    If you want to say there's no such thing as a complete fighter, fine. I'm content with saying that Floyd is about as technically complete a fighter as there's ever been, up there with the likes of Duran, Leonard, Robinson, Hopkins (in his prime), etc.

    When REED Hears the Words "Complete Fighter", he Thinks of a Guy that Can Win in MULTIPLE Ways...Ray Leonard was a "Complete Fighter"...He Could Knock U Out EARLY or LATE...He Could Out BOX U for the Duration or Out BRAWL U...He Utilized EVERY Punch in the Book & was SOUND Defensively...

    Elite Level Athleticism, GREAT Chin, TOUGHNESS & the Competitive ARROGANCE to Repeatedly Test Himself Against the Best...

    Floyd Mayweather LACKS Fight Altering POWER...Though he's Never had to Prove it, REED Very Much DOUBTS that Floyd would Dig Deeeeeeeeeeep & Look to OutSLUG a MASSIVE Puncher like Tommy Hearns...

    This is supported by the two years dicking around with a Pacquaio fight. There's no way Floyd would believe a guy that tall can make 147 and have that much power.

    weaknesses:

    - throwing 5 punches per round and being content with only edging rounds
    - a normal chin

    these are good answers. size is often overlooked as a strength or a weakness, and in PBF's case, it's definitely a weakness when it comes to 147.

    Floyd got exposed by a shot Oscar. Even in winning, Floyd looked like crap regardless of weight or whatever else.
