[@modris2980]

@@thabokgwele5268 Because he would go for power punches and KO's. Riskier than playing safe and counting points and thinking how to gain them when most want to y'know - win the fight instead the game.

[@AceAndThings]

Floyd was 27-0 with 21 knockouts when he fought at 130 pounds and and defended his world title 8 times. Anyone who is confused that he would be referred to as power puncher should know that he had multiple hand injuries and then moved up 3 weight classes to get to 147 to chase a fight against Oscar De La Hoya, which turned out to be the ticket to his success. He usually fought at a weight disadvantage against fighters from this point on in his career and adopted a defensive style where he relied on single quick straight rights or left hooks and counter punches. He still had enough power to stun and hurt opponents, which is why fighters rarely rushed in wildly against him for extended periods of time. There's a reason why world champion boxers way behind on points look like they gave up in the last quarter of a fight and it wasn't because they have a loser's mentality - they have eaten sharp counters for all of their mistakes and didn't like how it felt.

he actually was back when he was in the lower weight classes

Ik this is kind of a duh moment but wow he was so much faster in his younger days

[@charliediaz6118]

Jerry Roth judging, Kenny Bayless reffing and Al Bernstein commenting. Legends all over the place in this pro debut.

[@Thomas-fk3cw]

Funny when Bayless said, "you want some more?" after the knockdown.

[@kay2136]

The announcer called it right, "I think this young man could be a superstar one day!" Absolutely right!

[@SMOOVKILL1]

50-0 why does everyone forget he has 26 knockouts as well??? Baffles me.

[@SMOOVKILL1]

@YoureMy Daddy so floyd mayweather himself told you he's paying people off. 👍🏾

[@millbillkillbill165]

@YoureMy Daddy guess he paid off, canelo, Mosley, cotto, de la Hoya, Pacquiao and Judah..... I wonder how much he paid for the de la Hoya fight because he was such a major underdog. And wasn't even making nothing near de la Hoya at the time..

[@millbillkillbill165]

@YoureMy Daddy pac must have cared. You forget he beat Keith Thurman?? And he still active in boxing if he didn't care he would have took that money and retired

[@2LegitTwoQuit]

From this day forward he never lost a boxing fight again. Some people say he cheated while others simply disliked him. Whether he cheated or not he is still 50-0-0 soon to be 51-0-0.

[@girindraarya5449]

I think logan record doesn’t count because it’s an exhibition with no judge, no official winner if it goes to the distance, only ko, so the record wont change, i think it’s for the better, winning against logan only add a stain in mayweather record
