this is where we disagree, bullrush is the way to do it at this point in floyds career, punch,punch punch, pressure ,pressure ,pressure.the only way robert gets stopped is if he stands their and looks at floyd  if he gives mayweather space and time to box, if he jumps on him, he wins it. floyd does not want to fight, robert does......DESIRE, heart and a world class chin win out here.

agreed. you have to hit floyd everywhere. standing around, letting him get set, trying to outhink and outskill him is not going to work.

take three to give two is roberts only chance here.

if hes still there in the sixth round without suffereing too much damage hes got a good chance to grind out the 36-year-old floyd.

fwiw, both leonard and sweet pea(guys that relied heavily on speed and reflexes) faded badly after the age of 35.

you';re delusional pal.  mayweahter at this point in his carrer is punching much harder and is fighting much more agressive.  @ 147 he's a very strong.  in fact  @ 154 he was just as strong as cotto was was prolly 165lbs vs floyd 148 lbs.  

if robert bull rushes he's gettin hurt.  he needs to fight behind a jab and fight in spurts he could possibily steal the fight or make it very close.

After watching showtime the other night it may be safe to say Floyd is going into the management end of boxing. Showtime stuck their neck out for 3 years on an aging fighter. The way it usually goes for these guys is all of a sudden they come out and just lost a little to much and fade to the hungry guy. Soulpurpose thinks this fight is it and he could be right. You know what was funny to me....Floyd talking about doing time. What a joke he is. He did his month and a half like the biggest box on the planet. If he were in general population in a tough penitentary he be someones crying woman. I'll bet he does think twice before he hits a woman again. He is at his toughest when smacking a woman. Robert G. is a tough guy. Family man and hungry. He will be ready and relentless.

The family guy comment is meant to mean no issues. Good foundation. Only thing on his mind is this big fight. That is tough to find these days. I think he lives a clean life. More Champs lost their titles in the bar rooms then the ring. No worries...
