So, who has the best chance against Floyd?

Mike Jones doesn't use his height correctly and tends to fight at midrange or just paws. He has an amateur style and isn't a heavy hitter. His speed is ordinary at this level, nothing outstanding, but not slow either.

He's also not too hard to find. If anything, Mike Jones fights somewhat similiar to Khan in utilizing foot movement, but he's stronger than Khan, albeit slower, and probably doesn't punch as hard.

Basically, all he has is size. Jones could make it a boring ass fight by basically running away from Floyd and pawing with his jab, and forcing Floyd to walk him down, but even then, Jones is easy to find.

I don't understand the hype with this guy. Soto Karass is nothing special. Even in the rematch, Jones wasn't impressive.

He still had the same fundamental flaws that start with his balance.

I don't see this guy ever becoming a star. He's too flawed from a fundmenal standpoint, and there is nothing that he has from a physical level to overcome his fundamental flaws apart from size.

You say he's improving, but a guy at this level shouldn't have those types of fundamental flaws.

If you said something like, his right hand isn't developed enough, that's one thing.

IE Cotto back in the day, but even then, Cotto still had correct fundamentals and was a solid fighter with good balance.

Jones doesn't have the balance established yet. Without the right balance, and without the right tools, he won't ever be elite.

 

I don't see how ya'll are sayin his balance is good. That's the biggest flaw in his game. He mostly throws arm punches too.

 

martinez and pw @154

@welterweight obviously pacquiao or brook

 

Pac, Martinez, Ortiz re-match.

 

shane mosley probably has the best chance. I know hes been beaten but still owt of the best mosley has the chance

 

pac
martinez
prime mosley
prime Oscar
prime Sugar Ray Leonard
prime Duran

 

go back to studying fights for a year or so

 

Really?? :huh

@147 Pacquiao has the best chance
@ 154 Martinez

 

yeah I just didn't get the idea of Coralles and Jones being similar in styles. I really can not understand the hype behind this kid. It's somehow beyond me as it was with Jacobs for example.

 

Noone

 

NO one, Floyd beats everyone. He could beat Pacquiao and Sergio on the same night.
