The Marquez fight showed Floyd's inCREDIBLE defense at PERFECTION...I LOVED the defensive Floyd...his skills are so amazing, its like witnessing a miracle thats not supposed to happen...the Mosley fight..Floyd got hurt, and u expected him to run, but he came forward...his corner told him to go back to boxing, he said screw off, and continued standing toe to toe...my favorite...but the Ortiz is the best...People say Floyd is not aggressive enough, not mean in the ring, not bloodthirsty...he came forward with a mad face, slick, smooth, sharp, every single moment, Ortiz realized he couldnt attack Floyd cuz of his defense, he started backing up, and INSTANTLY Floyd read him, and began coming forward throwing that uppercut which looked so smooth even tho it missed...its just the way he threw it so instantanious...then he throws the flashy combinations in round 4 which caught some of us by surprise..I love surprises...then the knock out..I mean who thought Floyd, soft punching, anti-aggressive, had it in him to do that?...Floyd has turned into a completely different fighter....his defense is so good, he can fight you offensively and you cant touch him...its amazing and I still watch that fight, so thats my pick
It was a bad performance, but what I think he means is that it pushed Floyd to a new level...what happens if you try to make Floyd uncomfortable and put pressure on him?...Nothing happens to Floyd, but something bad will happen to YOU if you try...That showed Floyd's greatness in that fight
The defense was so enormous in that fight, that it became a tad boring in the later rounds...its like this defense is amazing, but after 12 rounds we seen allot of it...finish him off...That fight was perfect for the first 10 rounds...I forgot the gatti fight..Floyd was INCREDIBLE sharp in that fight...like Bruce Lee on steroids...but the zab fight...Floyd was losing, and it was one of his first time exposing that he didnt need a speed advantage...he can just figure you out...one of my favorite fights
I actually enjoyed the Mosley bout more. It was one of those bouts where his opponent was reduced to being able to do absolutely NOTHING. NONE. ZILCH. Mosley just stood there too afraid to throw anything because he knows too well that FMJ figured out EVERYTHING he has.
Floyd ***** slapped Gatti for 6 rounds in front of his fans.. It was the most entertaining. Corrales TKO10 was his best performance, but beating a prime Ricky Hatton is the most significant.
