    Sounds right :good
     
  3. not necessarily. it depends on the relationship the boxer has with his team. roger mayweather made floyd what he is. he knows him like the back of his hand and can break down the style of floyd's opponents. he can tell pbf what to do and how to fight. so far its worked like a charm. so explain to me how its stupid for floyd not to watch footage of his opponents? if no one from your team has studied your opponent, then yes it would be stupid for the fighter himself not to watch his opponents' fights. i refuse to simply say yes or no. generalizations dont always apply to specific cases. moreover, floyd's a very special fighter. whether you like it or not.

    I think his wars with fraizer were worse, much worse. he didnt take that many clean shots from foreman. Sure some got through but not that much. Took more of a beating to the body and arms than the head. With fraizer though he took a lot of head shots.

    Not a single time did I ever mention Floyd's name when I asked you this question yet you bring him up in every response. I feel like I'm talking to a psychopath.

    I'm not talking about anyone. I asked a simple question and you have been unable to answer it which is almost an answer in itself.

    Another idiot that thinks money somehow correlates to intelligence.


    This explains why the smartest people always win the lottery. This explains why all the boxers with the highest ring IQs named in this very thread, like Bernard Hopkins, are also the highest paid in history, and those with the lowest ring IQs, like Mike Tyson and Manny Pacquiao, make very little money.

    This explains why psychology has scrapped IQ testing in favor of bank statements.

    I think also with Mayweather that demonstrates his IQ is his defense. It's not just his defense, but how he knows what his opponent is about to throw before his opponent even knows. It's like ok he threw a right cross and I ducked, so that means he's going to throw a left hook.
    It's not his reflexes sometimes that makes him avoid shots, but his ability to predict what's coming next
