The onl round i thought dlh won convincly is when he threw the jab and made floyd back up a little. thats it. I mean u could of given him 3 or 4 rounds for pure aggression but thats it. I actually think floyd won that fight in second gear.
At times Oscars pressure didn't look like much more than token pressure.. It 'looked' like he was coming forward, but Floyd would have just been thinking,, " ummmm, I SEE the great ODLH punching me, but I don't feel it"....
Anytime opponents come at Floyd on a continual basis though it actually looks like things begin to even up... I think that's what is being refered to...
Floyd dominance comes when Fighters just can't succeed in putting the pressure on so they try to out box Floyd..

There isn't a single boxer of our time than can 'outbox' Floyd Mayweather.. I honestly beleive that..

But continuous pressure has been proven to even up a fight with him... 50/50 even well, I wouldn't say that.... But if I had to give one style of fighting that would ever have a chance of winning out of Floyds style, it's someone who puts continueous pressure on him round after round and doesn't mind getting countered many times to get in there and rough Floyd up.
