd doesn't knock guys out anymore is because he fights safety first. Back in the lightweight division he used to let his hands go a lot more consistently, and put the punches together. He was a much better fighter because of it.

Now he's become somewhat of a past-prime Roy Jones, simply relying on potshotting and out-maneuvering his opponents with his athletic ability. That style will eventually bite him in the ass when he faces a guy who's got a high workrate, good physical abilities, and is not old, slow, or has bad stamina. If Pac didn't have a shorter reach then Floyd there would be no question in my mind who would win that fight. But because of Floyd's reach advantage, you gotta have it about 50/50, or tilted slightly either way.

 

If he would have pressed more, and not cared about rounds:

Marquez easily. People think Marquez was still up because PBF couldn't put him away, PBF chose not to, so he could get some live action rounds.

Others:
Mosley(though he could have stopped it in the 9th had Bayless not jumped in for no reason)
Judah(I really think a stoppage here was possible before the brawl, Judah had no answer and his face looked like PBF had taken a lead pipe to it)
Gustavo Cuello

other than that, I don't see anymore that he could have taken it up a notch and stopped.

 

I think he would have stopped Mosley. I also think he would have stopped Marquez.

Unfortunate, because I like both fighters a lot.

 

No, they are friends!

He would have KOed everybody but he would have been hit a lot more. NO EXCEPTIONS. No more flawless shutouts nor near zero hitrates.

Thats what Floyd fans like about him and hate about Pac.

 

why are they on cell phones?

But yeah, i heard they were friends and that apparently Zab got his ass kicked in a gym sparring match.

 

They're talking to each other over they phones?:huh:think

 

and risk getting hit?

 

PBF doesn't press the action for a number of reasons.
One he has brittle hands and wants to protect them. Throwing more punches means more chances to hurt your hands.
Two he's a defensive counter-puncher who is content on outboxing you and wining by UD.

With that said I have no doubt in my mind that he could have stopped Zab and JMM if he wanted to. He respects JMM and had no bad blood there so he didn't want to stop him, plus he needed the work after being off for almost 2 yeras. Zab was on his way to being stopped but fouled to buy time.

 

I agree with all three, especially Judah. If he didn't low blow Mayweather, he would have stopped by Mayweather.

 

I was going to say he was protecting his hands for one, and two if he sits down on his punches it would be easier to get caught. His style wins fights, If it ain't broke don't fix it. " I still don't like his style though"

 

If fights were still 15 rounds? Mayweather would have probably stopped all of his latest competition.
