    Body mechanics.

    I'm sorry but you don't think Floyd has great body mechanics?

    I'll have to disagree with your assessment of the spar too, I think Toney was having his way with McClellan.

    McClellan was maybe in the top 5 nastiest punchers P4P of all time, but Toney was the far superior fighter.

    That got me me to ask that question.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I think Floyd had great body mechanics. One of the better in the business. But Floyd has exceptional fighting skills- this overshadows his body mechanics.

    Floyd is good all around, when you look at it- but his superior talent is his skills and ring awareness. His speed is decent, his power is decent, his reflexes are decent, his stamina is decent, his chin is decent, his heart is fairly decent, his body mechanics are great BUT his "skills and technical skills" are EXTRAORDINARY!!!

    There is my take!

    Floyd Mayweather is boxing-fundamentals on over-drive. Doing the mundane and routine extremely well.
    Bigger man George, bigger punch!
