    duel between two non-punch pressure fighters, with Floyd being a shade more aggressive. I think Weaver was just as skilled as Patterson, and probably had the same level of chin, but Patterson was the more active of the two. Once they both begin to unload things would get good as both seemed to spring into action after a good scare. I do vote Floyd on more aggressiveness and activity, but it would be close, as I don't think Floyd was significantly better than Weaver.

    Say, InMemoryofJakeLaMotta, you just find an ancient Mike Weaver DVD collection in your boxing dvd library? The past few days I've noticed probably fifty Weaver vs. Whoever threads, and I think you started several of them.

    I haven't made any Weaver threads lately and this thread is old.
