Floyd... Make Floyd come to you. Use a good strong jab, and keep it pumping all night long. The jab helps neutralize his speed. Now, flat out REFUSE to chase Floyd down. Floyd loves for his opponents to take all of the risk as he stays in his shell and picks them apart, because they are too over anxious to put their gloves on him. Make Floyd come to you, take a half step back every time that he punches and force him to be the one who over-commits on his shots and capitalize on the openings that he gives you. Other opponents have shown that you can be effective with a good jab, and you can also be effective countering when he takes the lead and presses forward. That's the key to beating Mayweather. Make him come to you, and make him lead.... force him to open up and that will provide you with your opportunities rather than draping yourself on him while he is shoulder rolling your shots and counterpunching.

I expected more out of this thread. Then again... I love to analyze fights and fighters.
