Mayweather fans, is Floyd's inactivity, age, a worry for you.....

Wrong, here's the blueprint:

Or this: :bbb

There's a reason Sinclair has been ducking fighters throughout the years... That's the main reason his loss record is 0 which it even shouldn't have been after his loss to Castillo... and why he's know as void...

Sad when people rave about his so called 'iron chin' because he got rocked by an old mosley not on steroids...

 

You *****s are the worst... But at least you're honest... If only they were all like you... :good

 

I have been thinking this with the past year or so. He has obviously slowed down abit.

 

Floyd would mop the ring with Khan. A bit premature to be talking about that fight. Khan has super handspeed, a good jab and he does indeed have a naturally big, 'long' frame, but that's nowhere near enough to beat Floyd. Even Maidana was able to time and counter-punch Khan with overhand rights on multiple occasions, including the infamous tenth round shot...what on earth do you think Floyd would do to him? He'd pull-counter Khan's jab, hit him with sneaky shots on the inside, and take advantage of that leaky defence. He would need a round or two to get used to the speed (like with Judah and Shane) but after that it would be fairly smooth. It would be a sort of 'let me educate you, youngster' type of fight, like the one Khan had with Kindelan in the Olympics.

If Floyd shows more signs of deteriorating with age, I'd give Khan more of a shot, but Floyd didn't look too bad in his last outing, outside of a single round of trouble. I agree that Time isn't going to do him any favours, though -- he's getting slower, using less movement and maybe even getting hit a bit more. (Even the undersized, bloated Marquez was able to land a few good, flush shots against a guy that is known for rarely ever taking them.)

Pac obviously has more of a chance, due to his experience, his unorthodox, awkward style, the southpaw stance, the speed, the chin, the superb combinations (which are much more fluid and sneaky than Khan's), etc. No matter how good Floyd is, he can get rusty just like everyone else. He's human. Combine that with the age factor, and he's being foolish in dragging this Pac fight out so long. If he wants the fight, he should do it as soon as possible. He could end up shooting himself in the foot.

 

it is for me.

he has missed a big chunk of his prime,and could have fought the tougher fights,but just ended up made to fight better and be more impressive that way.

but hes"reitired" several times over.

i question his desire for boxing,he only comes back for a big payday to keep up his flash lfestyle.

he only comes back when he came create a seemingly good match,which isnt actually that good cuz he has several factors in his favour beyond style of his vs other guy.

He probably can fight at 154 easy,his frame is a lot bigger as he has aged.
this means hes less slick,has slightly less good footwork and movement.

real shame hes not fulfilled his potential and decided to take his foot off the gas to go gamble and act like a rap star.

 

i do think some of his style relies heavily on his movement and speed,take some of that a way and floyd isnt quite as slick as he once was.

 

Would it be a worry if he was fighting literally anyone else in the Welterweight division? No.
Is it a worry because he will most likely be jumping in with Pacquiao after a fairly long lay-off? Very much so.

To be fair though, it's not as if he won't be in shape, and it's not as if he won't be motivated. He realizes this will be his toughest bout, and I'm sure they will be working on the perfect gameplan to neutralize Pacquiao's offense.

(Assuming this bout happens in November/eventually).

 

i think floyds able to adjust his boxing style to suit his physical atributes

the man has boxed since he was born into a boxing family

hes a boxer through and through and know how to fight regardless of his attributes

 

He was being sarcastic, he is not a fan of Mayweather lol.

 

Hes not a ***** just a ***

 

The people that only watch to see Mayweather lose are the ones that care and think about stuff like this.

I don't think Mayweather as cautious as he is would fight a huge fight without a tune up first. If he does and loses I don't think it would be because of inactivity. It would be because the guy was better then him that night. Mayweather been fighting to long and is to talented to be able to use that as an excuse for a loss IMO.

 

That's a credible excuse in case he loses

 

At the same time, Mayweather fights Pac after being inactive and beats him. He won't get credit for still beating Pac after being inactive for this long. Instead it would be because Pac supposedly slowed down.

 

haha... Floyd gonna school that ass from round 1 to round 12.. wtf are you smoking?

 

yeah I know.. So was I! hehe :tong
