    Hey guys, just finished my latest vid. Sorry the quality is not as sharp as usual. There is not too many good quality versions of his fights

    Great highlight. Fastest hands ever, one of the best combination punchers ever. Most underrated fighter ever, I rank him highly.

    I don't know if it's verbatim or not but I've seen at least something along these lines attributed to Floyd many times. It's good stuff.

    Great video. One of the best combination punchers I've ever seen. I think he's become under-appreciated, I really do. Nice work.

    There are some truly hellacious KO's in there. Speed sometimes = power and Floyd was a great example of it. Not a bad career bad for a guy not known for his power and who fought at middleweight as an amateur

    One of the all round good guys of boxing was Floyd. It was a real shame he ended up with Alzheimers towards the end
