    mayweather's systematic destruction of n'dou for me was impressive...not as impressive as the hatton knockout but still incredible

    n'dou was bigger, hit like a mull and mayweather fought his fight to prove he could. he dominated every step of the way and knocked him out with 3 brilliant straight rights in a row

    my favourte floyd fight by far. n'dou actually fought well, had a good corner and great gameplan and was still destroyed. i love ricky but he fought pac like he was ****ing drunk...possibly the worst performance/gameplan of the year

    For a concise moment of pure drama nothing Floyd has done tops Pac's KO of Hatton. You can put whatever connotation, spin and reasoning on the circumstances that lead to the KO you like. But if people are honest with themselves, treating that KO as it's own entity, Floyd hasn't done anything like that.

    Chico Corrales that was very impressive, and to be honest with you I did enjoy his fight with Judah, even though Judah is mentally weak it was fun to watch after Judah got off to a fast strong start Floyd adapt and start to break down judah with good solid body shots how often do you see Floyd working the body like that?

    Destruction of Corrales
    Destruction of Gatti
    Going toe-to-toe with N'dou
    Toe-to-toe against Chop Chop Corley
    A master performance in every way against Hatton

    Yeah, the Zab fight was entertaining. Zab looked for a way out like usual when he's starts getting beat up! LOL

    All of those were admirable achievements but, putting aside all allegiances, do you feel they were as exciting as Pac's KO of Hatton?

    PBF always works the body if you just pay attention. He has very under rated body work.

    All great fights. I would say nothing Pac has done is impressive as that fight Money had Chico.

    these two...n'dou performanc was phenomenal and i think the way he outthought and adapted to hatton is being slightly underrated. he took everything a prime, prepared and focused hatton could offer and countered it perfectly. he pulled out plan b and executed it brilliantly when his usual strategy wasn't working. pac's knockout was more impressive as a moment in time: as a fight though, i think what floyd did might rank higher

    Ex****inactly. He knocked out a 500 pound wrestler and broke his nose:D. Also the way he dismantled Gatti was incredible.

    And I still will take that beautiful check-left hook against Hatton over Pac's KO.

    I love a great left-hook. You could see Floyd looking to set that punch up and when he had the perfect opportunity, he landed the perfect punch. The shear Art of what Floyd does is more entertaining for me.

    I was excited by Pac's KO when it happened, but it does not have the lasting appeal over time for me that some of Floyd's highlights do.
