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??? |

You're the first to mention De La Hoya's name. According to Floyd he weighed 147 fight night. http://www.boxingscene.com/mayweather-left...otto-147--52590 I'm the first to mention De La Hoya, because Floyd said the same mess in that fight, about coming in at WW. Even in that fight, there were no unofficial fight night weights, so where does that leave us? I almost wanted to stop reading your post when I read, "According to Floyd...", but I was curious as to what the article had to say. Floyd has lied to the public before...as every fighter, manager, promoter, etc. has. |

I didn't believe that shit at all. |
