    Didnt take them well?

    Was he dropped? Was he on shaky legs when he got up?

    Why should he? Thats not how he fights.

    You may as well say "Id love to see Provodnivov put on an exhibition of sticking and moving"

    no need to go "toe to toe" or enter a 'tough man contest' when you don't have to. When you're good enough to 'hit and not be hit', then you do it. Nothing cool about being F'd up after you retire from the fighting game.

    Asking Floyd to go toe to toe is like asking a sniper to fight in the trenches.

    He said the thread was garbage almost certainly because it was critical of Floyd. Classic Floyd nut riding behavior. Truth be told its not that bad of a thread because that is a big criticism that floyd has taken over the years. Everyone says he's boring. One contributing factor is that he never ever goes toe to toe or goes for the kill (these days).

    That being said, yes fighting to your strengths is smart and if he didn't he wouldn't be where he is but boxing is not just a sport its a business too and entertainment value IS important.

    Btw, I wasn't calling you a *****. You seem to be pretty objective.

    That's ANY fan. And fighting to his strengths has been working out for him better than the guys going toe to toe. You talk about entertainment value, this "boring" boxer is the most valued :patsch

    Being boring isn't a criticism, by the way. It's just fuel for the critics.

    He went toe-to-toe with Jesus Chavez, and Emanunel Agustus. Anybody who takes punches when he doesn't have to is a fool. That's like a soldier getting shot to prove how tough he is.
