For Any of You Who Think Floyds Moves are Original

similar.........but mayweather is more precise and more accurate and put simply... more perfect....

 

Wow, I've never seen or heard of him before. He's wonderful.

 

To get your attention:deal

 

Oh no, you are showing me something I have seen before! What ever shall I do

 

Thanks for caring about Roy buddy. I am sure he appreciates it:goodTaking the time to look up those pics shows you really care!

 

Now Roy Jones Jr. thats a style that is original and will never ever be duplicated again ! Much respect to the former lb for lb great however his fate will be sealed against Tito in January

Hopefully he will retire after getting ko'd

 

:roll: do you think loche's jab was as good as floyds or his right hand or power and techique.

anyways this was in the 70's. floyds dad was learning these moves already.

so 100 years isnt a good claim is it:good

 

Floyds moves aren't original but he is the best to ever do it. His defence is stupid.

 

Locche had a unique type of defense. But I don't think it was more complete that Floyd's defense, so I rate it below.

 

Very interesting, thanks for the video, i havent seen that guy before.

 

In many ways, Floyd is a one of a kind. However, this video proves nothing that people didn't already know. No knowledgeable fan would ever say Floyd's defensive style is unique. The Philly shell has been around for a while, everyone knows this.

 

I still don't see the point of this thread.

PBF's defense is the sum total of different aspects of defensive philosophy, so that if you took each aspect by itself, it would be at or near the highest level that we have ever seen. His natural ability, reflexes, defensive mastery, and footwork, by themselves are only surpassed by a handful of people. But no one has reached the same level of ALL those things like PBF has. That counts as unique in my book.

If you took away the best aspect of any of the great defensive boxers, all you have left is an average defensive boxer. If you take away the best aspect of PBF's defense (and I can't even tell what that is), you would still have a defensive master who's better than 90% of the competition.
