    Disagreed. There is a blueprint which was used by DH, Castillo in both fights, and partially Cotto.

    Lots of pressure, Lots of double jabs, get Floyd to the ropes on the defense, focus on the body, use body and head combinations, use left hooks to the body.

    Cotto and DH were too old to sustain the pace. Castillo arguably beat Floyd twice IMHO.


    However, it remains if there is currently a fighter out there who can effectively implement this plan.

    Oscar and cotto had a lot to do with 154
    Castillo fights were a long way back now, and the second fight was no blueprint

    scary thing about Floyd now is that he is still very quick, but also brings the wisdom of experience to accompany him to his fights before he has slowed down
    saying Castillo "arguably" won the second fight is wishful thinking at it's best
