People, including me, dismissed a lot of fighters chances vs Floyd because of speed

    It was a factor in this fight but Chino is so much slower than Floyd. I honestly thought Floyd was going to beat him easily. Margarito had a real chance. That bull**** about hitting air all night because he's slower, even I said it. Margo had a real chance. Better stamina than Maidana and wouldn't have felt Floyd's punches. Floyd knew it and retired.

    yeah it's a good thing to be fast when the center of the ring is where the action is, but it doesn't help to hit fast if your being blocked and pushed to the ropes
