    Floyd s fighting style is suited for people with insomnia.

    It was uneventful but not completely void of interest from a tactical standpoint.

    And it was a cakewalk.

    It was a mismatch. What did people expect when you match the top P4P fighter in the sport against a regional journeyman who got lucky?? :patsch

    It was a great boxing display from Mayweather, but extremely boring due to the lack of action and dominance. I'm usually a fan of technical boxers, just not ones who fight safety-first and don't open up alot. During his 130lb days he was much more exciting.

    Whats worse is they predicted Baldo to win, just like they are Margarito vs. Cotto.:lol:

    Yeah, I like pure boxers who show great defensive display with lots of varied technical work, not safety first range boxing that keeps work to a minimum, such as Calderon and Mayweather in several later fights like Baldo, DLH and half of the Hatton bout.

    Boring as hell fight, Floyd could have done a little more and had an open canvas to paint punches on.

    Wasn't Hatton supposed to crush Mayweather as well? Like he grunted ha-ha-aargh pounding that Humpty Dumpty-like sparring partner on 24/7 and the clueless wonders populating this board all went : 'WOW'. :lol:

    Yep, that's why I'm a fan of people like Whitaker, Lopez and Mijares. They perfectly intergrate there defence with there offence, it's wonderful to watch. Very few people enjoy watching a fighter sit at long range, move a little and throw 30 punches a round.
