Roy Jones Jr vs Joe Calzaghe A Disgraceful Fight.

[Taeth]

I don't think he quite as hard to hit as Floyd Mayweather, but Bernard is a better inside fighter, and I think he is sneakier with that right hand.

I think he's harder to hit. Bhop can slip, force misses, and step around punches.
PBFs strong point is his rolling. Floyd parries and blocks alot of oncoming punches and rolls straights.

Bhop would rather not get hit at all whereas floyd wil take a shot in the arm or glove.

With bhop its like hitting wind and nothing but wind, then you are grabbed when you finally have a chance to connect.

With floyd.. You land punches that are rolled off his gloves and shoulders..but atleast you hit something lol.

I will reiterate, Floyd is harder to hit cleanly. I think they have similar level of skill but Floyd is a better athlete with a little quicker reflexes p4p.

cant argue with that.
haven't seen anyone with floyds reflexes in a long time.

What makes floyd so great on top of that is he is a text book fighter.
He does everything by the book for the most part. And his offense doesn't consist of
combinations. He throws 1 punch at a time. There's always a pause in his combination.
He looks for the immediate opening before throwing another punch.. he's pretty brilliant.
