Most of Floyd's opponents make a large mistake, head hunting. Manny's switching from had to body as becomes necessary with his speed evens the odds for a few rounds but if anything wins this fight for either man it is consistent application of strategy and in Manny's case is his throwing so many punches a round consistently. In other words don't let him breathe, acknowledge those shoulder rolls and quickly throw sharp left hands often to the left because most right hand fighter have to set up that punch. Head hunting as most of Floyd s opponents forgot is the propensity to miss and miss often makes your best shots turn into arm punches. You have jelly rolls instead of biceps as the fight goes on. Like Rocky Marciano used to favor, hit what you see.
That's a pretty good point, head-hunting Floyd just leaves you reaching at times, especially if you're the shorter guy, and mixing it up to the body is key for keeping him guessing and opening up opportunities with combinations.
