Wrong...........
I disagree. All you have to be in order to defeat Floyd, is another great fighter. He has weaknesses as well. He is susceptible to a good jab, he gives you his body, and his work rate WILL NOT be enough against another great fighter. The amateurish move he does with his hands to his side, gets him popped with jabs at time, ala Cotto, De La Hoya, and now Maidana. He is a lateral mover and doesn't have the best legs. He'd rather duck and rely on his reflexes, then move all of the way out of the way of incoming fire. If you have a good jab, good workrate, punch from angles, have quick feet, apply effective aggression, not reckless aggression, and a good ring IQ, you can win a fight against Floyd. Saturday night showed us all that he is a level below the AGT's. Maidana shouldn't have been able to touch him if Floyd had legs. Not to compare BUT Floyd should've been able to do to Maidana what Manny did to Rios. They are similar styled fighters. Now Manny's win over Rios looks more impressive, ey?
