Some people have this down as an easy night for Floyd, I cant believe that.! I,m not a big fan of Floyd, fantastic ability but I find him a little dull and I have always suspected he'll look for the easiest route through his career and retire undefeated, but with questions still being asked about whether he avoided the really dangerous fights. BUT.. if this fight happens, and I'm still not convinced it will, then Floyd will get massive credit from me just for taking it. ODLH has been a great fighter and, discarding the bouts at middleweight, theres no evidence that he isn't still. I thought he looked fantastic against Mayorga last time out. He has the skills , hand speed and power to give Floyd nightmares, but most important 154lb is huge for Floyd.
Inactivity / age are the imponderables in this fight, no one knows how much they have eroded ODLH, including Floyd. I fear if Floyd wins, no matter how he wins, then he wont get the credit he deserves. For my part I have ODLH down as favourite even if the bookies dont, and I shall be having a little wager... here endeth the rant..
