Do Not Try to Outbox Mayweather, Ever

I noted in a previous article that what we can learn from past fights of Floyd Mayweather’s is what not to do. We learned from Oscar De La Hoya that an opponent must not smother his offense and must jab the whole night. We learned from Miguel Cotto that Mayweather can make adjustments and punch around a tight defense. We learned from Jose Luis Castillo that working the body early is pertinent.
What did we learn from Saul Alvarez?
One must never try to outbox Mayweather in the center of the ring. But, if you had ever watched his past fights, you would have already known that.
