    u know ur **** though judging by your posts i've seen..:good
    sorry for mistaking you for a one fighter follower...

    to the thread though he is more flat footed now...he can still box off both ways...but notice how his feet are NEVER in a position to be off balance...

    the couple times i have seen him off balance were after getting hit in the corley fight, zab fight, and than again when he tried to throw a punch seconds after being rocked the second time and stumbled forward in the shane fight..

    however...the way he is able to manuever and take his opponents angles away is what impresses me...HE LITERALLY STAYS TWO STEPS AHEAD OF HIS OPPONENTS...LIKE THE MOVEMENT THEY SHOW HE REACTS UPON TWO STEPS BEFORE THEY SHOW IT...NOT SURE IF THAT MADE SENSE BUT MY HEAD A BIT CLOUDY RIGHT NOW IF U KNOW WHAT I MEAN:thumbsup:spliff

    He's nowhere the mover he used to be. He's relying more on his reflexes then his feet.

    right...well if floyds footwork is overrated than pac's power is overrated..

    U can not learn some of the **** floyd does with his feet inside of the ring...everything he does involves his footwork being just as crisp and sharp as his precision punching

    :patsch Why do you say such stupid ****? HOW are those even related? Floyd's foot work and Pac's power have NOTHING to do with one another. Jusus...

    Lance...Don't think were on the same page..not talking about the speed of his feet and the quickness he uses...

    I'm referencing the technical brilliance behind his footwork...how he uses his footwork "defensively" to take angles away from opponents..

    floyd without his footwork is like Zab Judah without his mind late in a fight..HIS FIGHT GAME IS ALMOST NON EXISTENT IF HE DOESN'T HAVE THE EXTRAORDINARY FOOTWORK HE BRINGS TO THE FIGHT, TECHNICALLY SPEAKING..

    What do you think on his Floyd's footwork? Do you feel it's key in his fight game? And try and understand I'm not in reference to him being more stationary or mobile..Im talking about his footwork from a pure technical point of view:good

    Definitely exceptional footwork, I remember Carlos Baldomir chasing him for 12 rounds and could not catch him.

    He has great footwork. But TODAY, he doesn't move like he used to. That's not debateable.

    :lol: I did not understand? You said if Floyd's foot work is overrated, then so is Pac's power.

    Look, don't get pissy if youi make a stupid comment and get called out on it. Maybe it'll stop you from doing so. But now, you are just trying to save face. Fairly obvious with the nonesense you just wrote here.

    Just say thois to yourself....there is NO correlation. NONE. Was stupid to suggest. Look in the mirror, say those words, then your clean! :thumbsup

    What a dumb thing to pick an argument over. What he was trying to say went over your head.

    There are too many uses of the word square for me to understand your reply.
