    No its true most trainers don't know **** about it. They think its all about the lead foot and outside angle.

    The truth is its really the ability to work the inside angle that separates the men from those who Googled it.

    There are people on this forum who honestly believe Floyd can't beat a southpaw... Floyd don't just beat southpaws he destroys them. Zab, Corley, Mitchell, Ortiz, Guerrero, beatdowns

    Since you clearly lack reading comprehension and critical thinking skills, lets try mathematics:

    True or False: A nickel is fundamentally different from five pennies.
    True or False: A nickel is equivalent to five pennies.

    Actually it's a stupid question and goes to show how little the two of you actually know about boxing. But perhaps Sergey Kovalev and Miguel Cotto would be better suited to answer the question than would I.

    :good

    Rewatched Floyd vs Guerrero the other night and noticed he's ALL about getting the inside angle against southpaws. He's actually excellent at getting in there and landing the right hand, which is just weird.

    Ward used the inside angle consistently against Dawson. It's pretty much the advanced method of dealing with southpaws.

    i'm sorry but this is just plain ridiculous to the infinite power..

    this reminds me of all the BS people talked about Roy Jones before he got KO'd and then humiliated afterwards.

    10 times smarter than Bradley and Clottey's defense nowhere near Floyd's, i mean.... just childish.

    So you admit that Pac was humiliated after the Marquez ko?

    i remember watching specials on Roy Jones, that he was supernatural, he chased chickens and showed speed normal humans didn't.. etc...

    Tarver comes in and puts him down and then he got into the habit of taking naps on the canvas afterwards.

    All this talk about Floyd being almost supernatural... A great fighter for sure but there isn't a single fighter on his resume that impresses me. Arguably, Flody's toughest opponent ever has been canelo, who is Canelo? remind me...

    a great fighter no doubt but not to the almost supernatural level Floyd fanatics elevate him to. Maidana gave him fits, past his prime DLH almost beat him, Castillo almost beat him, Judah put him down and again, his toughest opponent ever is probably Canelo..

    floyd hasn't been tested by a great fighter, Manny is the fist great fighter Floyd will face, fact. He has proven to me he is a very good boxer, smart and physically gifted but IMO, Floyd has lacked great rivals to propel him to greatness.

    Like I said, the southpaw stance isn't some great puzzle. Just keep your lead foot outside of his, and use your straight right. It's not quantum physics.
