I saw the replay after work last night(again), & I couldn't help but notice how much shit Steward was talking about Shane, all of which in my eyes was unjustified. Yes, Mosley was the more tentative fighter, but that because he's the smaller fighter & he was fighting the smaller mans fight(if he moves down to WW then his style would change). At first I agreed that Mosley's punches looked "pitter patter", but when i saw the fight he was landing hard shot, not as hard as Vargas but still effective. The punches Mosley was throwing remind me of something i read in one of Bruce Lee's books, the most effective way to throw a punch is to aim it about 2 or 3 inches behind you target, & keep you hand relaxed until right before the moment of inpact. I don't think Steward is that bad, Vargas was executing his game plan perfectly,but so was Mosley, apperently all Steward was looking at was Vargas.
I didn't want to kill him or ass rape him like the rest of you guys, but that was pretty annoying. He didn't want to give Shane Mosley credit for anything. In my opinion, it was waaaaaaay worse than Foreman in the Hopkins/Tito fight. Foreman was just nuthugging Tito in that fight, he wasn't really bashing Hopkins. Steward was downplaying Shane's abilities and he didn't even give Shane credit for the swelling his punches did on Vargas' face.
Could care less what Steward ever says. As far as this fight Shane should do a Repeat in a little Faster Fashion this time? Really do not see much difference from FEB? Look for a 6-10 round K.O!
I feel you. I was thinking the same thing. I wanted to kill him. That was the worse shit I heard since Foreman was trying to play Hopkins in the Tito fight.
He better not do that shit tonight
