    Zab, or Floyd?

    I thought Zab-Corley was dead boring, but Floyd-Corley was entertaining.

    Floyd, indeed, has a very good chin.

    Not a fan of PBF's fight choices, but his chin is definitely one of the, if not THE best in the world, very underrated, as is Calzaghe's too as a matter of fact. I think their speed and work rate overshadows their ability to take a big punch without flinching

    floyd PUNISHED corley for hurting him. I remember in the last few rounds, fmj was brutalizing him, talking ****, and knocked him down a couple times.

    Wish Floyd would take the Cotto fight. If he won, I think he could retire on a high note and shut everybody up who's bitching at him about it.

    Floyd contrary to popular belief can take a punch with the best of em. I don't think I've ever seen him REALLY hurt before.

    Although I don't think this is a good example..isn't Corley considered to be ranked with Sven Ottke and Paulie Malignaggi in terms of power?

    Floyd can take a punch, no beef with that. His defense is excellent but what happens when he fights a top prime guy like Cotto?

    For any PBF lunatics who say Hatton, please note they are entirely two different fighters in style and Cotto CAN BOX HIS ****ING ASS OFF:good

    He's proven that at 47. If Floyd takes all Cotto's punches? His Chin rating will rise significantly IMO.

    He is a boxer. He does not punch with power constantly, but he can crank out a power punch or two. He has dropped a few people. That was a hard shot he hit Floyd with, with POWER and floyd did not see it coming either. You dont have to be Mike Tyson to crack somebody. How long you been watching boxing?

    I dont think Cotto would get too many power shots other then the jab and a few straight right hands. Floyd will be touching Cotto all night though.

    Take it easy. I was asking a question...especially when one of the MAJOR complaints about the #2 WW is often ragged on for being dropped/wobbled by the "feather fisted" Chop Chop Corley.

    I wanted to know if those people are "off base" or if he just caught Floyd with a nice lucky shot?

    Perhaps, but it aint real til it does. I see a different version of the fight of course. Cotto has the game to compete much more than u think:yep

    If Floyd does like you say? Again his Chin rating goes up:good

    Dont mind me, I am an *******. That is just the way I post. Chop chop can crack a haymaker if he sits on his shots but that is not his style though.
