Floyd's resume isn't as good as it could have been, but don't put Zurdo in the same sentence as Floyd. Corrales, Gatti, Judah, even the faded version of Pacquiao that Floyd beat were all MILES better than anyone Zurdo has beaten.
Isn't that with most Boxers these days?, We all have to wait to when they finally sign on to a close to 50-50 fight just to get a real idea, the rest is all board chatter.
He doesn't have blazing speed but if you noticed he hardly gets touched. His defense is superb. He is a lefty. He has long arms so he can strike from distance. He bangs it to the body. It appears most guys are broken down to the body. The negative I see is that his punches are not straight which diminishes his reach advantage. He will have a 3" reach advantage against Bivol.
Yeah & at that weight not many are that fast, but i guess comparing him to Bivol's speed especially when he can go inside & then out in exchanges might be the difference, he does seem to be very sturdy & tough overall though.
