    lol... well most fighters arent fighting southpaw and have lightning fast hands with very good power to boot.

    No shame in getting tagged by judah... spinks has a great defence and he was KTFO by judah.

    Oh, Floyd is nowhere near invincible, haha. That's why I pointed out how even the smaller/slower Marquez was catching him with that right-hand. Judah did really well at first, I was surprised...he timed Floyd coming in and got a technical KD, even if it wasn't called, and he was actually countering him, hitting him with body shots and all. He even put him into a shell with his biggest shot of the night, that left-straight...
     
  4. Yr saying this about the guy who just smashed up Cotto, who bullied Zab? :huh

    Here is the problem I have with your post and video...It contains about 3 minutes of Zab getting the better of Floyd looped from a 36 minute fight yet thats proof the Floyds defence is not impeccable? Are you serious? Really??

    Styles make fights...Zab had Cotto on Wobbly legs as well...
     
  8. Yes im serious. Im not suggesting that Floyds defence is not impeccible. But that video shows its not impregnable.

    The Zab fight shows why Floyd is so good. Zab got trashed and won 2 or 3 rounds in that fight. Despite this, people want to point to that fight as a blueprint to beating Floyd. If the blueprint to beating is a fight where Floyd's opponent landed 18% if his shots(including single digits in total connects in 10 of 12 rounds), and where Floyd connected on 46% of his shots including more than twice as many power shots, that tells me beating Floyd is extremely diffucult.
     
  10. Yeah. Pac is a hard hitting slick southpaw as well..and he doesnt die in the ass in the second half. ^ ^
     
  11. Beating Floyd IS extremely difficult. Everybody already KNOWS that. But to those who act like theres no way in hell that PAC will be able to lay a glove on "fortress Floyd" that footage should be very compelling.

    Floyd's ability and skill in the ring has never been questioned.

    :rofl ANd get this, after the first 4 rounds, where Judah supposedly did so well, Floyd had still landed 2 more punches and thrown twice as many. Not to mention the "KD" was Judah stepping on Floyds shoe.

    I'd certainly tip Floyd over Pac if they ever fought... But he must fight him first.

    No one is saying that it's impossible to land on Floyd. That would be ridiculous. However, it's very hard to consistently land on Floyd. Forget about edited footage. I've watched the fight numerous times. Again, Zab landed in the single digits 10 out of 12 rounds. Quit simply put, this fight is a poor example of how to penetrate Floyd's defense. What's even more amazing about that fight is that Floyd was coming foward for most of that fight. To continually come foward and barely get hit is remarkable.
