    The desire to keep coming doesn't relate as the fighter being more technical. PBF doesn't have to move forward to win rounds and fights. He can soften opponents while backing up. :D

    Now if you are talking about their incoming fight . . . JMM always comes in strong in the middle rounds up to the last. He is like a diesel engine . . . slow starter.

    Floyd clearly. He is very hard to hit and is a nightmare match up for anyone.

    Not even a debate imo, its Mayweather and easily.

    Marquez is more conventional, that is the only argument you can make, but as far as technique goes Mayweather shits all over him.

    Marquez defence is average. Mayweather has the best in the business.

    That's what happens when you cherry pick. Besides, most knowledgeable fight fans had FMJ losing to Castillo in their first fight.

    Floyd by a fairly large margin.

    Floyd, Marquez is not far behind. The fan fav is J.M.M because of his ability to make fights a WAR.Sometimes the kid just say's F boxing, let's slug it out right here lol..

    Floyd is the better technical boxer but JMM is the better fighter. JMM also hits harder than Floyd does, I think he is more than capable of pulling a win in this fight!

    IMO, RJJ is/was the best boxer of the decade.

    That said, his fundamentals were not the besta and he relied on great speed and athleticism.

    That would leave FMJ as the best technical boxer of the decade.

    Saint Bernard may be the best technician you'll ever see in the ring. Outside of a good chin, he doesn't have any oustanding attributes, but through hard work and an unbelievable ability to out-think every opponent he faces, he destroys great fighters.
