Shane Mosley vs Floyd Mayweather at 147

I have always thought, and still firmly believe, that Mosley is the only one capable of beating Mayweather.

Shane can't beat mayweather. In his prime yes but now no. mayweather UD

why are we talking about this fight because it will never happen??? i bet margarito will fight mosley or cotto winner before mayweather. You say some of the dumbest shit sometimes. Floyd offered shane the fight after Shane fought Vargas for the second time. You are just all on Margarito nut like whiter on rice.:wank:

No reason that any good fighter would want a payday against a fighter with fans! That's why they are lining up to fight shitty Margarito, who only has fans that are broke as fuck. Shut Up Bitch :fuckyou:

i think mosley will beat cotto. he's fast and has some power. he may need to go all out to defeat cotto. i think he would also beat floyld. i mean he does have better than average at everything, which means he's damn good overall.

Mosley would lose right now if he fought PBF. I feel if the fight had taken place years ago Mosley stood a better chance of winning but I still would pick PBF. Mosley gets to sloppy in the ring sometimes and doing that against PBF is a big NO NO becaue PBF has the speed and skills to make him pay for being sloppy. PBF to me is smarter and a better technically sound fighter than Mosley and since they are so close is physical abilities I think those things would give PBF the edge. But with both in they're prime and all that said I would not have been suprised if Mosley won. I just don't think he would have though.

I am shocked at how wide of a margin this is for Floyd... I guess it is like Marquez-Vazquez, a really close fight that most people think will swing one way.

I didn't know that was your phrase, lol. I think Mosley can possibly win a UD/SD over Floyd right now, but I wouldn't be shocked if Floyd won either. I think a prime Mosley would beat Floyd at 135,140 and 147 IMO. Lol, my user title says "skill and will".That is your opinion and I can fully understand and respect it. I think it's a pickem prime vs prime though. It will definitely be an exciting fight though, I all that speed and all that skill will bring out the best in both fighters.

Floyd via UD.

Did you just use a post with my patented phrase "skill and will" in it Wlad? You seriously think a 36 year old Mosley will beat Mayweather. Him beating Floyd in his prime is debatable and him winning now is slim to none. However Shane is disciplined and stays in shape year round. He may be able to stay sharp enough to make the fight more than competitive. Floyd is just to accurate and to smart in that ring. I would give him the UD in the fight.

Here is a boxer who OWNED a prime Delahoya TWICE. Floyd couldnt even own an old DLH. Prime Mosley KO8 Floyd. :hitit:no, he didn't own oscar twice, get it right. he defeated oscar in two good fights. floyd defeated oscar who put up a decent fight but missed many punches. seeing how shane fought oscar when oscar was still an active fighter and floyd defeated oscar in which should have been a unanimous decison and nearly a knockout your point proves nothing. shane fighting oscar and floyd fighting oscar has nothing to do with them fighting each other. floyd moved up in weight and shane was bigger than oscar. it's about shane and floyd's styles and mayweather's style is too elusive all around for shane to damage, but shane's style isn't too much of anything for floyd not to damage, trust me.

Shane is used to being the speedy guy, he's used to having that speed advantage and when placed against someone who can match his speed (De La Hoya) he just went loco mode and started wailing off punches.. that being said I think that Floyd will use his speed and movement to land rapid fast, hard punches that will steal the rounds for the long run, Shane will go punch for punch with him when he can but Shane likes to throw flurries and bang away a lot, to do that he would have to be in front of you or near enough so that he himself can be countered, I think Floyd has enough skill to avoid Shane's major shots, land his and get out in the knick of time.. Floyd by UD on this one because if Vernon Forrest couldn't stop Shane then Mayweather definitely wont BUT he can out box him and maybe catch a flash knock down or two.. Shane can do the same but it's the techniques, Mayweather premeditates EVERY punches, notice closely how he uses his elbow to create punching space, he did it against Gatti and Chavez, so even when he throws his combos he's not wailing off at you but Shane just explodes when he's caught in an exchange, he goes a little blind then snaps into once out of the exchange, on the outside or making his way in Shane takes his time but once engaged in a exchange he goes off, I think Floyd can exploit that and get the better of it by simply countering and keeping it moving.. Floyd UD. 100shane also closes his eyes a lot when he throws combos in exchanges which will prove costly if h efights floyd who's eyes are his foundation. he has more skill than shane but throws better punches that don't look sloppy which shane has done so many times. floyd would beat mosley if they fought because he is a smarter fighter than shane. shane has all the physical attributes like his speed and good power but he does get hit a lot and his movment is suspect. shane should have fought floyd at 135 or 140. it would have been a better fight a few years ago which floyd would have still won but not as easy. mayweather would prove he is too smart for shane if they fought

I think that the best thing for the sport and for us the fans is that the winners of those two bouts fight each other... yea I would hope so...

in his prime beat floyd by sd?? interesting prediction.. tell ya right now if floyd actually tries to fight mosley sometime in near future, im not being biased.. I honestly just see Mosley being too strong for floyd, along with his speed, he is just too much. prime mosley??? lord it wouldnt be pretty.

I still believe Mosley's speed gives Mayweather problems if he gets off first. I used to think it was a win for Mosley, but I give Floyd more respect than that now. Floyd would win a UD, 8-4.

mosley wins

How do you feel about his steroids use? It got him by Collazo in a UD last fight. Yes, the same much disparaged Collazo that fought Hatton. Maybe Collazo is pretty good after all. What do you think about that, dios?

Who ever picked Mosley by Ko is just a floyd hater. plain and simple. I dont even think mosley has scored a knockout at welterweight and yall expect him to knock out the pound for pound king? yeah ok. the only people to beat mosley were to out box him and that is floyds best ability. his boxing skill. i think it will be a great fight and shane would try to apply some pressure and show his hand speed but i see floyd taking a majority decision. I just see shane being hit with those lead rights all night. he would have trouble with the movement and hand speed of floyd as well.

i think il wait to see the outcome of the two up and coming fights first, then make a prediction
