Well i know this may be a little premature but how do you see this fight and the outcome?? Here's my take: Floyd has begun to be a less mobile fighter and is getting hit more often as a result. We know Floyd has trouble with SPs and he's never faced a tall, rangy, SP with decent speed and a great chin, snappy jab, crafty long right hook that comes fast and around the high guard and is naturally the bigger man.

With that said, i see this being a difficult task for Floyd, he'd have to find a way to take away the jab so he could make him a one-handed fighter (something Miguel failed to do) and we all saw how May got knocked down by the shorter Zab's right hook.

I honestly believe Austin is capable of winning this fight if he uses his height, jab and right hook, May is a slow starter and if Austin can put rounds in the bank early and force Money to fight out of desperation thus creating opportunities for May to forget about and walk into his right hook as he rushes in trying to make something happen.

I can see AT pulling it off by a split or majority decision.

Your thoughts???

Floyd is beatable (as all fighters are), but dude's ring IQ puts fighters in awkward situations.

There are some guys that I gave a chance to beat Floyd, but they mess up in the beginning. They're aggressive, but mess up when they think that he's hittable early (which he makes obvious), then he starts that feinting shit.

The feints ALWAYS mess up his opponents, and that's basic boxing shit. Before we know it, we see guys feinting with him (bad move) and winging their shots, just trying to land something...that's when Floyd starts picking up the pace.

I saw Trout give Cotto a lot of feints last night, so we'll see of he can win the feint contest with Floyd. Trout also got caught with some straight rights last night, let's see how that goes. Dude is big as HELL too...and I made a point that Trout was Margarito's size, but with better speed...which lead to Cotto's demise. Gladly Trout doesn't throw many combinations, or else Miguel would've gotten stopped last night.

I think Floyd will stay away from this fight, for the above stated reasons.
