    He is more exciting now. More flat footed and is willing to mix it up. The cotto fight will be very exciting.

    Ya I feel you. I think Floyd should invest into a real strength and conditioning coach soon.

    For the people saying he didn't look good against Ortiz,I'm pretty sure had the fight gone on longer we would have gotten a masterclass!Look at the first 4 rounds against Judah,De La hoya,Hatton and Mosley.Floyd usually takes over around the 5th or 6th!
    Realisticly Floyd won every round against Ortiz which was a bad sign for Victor.If you dont catch Floyd early,you're ****ed.Floyd has slowed a bit,but he fought flat-footed againt Oscar but 2 and a half years later showed great footwork against Marquez.
    I think Floyd's feet are still great,but since the public backlash after Baldomir,has decided to stand a bit more.

    as everyones mentioned he's obviously lost a lot of his athleticism but this new floyd is intimidating, its looking ugly for everybody from 140 to 154

    like somebody pointed out, he's a bully now, he forces you to fight going backwards, now that he's flat footed and fights in the pocket he conserves energy, it's brilliant the way he's evolved from being an outside boxer

    :patsch:patsch:patsch

    Watch floyd at super featherweight and then cone back to me. All the people saying he is more exciting now and has more 'pop' in his punches don't know floyd at 130
