Is why FMJ fights aren't considered even more boring than WK's fights? Both are great fighters. I have to admit that FMJ's skills are beautiful to behold and he would beat Pacman. I just find watching FMJ so boring - at least WK stops them most of the time...
I think the people calling either one plain boring is a deluded hater. Wladimir had a fight with Ibragimov which was not highly entertaining, but who can blame Wladimir for that one entirely? It's not as if though Ibragimov put it all on the line when he was being thuroughly outclassed. People like to talk about Floyd fighting Baldomir when they're happy bashing him, personally I found the FMJ - DLH fight less entertaining than the one Floyd had with Baldomir, but thats just me.
You can't help but admire the man's skill, but I agree he can be involved in some snooze fests. His power has become less effective since he moved to Welterweight, thus he doesn't take nearly as many risks as he use to.
I think both of these guys can be very dull. I am no fan of Floyd, I think he's a jerk, and Wlad seems like a cool guy, but form an entertainment point of view, Floyd's fights give you more to see. Floyd displays more skill. He has an inside game that consists of more than clinching. Floyd is able to adapt too. He throws a wide variety of punches, fights well from all ranges. Also, Floyd is not a foot taller then most of his opponents. Floyd being cautious is more forgivable because he does not hold the same physical advantages that Wlad does.
