    I'm going to get shot for this, You have no argument so you get nasty. Don't worry I've been called worse by better, but first watch Napoles with the sound off. You can time his movement. Evey move is on the same beat. Yes rythem is important, but not when it's predictable. This is pretty common with Cubans. Maybe he's good enough to get away with it. However if you have a good ring IQ. You should be able to pick this up pretty quickly, and/or if your trainer is worth his pay he should see this on tape, and point this out. It's obivous that Napoles was good enough to get away with this to an extent. However He's never been in the ring with anyone as skilled and ring smart as Mayweather. Yes this includes Cokes, Griffith and Monzoon He's also prone to cutts.
    So even if I'm wrong with Napoles being easy to time (I'm not just watch any youtube video of him). How dose he handle the timing and accuracy of Mayweather?

    Mayweather's accuracy ring IQ and defense lead to a lat round stoppage on cutts.
