Floyd's chin and stamina?

[Althugz]

He never looks tired because he always dictate the temp of the fight. If he feels a little tired he will just cover up and move and pot shot. Its true that he only throws very few punches and that is so he won't get tired. You have to take him out of his tempo to get him tired but its a very hard thing to do.

I dont think the tempo of how he fights is as much to do with his stamina as much as it is his dedication to the sport. He has fought higher paced fights before and been fine. Jesus Chavez and Philip Ndou immediately spring to mind as does his fight vs Augustus.

Sure he's older now but this is a guy who spars 15-20 minutes straight sometimes with fresh rotating opponents. I think the least of Floyds concerns is stamina when it comes to figuring out his gameplan.

Sparing is not the same thing as being in a fight with someone who's really trying to do damage to you.
I believe I raise a good question, sure Floyd could end up dominating Cotto, he has that kind of ability, but what if Miguel can put some hurt on him and takes him out of his usual rhythm? Who knows "Superman" could be ripe for the plucking.

P.S. Win, lose or draw, there's no way that Floyd knocks Miguel out, that just ain't gonna happen.

Of course sparring isn't the same as a fight. I just mentioned that as one of the reasons why Floyd never tires but we also have proof over 42 fights, some of which extremely fast paced where people try to pressure him, that Floyd has never once been gassed out.

If you're hoping for that you'll be dissapointed. The only person who gets gassed pressure fighting Floyd, is his opponent.

You did strike on an important component to beating Floyd. That is upsetting his rhythm, getting off first and not letting him dictate the pace. It's why Oscar had success for about 3 rounds againt Floyd.

Also Floyd is going to K.O Cotto. Sorry. 99% sure of it. If Manny did, Floyd will want to beat Cotto in more style..and he will..eventually.
