    Looking at a recent Alvarez interview he like many others Claim they used the wrong gameplan against Mayweather. They fail to realize or acknowledge that Floyd's game is to adjust to whatever they are doing. You can't beat Floyd with one gameplan anyway, you need multiple abd complex strategies.

    Fighters say they will take away his pull counter...well what about the lead hook, the check hook, the jab to the body, the straight lead right, the straight right to the pit of the stomach?

    They say they'll break through the shoulder roll...what about his equally good high guard, what about movement if he decides to use the ring, circle, or fight off the back foot?

    What if Floyd starts to hit and clinch, or fight in the pocket using his forearm and shoulder to push and pin?

    It's a good thing fighting Floyd is a money fight cause trainers can't do shyt in preparing a "gameplan" to beat him. Their best bet is that Floyd takes Oscar's advice and fight for the crowd, fight stupid, or fight to be exciting.

    And a cherry picker who ducked a midget because he refused his shady testing

    He couldn't just say "I wasn't skilled enough to cope with him." Could he :lol:

    Because then they'd have to admit that they are B level to his A

    Well when most of the guys you face are no more than b level and lower of course he is the a side but then again he also faced guys who were the a side like 20 yrs ago so it's not saying much!

    If you allow him; pick a so called testing agency which accepts bribes from him, his bodyguard Bayless to ref, and his personal judges to score the fight, you will have to knock him out to win the fight; in the more or less a total of 20 seconds every round you can actually fight him inbetween his clinches. That's obviously a very wrong game plan.

    Most fighters are B level in comparison to Floyd, including Pacquiao, Alvarez, Cotto, Oscar, and Mosley. Floyd has the largest pool of B level opponents, more than any other fighter, want to know why, cause no others come close to rivaling his boxing skill!

    Pacquio was a level in 08 but we know Floyd wanted nothing to do with that version that's why he ducked him and waited for him to,lose a few more steps ..Alverez was never A level he was a hype creation I don't care how much buzz he generated !! Cotto was A level no doubt Oscar was past his best as was Mosley this is why Floyd wins against these guys they can't pull,the trigger any more but then again Oscar did well and offered fraud a rematch but he ran into retirement ! He doesn't beat then soundhe does just enough unless your a club fighter like Gatti ,Gurrero or even Berto then he looks brilliant !


    And there are plenty of better boxers than Floyd ,hell a prime Oscar is better than Floyd why becuase unlike fraud he was battle tested against elites Now a shot Oscar well he barley had a chance yet still managed to only lose by Decision..So sorry if I'm not overly impressed with Floyd displaying his skill against guys path their prime or club fighters !

    Because Floyd never gets tired, ages, suffers injuries, or endures chronic bad hands....stop making excuses for their losses. Canelo beat every fighter he fought but Floyd correct? Cotto had all the time and years he needed to prepare for Floyd, did he not?

    Mosley challenged him after beating Margarito and loss, what did Floyd do other than sign the contract?

    Oscar had everything in his favor, and still loss! Just admit Floyd is better than them, stop trying to find some special 6 months or year where they may have had a minute chance to beat Floyd! 2008 means nothing since Manny and Arum didn't sign the contract! Apparently they weren't as confident in Pac's ability as you!

    everyone had a plan against Floyd, until they couldn't hit him.

    Floyd retired in 2008, so according to this board that's the year everyone would of been able to beat him. He returned in 2009 and suddenly no one can hit him or beat him, just like that every other fighter is past prime in 2009.

    The wrong game plan excuse has been used for decades by the losing opponents. It didn't start with Floyd Mayweather.

    they all thought floyd would fight them but he was just too fast to run and earn points to win. the game plan of professional boxing became amateur boxing style. as oscar said, floyd retiring is better for the sport.
