That and ignoring all those quick, sharp counters.
Watch the De La Hoya fight again, De La Hoya was not that hard to read, Floyd knew where the punches were coming from much of the time. Ricky is totally unpredictable once on the inside, punches come from all over the place and I reckon thats gonna make the difference.
