My thoughts on this thread about the fight...
It's about time Floyd faced a legit threat at WW. Judah, Baldomir and older version of DLH and Hatton at 147 weren't real test. While it isn't so bad to face DLH and Hatton for the money, you still have to mix in tough/dangerous fights if you care about your legacy. If not and its about the money....cool. Just don't expect to be label among the greats when taking that road.
So yes, I'm glad he is facing Shane. Mosley has no legs, but still has hand speed and power. His knowledge, ring experience etc compensate for some of the physical abilities he lost (much like it did for Lennox Lewis) so if Floyd beats him....full credit to him (with no excuses, Shane is shot, shane is old type of ****).
