    I don't either.

    Floyd seems deadset on fighting 5 more times max, so retires at 38 or so.

    It was beautiful to see how easily Floyd just disappeared off the ropes. That part was Bernardesque

    Yeah, duck under the right hook and back in the center. Floyd is constantly losing the center but constantly gaining it back that way. Guerrero couldn't keep him there at all, clueless. That really was like a sparring session. Marquez landed more solidly than Guerrero did.

    Its not new. he fights that way against every southpaw he's fought except Zab. He tried it with Zab and got lit up for the first half of the fight. Zab was able to counter Floyd before he could escape. Guerrero, Ortiz, Mitchell, Corley all got pot shotted.

    This is why he said guerrero is flat footed, he was going to take advantage of that flaw from the moment he signed the contract
