    but there will always be the taste of "premature stoppage" in that win.

    Floyd took care of business though. I do like the Genaro Hernandez fight, but the slow motion shots of the corrales fight blew my mind. If you watch the fight at normal speed, it looks like corrales is just following floyd around without doing ANYTHING. In the slow motion replays, you see that Corrales was trying over and over to do a right hand lead shot and drop it down on Floyd, but every time he moved the right hand at all, Floyd leaped in with a left hook, hit him, and was gone, and Corrales could NEVER pull the trigger. The sick thing is its only clear in slow mo, but Floyd saw it, reacted to it, and shut him down completely. SICK. Gatti was just him doing whatever he wanted to, but there were combinations in the Judah fight where he would throw four shots and place his gloves in front of Judah's eyes so Judah could not see where the next punch was coming. SICK. And only clear on slow motion replay, honestly.

    Well, what I like about the Manfredy is how dominance had already been established, and how Floyd went for the kill and convinced the official to stop the fight. People talk about how Mayweather stays safety first and doesn't often go for the finish...This fight proved that he could.:deal

    Actually, what I loved most about the way Floyd won the Corrales fight was the way that he established the jab to the belly as an offensive weapon (often to counter the Corrales right that he was indeed trying to drop). It wore him down and set up the hook that was used to eventually drop Corrales in the later portion of the fight.

    Being able to convince his nuthuggers that he's still actually a serious fighter.

    His career at 140 and above has been a waste of time.

    Void's best performance was when he beat up a woman!

    Your best performance was bashing your dick for over a minute and not cumming.

    Corrales, Genaro, and Gatti were flawless. I think Hatton was well done too, beat him at his own game as he has done with his past five.

    Corrales, Floyd took him apart.
     
  12. Its difficult for me to choose perhaps Hernandez considering Floyd was still so young or Corrales, but I will say Floyd absolutely shut out Marquez noone has ever done that to Marquez like I literally dont remember Juan landing a thing, Floyd looked spectacular, his reflexes and timing were outstanding in that fight, size advantage or not.

    People seem to write this off but Marquez is one of the most accurate and skilled boxers in HISTORY AND HE LANDED AT 12% yes floyd came in at 146 which means he was a BIGGER TARGET MMMUUUCCCCCHHHHH BIGGER THAN but Marquez only landed 12% dont get me wrong when he landed he land dead on he STILL ONLY LANDED 12%

    Yes floyd speed was a factor but Marquez is too skilled to have speed be that big of a difference because he has world class timing and acuratice
