Floyd is very good at using his elbows against his opponents

Wow.

Great thread.

 

He sometimes uses his elbows/forearms to push off and create distance, but I've never seen him throw an elbow like they do in MMA.

 

he uses it sneakishly to create distance everyone knows this.. even before the ortiz fight because they kept bringing it up in the 247 and to the ref come fight night .. and he dident use the elbow inthat fight not even once!. there were some headbutts by ortiz but...

complains about dirty fighting then tries to headbut all night

 

That was a good fight, Hatton is the last proper test that Mayweather had. No one else has shown that kind of heart against Mayweather in recent years. Most just get in the ring with the intention of going the distance, Hatton tried to win.

 

Yes, he does.

 

Your right he is excellent isn't he. The ability to use them effectively within the rules of the sport.. thanks for pointing that out.

 

Some fighters will push a fighter off with both hands when theyre laying on them against the ropes. That leaves you open for punches over the extended arms. This way you get them away from, and you're still in an offensive position

 

Hilarious!

 

I'd say he arguably has the most effective set of elbows since Eusebio Pedroza.

 

:rofl atsch

 

Pernell is pretty good too
