juicing just isn't roids. Its stuff like HGH and other drugs that give you better endurance, like the stuff cyclists use, or allow you to recover faster both of which do not have the visual signs roids do. So just because he is not huge doesn't mean he is not doping. It also doesn't mean he is doping but refusing testing is fishy i guess he wants to drink cobra urine right before since it obv gives you extra strength/endurance.

drugs, roids, juices, HGH.. all I was trying to say is that hes had speed and power and endurance since he was 16 and nothing you take can give you the skills that hes learned.

The reason I like him is because he backs up his arrogance. Talks the talk and walks the walk. The way he dominated Shane was the icing on the cake..I'm hoping he gets to fight Manny, Berto, Margarito and Cotto so I can see more of the same

I don't understand how you can be a fan of pure boxing but not be a fan of Floyd???
It's his style. I mean, the man is massively fast, and he can, as others have said juke like nearly anything, and make that counter. I understand that, but it's not what I prefer.

I like it when someone can use multiple techniques, when someone is fluid enough to do more than just what works best. Right now we are seeing what I feel is going to be a polarizing point in boxing when it comes to fighting style. We are seeing how exceptional technique plus brilliant speed has made Floyd into text book counter punch boxer. He's better than at this than anyone else to date. But I don't like that...


I like manny. Who's super fast, and against a lot of odds has risen through the ranks. He could be just as good as floyd and fight with that defensive, counter style, but he doesn't. He's much more aggressive. He lets his opponents punch him around for the first 2-4 rounds. He lets them get tired, lets them think they got a chance. Then he starts working those ridiculous angles. I just prefer it.

And don't prefer Floyd. It's like a major fundamental difference in how they box, and what makes me raise a brow and take note.

In all sports there are those many who are great, but why do we all have different favorites? Because we are different people...
