    Floyd would have taken it just fine. Might have stunned him pretty good. But doubt it would have dropped him.

    Floyd would never walk onto a shot like that, and I'm surprised Loma did. But he'll learn from it.

    Floyds greatest asset was discipline. He gets cocky but he doesn't put himself in danger like Loma does. But then again Floyds style doesn't rely on keeping constant pressure on his opponent. Loma was knocked down because he was caught while both feet were planted in front of his center of gravity. I don't see that happening with Floyd which is why when Floyd was caught with shots, even though it looked like he was rocked, he managed to stay up or hold on tight. Except for thar one Judah kd.
