    He threw combos that were perfectly fluid, just short. He would put more together earlier in his career but he was never MAB or anything.

    Check out his combos he was landing on Gatti a great display of combo punching.

    That was a great performance, but if you look closely, Mayweather wasn't putting any fluid combinations like Jones, Leonard, Camacho or even slower fighters like Dela Hoya and Barrera.
    I believe that was because he is incapable of throwing a sloppy punch, double edge sword in my mind.

    Too many to list.
    This is the list of single punch fighters who lack activity and frequent combinations.

    A few:

    -Canelo
    -Mayweather
    -Thurman
    -Vlad Klitscho

    Then there is the other side where fighter throws combinations but they are wild and ineffective.

    -Shane Porter
    -Marco Maidana
    -Jean Pascal

    Barreras pocket combo punching was about as beautiful as it got. You couldn't throw a prettier combo than that.

    Barrera was actually the better and more versatile combo puncher than Marquez.

    The combinations Floyd landed on Ortiz were class, top tier.

    Froch isn't what you call fluid
    But Groves has some pretty fluid KO's can put some decent combos together
