You can see the trademark Mayweather fighting style- the philly shell, quick crisp punches, hand speed, shoulder rolls, 'rope the dope', etc in Floyd's fight plan. Looks like he had all the talent to be a superstar, but his personal problems got in the way of his career.

Damn good, competitive fight between 2 up and coming fighters (Ray was 13-0, Floyd 15-1)- kept going back and forth for the first 6-7 rounds or so and then Ray knocked him down a few times in the 7th or 8th, then it was basically target practice from there. The flurry that ended it in the 10th is a thing of beauty.

Sugar Ray more than likely could have taken Jr. in his prime.
