Floyd Mayweather Jr. Offensive Skills {video}

Pac is a terrific fighter but neutralizing a right hand is not his strong suit.

 

I've always assumed hes adapted his style because of his bad hands and he cant afford to 'bang away'. he picks his shots and makes them count. it makes more sense from an energy conservation standpoint and saves his hands. he must be the most well schooled boxer around today

 

Floyd Jr does it all.Punches from the center of the ring,on the ropes,backing up,coming forward.
Even when Floyd's in an exchange he still goes from offense to defense in a split second,knowing when to guard and when to let his hands go.Mayweather has very good instincs in the ring.

 

He was brilliant at 130 in terms of his offensive skills. Some of his early fights are a joy too watch, even quicker, powerful and accurate with sharp combinations, his body punching was excellent aswell.

 

Say what you want about his pre-fight antics but despite that you can't deny that he's very disciplined and has a great work ethic. Same with Hopkins.

 

The gatti fight was brutal I still have no idea how gatti didnt get knocked down. I wonder if mcgirt didn't stop the fight would gatti have lasted all 12 rounds???

 

Really liked the Judah footage. The way people write about it, you'd think Judah was actually in that fight. Floyd broke him down.

Pac throws a lot but counters do wonders to drop workrate. i want to see how many punches Pac throws while getting brutally countered.

 

PBF has some nice offense when he wants but he's not different to anyone else, throwing punches does leave him exposed sometimes.

here's some nice PBF gifs.

No he dose not throw thousdands of puncehs a fight. His offensive skills are still great. It gets over shadowed by his defense.

 

'Pretty Boy' to 'Money May' follows the same growth path as 'Air' Jordan to 'MJ': better raw tools for the formers with a more refined 'all around' game with the latters.

 

Floyd talent is undeniable. However, in the first 10 seconds of the video Floyd uses his elbow and forearm to hold his opponent heads enough times to get points deducted. Somehow, he hal always been allowed to do that. As a matter of fact, the best punch was connected when the opponent was looking at the referree amazed he wasn;t saying anything about it.

 

No it hasn't diminished. Mayweather fights according to his opponent. That's why it's hard to train to fight against him. U never know which style u will get.

 

Yeah I don't find him that impressive at welter. He seems to have a lot less versatility now, and he never uses the jab anymore or puts punches together.

 

If you think Gatti could still stay on his feet with his eyes closed then he would have made it 12 rounds. However if you use a pinch of common sense then you will have to conclude Gatti would not of made it 12 rounds.

 

He probably would have lasted another 2 rounds, and by lasting I mean barely surviving. If he did make it 12 rounds, well he would have been brain damaged and eating through a tube for the rest of his life.
