What HEAVYWEIGHTS would you favor Floyd aginst IF ANY???

[Boogie Nights]

haha no, just pointing out that Ruiz is a joke in general

oh lol for a second i actually thought that you were serious, im thinking is this dude on drugs or what haha, but it's all good

yep ruiz been established as a joke for a long time now. didnt you know he's got a certificate for it?

[Boogie Nights]

you never know......... the golden left hook......... past prime or not all oscar needs is one good shot.

true, possibility, however small, does exsist. im sure oscar will make some adjustments, and i hope that he understands that the fight does not need to go to the cards. if he goes into the ring with that mentality then fortune might smile his way. but for me the knockdown would be satisfying enough, i just want to see this little bastard on his ass. if the ko happens, ill be celebrating for a month

He could beat some rubbish heavyweights, I saw that Video of that heavyweight that Brendan Ingle is training and he said he got the **** kicked out of him by Witter.

i don't understand why oscar tries to box a faster , quicker guy.

everytime he swings , swing too. you never know when you can catch him. floyd can't ko oscar. as the bigger , stronger guy you never know when you land that one clean punch on the smaller guy. no point trying to box with him. you can't outdecision a superb boxer in his prime like floyd. shoot it out with him and hope your bigger bullet finds the mark.

floyd doesnt have the balls of witter, if floyd is afraid to step into the ring with a good 147 pounder what makes you think he'd ever open his yap about sparring even a one handed heavy, even if that heavy is on the garbage level.

he was doing well when he was snapping floyd's head with a jab, and oscar has an excellent jab. if he doesnt abandon it, and comes on stronger, assuming he really studied the first fight, he should be succesful. i always thought a perfect blueprint to defeating floyd was the first castillo fight. oscar being the bigger guy can apply pressure without having to worry about floyd doing the same, because floyd will not be exchanging....NO WAY. so oscar better know that. and floyd is a good counter puncher, so oscar better double up and punch when floyd punches. it's nto IMPOSSIBLE to beat floyd, you just have to know what strategy to use. ricky couldnt apply pressure because he had a bunch of excuses about referee. oscar, and cotto dont clinch like hatton does, and they are by far much harder punchers. floyd will have to do double the amount of work that he did against ricky, because of the danger of power coming at him.

THis is ****** lol

I'll steal a fine gentleman's post in the other thread and post it here.
Change the names with fitting ones, and all is well.


Floyd would probably be an underdog against any top 5-10 middleweight.

But that's not to say he wouldn't beat them.
I'll explain why he could beat any middleweight out there right now;

First of all, we need only to look at history to get a clue on how exceptionally talented fighters have fared in the higher weightclasses.
Take Duran as an example. No, I'm not comparing Duran to Floyd, just follow me here.
That man was exceptionally talented, a rough and tough customer who relied on a physical style in his prime. He gained weight and eventually ventured into the middleweight division.

Keep in mind now that even though Duran is one of the best ever, he fought against some of the best ever... At MIDDLEWEIGHT.

Look at a more recent example, like Sugar Shane Mosley.
Even though he didn't fight at middle, he fought big guys in the 154 division.
Winky, who many people here figure would beat Hopkins prime for prime at 160, being the prime example.

Winky ain't no puncher, I know that. But Sugar Shane is not really difficult to hit either. Floyd carries some considerable skill advantages over him, especially at the bigger weights were one punch means more than in the lower weights.

If it's one thing I admire with Floyd, it's his ring intelligence.
He has changed his style completely to counter the advantages carried by the bigger guys he's facing.
We're talking about an all-time great defence here. This is a guy who grew up fighting guys twice as fast as the slow, robotic-like middleweights we see out there today.
Picking off the punches and rolling with them is easier for him at this weight, just look at Oscar's ineffectiveness. And keep in mind that Oscar is still faster than any of the middleweights we are talking about here.

People also forget the fact that Floyd wouldn't come into the ring at 150 either. He would bulk up, just like Jones and hopkins did, and he would fill out those legs and shoulders.
He wouldn't be anywhere near as strong as a legit middle, but he wouldn't be a pushover.
He would certainly be more dangerous than Spinks.

Again another fighter we can look at.

Tell me that Floyd wouldn't do better than Spinks in any fight, I dare you.

Just there Floyd would have a great shot at beating Taylor. If he has a great shot at Taylor, he has a shot against anyone.

He could even knock out some of them dudes with enough sharp counters...



If you are starting to agree with this or nodding your head in a knowingly fashion, chances are you are a ******.
All of this is pure and utter bull****, though I doubt many will even read this far and start to bash me without realizing this is a hoax.

Jump off of Floyd's ****, gentlebitches!
Get real

agreed that's how you beat floyd but does oscar still have the stamina to apply pressure all 12 rounds?

i say save his energy and just jab , jab , jab. whenever floyd tries to counter or come in throw a counter right or counter left hook and hope it connects. the point is whenever floyd throws , throw back you never know when you might get lucky and catch him. we don't know how good floyd takes a punch. all of his fights i can count on my fingers the number of times he got caught with a really hard , flush shot.

This thread is pointless, Floyd is not even a heavyweight. Go back to the gym if you can and rumble young man...
