If it’s only three rounds then I think Floyd loses. The Japanese kid is fast and can fight, Floyd is slow and has never been a fast starter or a volume puncher. Floyd has lost half his fights if we’re scoring after three rounds, and when he throws more punches he gets caught.
And yet McGregor would’ve won if it was a three round fight. Floyd is shot and a slow starter. He’s going to lose this.
Floyd isn’t 19 years old anymore, and that was on point scoring. Not pro scoring/current Olympic scoring. Potshot and run was the successful style when Floyd was in the Olympics.
If this is a kickboxing match then Floyd, even with the 10+ weight advantage, is likely to lose. Tenshin is a top kickboxer. I do not doubt that floyd has trained in throwing and defending kicks, knees, backfists, ect... but he is not ready for a 20 year old podigy like Tenshin. If this is going to be a boxing match this is a waste of time.
Good, he hasn't earnt it. Why should he just get a huge fight when others have to earn it? He's 0-0 in MMA, stop giving him all this undue credit. He has to earn his shot just like everyone else does.
