    Watching guys like Amir Khan, Andre Ward, Timothy Bradley ect, you just have to realize Floyd was on a completely different level at their in their careers. As good as they are and may yet be, you can see the flaws in their games. Looking at FLoyd in this video, he literally has everything youd want in a fighter right off the bat. His movement, his timing, his defense all perfect even at 21 years old. Its gonna be awhile before we see another fighter as perfectly technically refined as Floyd Mayweather.

    Hernandez got in some good shots and was a good fighter. Mayweather showed what level he was on. This was an enjoyable fight.

    I agree, sometimes I find myself rating these young fighters too harshly because I try comparing them to Floyd at their age. There's fighters who are 25 and 26 years old still considered prospects and Floyd at 21 was taking out the best in the weightclass

    jab to the body
    pull counter
    check hook
    leaping hook

    so many signature offensive maneuvers for a defensive wizard

    Exactly. Think about. Floyd established himself as the greatest 130lb fighter ever. Before he was 24 years old. Its insane.

    Its hard watching Floyd fight then watching some of these young guys fight and their mistakes they make.

    The G was able to beat down your countryman, the same guy who made your hero quit.
