    Awesome video from Youtube, all credit to LeeWylie1. Nice vid, and I appreciate videos like this.

    At 37, still great but obvious he's faded and passed his prime. He'll be ripe for the picking soon.

    Watching that I couldn't help but notice how Maidana was beating Mayweather to the jab fairly often, even with his slow shitty jab.

    I can only imagine what The Special One's, fluid, ramrod, piston-like, world class jab will do when it bouncing off Mayweather's gormless dome all night. :-(

    If I was Mayweather, I'd duck Brook. :deal

    And the funny thing is, if the fighter knows what he is doing, will work combinations off of the jab and combine it with good footwork, upper body movement, and angles can really put a beating on him. Too many guys stand in awe of Mayweather, and there really isn't much to stand in awe of

    Mayweather on his worst night beats Brook. Brook isn't the guy to do it.

    Thurman deals with Brook

    :deal

    Lol you ride Brook hard, bro. But yea, Floyd struggles against the most basic punch, who'd a thunk it?!?! It's like the jab is his Achilles heel.

    He landed it the rest of the fight. He got countered once, made the adjustments, and still landed his pull counter.

    I'm not so sure Thurman handles Brook that easily, but that's a fight I definitely want to see. I even made a fantasy match up.
