    Floyd's brittle hand breaks.

    TKO Big Show.

    Drex is positioning you ..cant you see it? He is making a point to support his opinion, or rather letting you make it...that pinpoint punches from a larger pro-boxer man could not hurt a smaller pro-boxer, what makes you think punches from a 150 Lb man will hurt a 400 lb giant......

    He struggles to when his opponent is hurt and trying to get away.

    He's a PROFESSIONAL BOXER who's way fitter and a lot lighter than Big Show and he still struggles to close space.......so how does Big Show manage it??

    Best move for floyd would be to punch him in the bollocks when the ref turns around and then the check hook.

    If your not going by Big Shows size, then what are you going by? It certainly isnt his boxing skills. I understand he participates in another combat sport, but like I said, this is a wrestler who isnt allowed to wrestle. If you were talking MMA I would completely understand but taking away Big Shows wrestling and he might aswell be just another average 400lb joe. Sure he may have some conditioning but how much of that translate into boxing conditioning? If you have coached boxing, you of all people should know the difference. I know guys who can run the marathon but wont last a round in the ring once they get a broken nose and gets jab's being popped into their eyes whilstn at the same time dealing with the frustration of being hit everytime they try attempt to throw a punch.

    I'm not saying he'll hurt him, I'm saying he'd pot shot his way to victory and would capitalise once Big Show tires.

    But a well timed shot to Big Show's body would definitely hurt him.

    You are good....alos, can you see Big show repeatidly missing..which tires one out, as anyone knows, then going for the home run, throing himself off balance..even knocking himself to the canvas because of exhaustion and throwing him self off balance? Now..imagine FMJ hitting him while he is exhausted an off balacne....this is stupid, really..as long as FMJ doent engage toe 2 toe, and he wont....he would win.....this would be easier for him than facing Cotto..who has equal atributes....its talent and the mantal fortitude to back it up......Big Show...well..he has none of that....

    I am going by his size vs Floyds size, considering he is not just an uncoordinated lump with no athletic ability or coordination and would have a full training camp with a pro trainer to get some basics down.

    NOT ANY BIG GUY OFF THE STREET VS ANY LITTLE GUY IN GENERAL.

    True but I always took it that they were speaking more of confidence trumping talent.

    And as well, we're not talking about hurting someone.

    We're talking about whether Big Show could capitalise if he did knock Floyd off balance.

    Cmon....this is a mismatch...1 month training? He is all of the sudden and exceptionally trained athlete? He is a trained stunt man....make no mistake..he is not a boxer..in essence..he would brng to the ring the same thing as a big gut off the street, with 1 month training...which may actually hurt him more. Now he knows what he has to do, but cant do it...

    This is the last time I'm going to say it.

    Big Show would have a boxing specific training camp and pro trainer telling him "you don't need to throw big shots, just jab for his centreline when he engages.

    No, 1-3 months and he all of a sudden understands how to throw a jab and has the basics of footwork.

    Is that beyond the realms of possibility?


    Did Valuev have to be as technically skilled as any of his opponents in order to beat them? Or did he get by with his size and some basics.

    Ever seen him throw a lightning combo? He wins most fights with the old 1-2.
