He dosent seem to be in good athletic position this way, and the way FLoyd fights Delahoya seems to be more open for Mayweathers Straight right, Maybe he is just fighting this way cause its Mayorga but he looks real stiff in there... Also Oscar handspeed dosent look so pronounced of course you lose that with age, but just observations...
Honestly...I don't really even factor this fight in anymore.

Go back & watch Hopkins vs Oscar.

Oscar was looking good in the first six rounds. Oscar was the smaller man & he went toe to toe with Hopkins & was firing from all angles & showed good form. I think that a debdicated Oscar will give Floyd the fight of his life.

I've followed both of them for the duration of their pro careers & I honestly can't see how anyone thinks that this fight is either going to be a tactical bore or that Floyd will run from Oscar.

The fight has great written all over it.

I agree but, there are some things to be considered in terms of style matchups... I think this fight has memorable written all over it, Oscar is a Modern day great balls to the wall duck no one bring em all on win, lose or draw I leave my mark on the sport kinda guy...Floyd is a technically polished defensive wizard with a phenomenal ring intelligence, operating at a high level and in his prime.... THIS FIGHT WILL BE A GREAT ONE
