What's the formula to beat Floyd?

[mike ruler]

I think even the most devout Floyd hater has to agree he's still tough to beat. So how do u do it?

[MANGLER]

Outwork him. **** accuracy and **** power, just swarm the guy and don't allow him to get off punches.

Be A WW, Out Will Him, You Gotta Want it More..

That is the only way ... totally overwhelm him and his defence with punches from every angle. And do not let up even for a second.

If you're going to step back\let up to admire your work .. "forget about it"

maybe that would work in 4x4 ft. ring but in reality footwork, good conditioning, hand speed, and reach make keeping him from getting off punches impractical in a boxing ring

Floyd always waiting on fighters to throw first so he can counter punch them and likes hitting guys when they dont expect it coming. You have to be patient at times vs floyd and keep a distance from him if you're not planning on hitting him, because then he might just go on offense. Lots of fakes good timing is a key.

You have to also make him come foward by stopping the action, but its basicly smarts is what beats him because he fights for points and runs. He also likes throwing a right hand than jumping on to grap you. Same tactic also used by Hopkins. But floyd isn't as fast now and isn't that big of a puncher, but he does know how to finish a guy off if he hurts him. So its import to be aware of his slicky shots.

floyd has a few flaws that a WW can exploit:

1) economical with punch output
2) can get stuck in a defensive shell for stretches
3) little power at WW
4) not stronger than a real WW

so what do you need to beat floyd?

1) be busy
2) have stamina to stay busy
3) be willing to take one (since floyd doesn't throw 2) to land one
4) push floyd around the ring

that means the only guy at WW that can beat floyd is mosley.

i respectfully disagree because i think the only person who can beat PBF is pwill. (granted he can still make WW)

that means the only guy at WW that can beat floyd is mosley.

Or maybe Paul Williams.
