Tonight is only Floyds 3rd fight Since Hatton 4 years ago.....So.......

[JT Rock]

As a big Floyd fan I get frustrated but then surprised because the guy is so talented at adapting and gameplanning. You see him dazzle like the Gatti fight, then you see him Box more and slow the pace down in other fights. The Hatton fight was a great fight to me because he out Hattoned Ricky Hatton. The spoiling and dirty play wrestling and wearing Down Hatton championed, Floyd out did him.. Who knew No one, no one ever expected it.. Look at Mosely, stood in front of Mosely took his best punches and even after he almost went down he reset and began stalking Shane and pasting him.. I think most think of Floyd as a fast slick sports car type fighter myself included, but forget he can be a tough demolition Derby car too. At the lower weights Floyd fought hard an offensive, he didn't just all of a sudden forget how to fight like that

If your training and sparring are good then ring rust is a myth. It's gym rust, not ring rust.

I agree to a point. Gym rust is really what alot of fighters have when in fact they blame ring rust. But training and sparring cant prepare you for fighting in the ring with all the media and fans and lights and pressure. So there IS something to that aspect of being rusty in the ring too. May be psychological at most, but its undeniable.

if he looks bad expect Paq to sign up to fight him.
