Floyd had power early on before he messed his hands up. He beat a very tough, much bigger Corrales to a pulp.
OT: Anyone catch this trainwreck?

Just to be clear, Jake Paul isn't fighting Mayweather. It's his older brother Logan. He was just there to stir the pot and piggyback off the publicity.

The UFC is “the brand” for professional mma, therefor the fights we should see, we usually see. Unfortunately, so many champions and great boxers are split with different promotions and politics become too involved (bud Crawford is a great example of this).
We have great young entertaining fighters, Teo, Shakur, Tank, etc, but the Mayweather model has really hurt the sport. The other thing with MMA is that we frequently see great fights run back for a rematch while it is relevant. Boxing has the opportunity often to do this, but refuse to.
For we got WilderxFury 2 & GGGxCanelo 2 (boxing corruption at its finest here), but we miss out on things like TeoxLoma2 & PAC x Mayweather. All to the detriment of the fans & sport

No he is not.....unfortunately.
Boxing has more total fans in the US and worldwide than MMA. It is way more popular among minorities here in the US than MMA.

Jake Paul is the better fighter of the two brothers (not saying much). Logan was beaten already by another YouTuber....... It's about to get real for Mr. Paul. Jake has even said Logan's making a big mistake.

If the goal is to make money, I'm not sure how this is a mistake. Logan Paul is promised $1.5 million in fighting plus 10% in PPV revenue. So he'll probably earn in excess of $10M for a night's worth of getting his face punched in.
It's not like he has a real boxing career he has to protect.

Last i heard Pac was ready to sign on to fight Bud but bud didnt sign because of a huge money disparity between what he`d be paid and what Manny would get. Thats disappointing as he is my favorite fighter but he needs to realize Pac is the attraction and gets all the benefits in negotiations.

Think Pac is going to fight Mikey Garcia and Bud is looking at a move up to 154 lbs. He has one more fight on his Top Rank deal then hopefully links up with Al Haymon to make the fight with Spence. If we don’t get Spence - Crawford in their primes we riot

Bud should absolutely not be moving up at this point especially if his contract is about to be up with TR. Now that you mention the one more fight thing that really makes me wonder if hes betting he can get a bigger pay day for a Manny fight without TR.

Jermell Charlo and Brian Castano are fighting for the undisputed super welterweight championship in July. I would like to see Bud against the winner if Spence is off the table. Both of those guys are repped by PBC

He should be treating that Pac fight as a loss leader, and assume he'd make it up in the Spence fight. Even so, that would be his biggest payday of his career. No one cares about the disparity when you drop a legend and a name brand in 5. He's 33 and needs to get to work on putting a stamp on his legacy.

Well, that's four minutes of my life I'll never get back.
The first and last Paul brother video I'll ever watch.

If Charlo wins and Bud moved up and won that would be a pretty big notch on his belt. It could then set up a big fight at 154 with Spence.

If there weren't any covid restrictions he would have gotten over 100k. Once again, Canelo is the biggest star in combat sports bar none.
