    The jab is his weakness.

    Id say Mayweathers performance was more down to the fact he moved up in weight to 154 and was wearing 10oz gloves (as opposed to the 8oz originally requested)

    Whilst Mayweather isnt in his prime anymore I think we should see a better performance in his next fight if Prison hasnt worn him out that is

    No one is as fast at 35 as they were at 25.
    This being said. Mayweather is more experanced at 35 than he was at 25.

    Knowing Floyd, he's probably been working out a lot, he's a gym rat, with nothing else to do, pushups and sit ups and crunches galore

    cotto and dlh are converted southpaws.

    cotto and dlh had success with jabs.

    cotto and dlh are the most intelligent fighters floyd has ever faced.

    give cotto his props. floyd didn't look any different to me...he was just in there with a world class opponent.

    **** what u heard about the cotto that faced pac. it wasn't the same guy. weight drained...no real trainer...no real strategy....shortly removed from plastergate. floyd faced a much better version of cotto.

    10 oz is the norm for 154.

    they used to wear 8 oz at 147...but that changed prior to cotto/margarito 1. they requested 8 oz for that fight and i'm not aware of another fight that used 8 oz gloves at 147 in vegas since. stop using the 10oz excuse.

    When Floyd is up against good fighters, he struggles. That is why Floyd avoided Cotto in his prime..

    Run in place or something like that. Not trying to be funny but Floyd doesn't strike me as the type to read a book. He's probably been actively working out with the limited stuff in his cell.

    1. Floyd didn't struggle against Miguel
    2. Floyd is 4 years older than Miguel
