Does Floyd really run?

The man lacks what boxing is all about, drama. Leonard getting up and knocking out Lalonde. Three minutes of hell with Hagler/Hearns. Gatti/Rueles, Gatti/Ward (1,2 and 3) Holyfield giving everything he has to beat up any man who thinks he has a right to get in the ring with him. Maeweather may just be too damn good for his own good. Love the way he moves in there, like liquid lightning. Fast as hell, power? Hell yeah! But who really cares, we go for the DRAMA. A truly great story must have a plot and ultimately, a moral, not just blah, blah, blah. Dig it!:hat

 

of course he doesnt. Its just that people want him to stand like a statue to give his opponents the only chance they have....and then maybe, their wet dream may come true....that he may actually lose. Jealousy is a terrible thing.

 

Ruiz is a smart fighter. He sure as hell still is a hugger.

When you throw 1 punch at a time making less contact as possible, when your on the backfoot all night, when you clinch everytime your opponent gets close...you are running. Fact. Wether is smart or not is not up for debate, just to answer the thread, it is running. Like I said, I dont blame Floyd for doing it against Oscar & Baldo, hes oversized and if I were him id do it too. People are just in denial of what he is actually doing.

 

Excellent post!
