The Cotto fight was a bit of a slugfest by Floyd standards. He got hit an awful lot by Cotto.

Why would I do that? With all the FMM/boxing experts in here, i would get better results with this thread.


If what you're looking for is Mayweather standing square in front of another boxer slugging it out until someone falls, no you're not going to find that.

There's plenty of youtube videos of taxi drivers and "boxers" with no talent beating each others brains out. I'm sure that'll satisfy what you're looking for.

I am asking if there are any FMM fights that are like that. Because the ones I've seen, minus the one linked are all the type I described. The old fight that was linked, was actually pretty good to watch. He doesn't really fight like that anymore from what I've seen.

If you want to see him go toe-to-toe with a big puncher, watch the Corrales fight.


See this wasn't hard. This is the type of responses i was hoping for. Not people looking to knight for his record or fighting style.

He just dances around the ring, runs away and collects boatloads of cash. Blame the idiots that pay for that

I don't know how a guy can get a $100 million to dance, I mean box. America is stupid for buying paperviews with him in it. He isn't even a heavyweight, so his boxing career is nothing to me. Get in there and do what your supposed to do. Box!

If you want to watch a physical fight where he gets roughed up some, I'd say watch the first fight with Jose Luis Castillo. I wouldn't really call this one a slug fest, but Castillo smothered Mayweather and took him out of his comfort zone. If you're looking for a fight where he stands in there and trades with someone, the Phillip Ndou fight was pretty entertaining. Ndou was overmatched, but Mayweather was uncharacteristically aggressive in this one and Ndou didn't back down.

He is going to outbox the hell out of Mcgregor. I just seriously doubt he knocks him out. Ive already said their could be some 10 to 8 rounds late in that fight when conner is exhausted and lost all hope.

0 losses. Why would he ever stand toe to toe with anyone?



Machismo?

Damn, Floyd would be hated in Mexico if he were Mexican.

Didn't Floyd hit Gotti on a break command and then pummel him after that?

Only time I recall Floyd "brawling"

You won't find a bigger Gatti fan, but Thunder was out classed that night.

Floyd used to go toe to toe but it's usually Floyd beating the shite out of his opponent while they miss Floyd. Best example is Gatti.
