Floyd has always had trouble with jabs. Mosley doesn't have one.
Yeah Mosley is Floyd's weight, but styles make fights. I think a better fight would be Cotto Mayweather because at least Cotto has a good jab.
Shane has an ok jab for setting you up, but it isn't a jab that you can use to impose your will. It's a flinging jab not a straight jab like Oscars or Cottos.
I know Shane has a great left hook, but can he land it without setting it up with a good jab? I don't think he can often enough to win the fight.
Shane has speed, Mayweather is faster
Shane has better power than Mayweather. IDK if power is enough to get past Mayweather's defense.
Shane has a fast jab, but it's not an imposing jab that forces Floyd back so you can set things up.
The best we can hope for is that Shane tries to become a pressure fighter in training camp. Then Shane's power might break Floyd down.
Mr boat buyer UD's SSM. He KO's Cotto and Pac. Based on that alone I'd call SSM his toughest test. He lacks the legs to win imo. But he brings a chin, 12 rd stamina, good handspeed, and punchin power. I can see him takin 4 or 5 rds and makin Mr boat buyer work.
He aint KOing Cotto. He could KO Pacquaio but he wouldn't risk going for it. Mosley would definatley test him.
I don't buy him walkin those guys down and stoppin em at all. But Cotto ain't fast enuf, and Mr boat buyer would accumulate damage on him. I could see him gettin taken out late. In Pac's case, everything he gets hit wit will hit him as he's comin forward. JMM lasted 12 cuz Mr boat buyer allowed him to. If he felt like it, he coulda iced him. Pac and Cotto stay fightin when hurt, and once they got stung seriously, which I think they eventually would, I could see Mr boat buyer takin out both. Cotto got a better chance goin 12 than Pac, but I think both get KO'd. No way SSM goes anywhere tho. I'd be surprised but not shocked if he beat Mr boat buyer.
I think Shane will retire without being Knocked out, same with Hopkins
I can't see anybody who could stop those guys
Floyd won't KO Cotto
Cotto is a tougher fighter than people give him credit for
Mangler, Floyd would not KO Cotto or Pac. Those guys went many many rounds with ultra aggressive hard hitters such as Morales and Mosely. Floyd coudn't even KO JMM who was there to be KOed.
Also, Mosely is a power punching fiend who would give anyone problems. Saying fighting Mosely is a joke - the guy's resume speaks for itself about how easy it is to fight him.

Mosley would probably pose the biggest challenge in the ring against PBF because he has a long lengthy experience, But he would still lose by UD. Manny because of his stance,High energy and speed would defintely unsettle PBF and Cotto would probably be the easiest fight out there for Mayweather.
The funny thing is even though Cotto would probably be the easiest fight for Mayweather he would get way more credit if he fights and beats Cotto than he would get for beating Mosley or Pacman.

Valid points but Mosley isn't the easiest fight. I think Mosley can pressure and land. Mayweather doesn't have enough power or throw enough combinations to hurt Mosley. But in the end PBF wins by SD.
TS is dreaming. Why in hell does Mosley become the easiest fight for Mayweather??? Mayweather is going to get exposed big time if he is dumb enough to take on the much better fighter in Mosley.
the winner of the Cotto-Pac fight is the EASIEST fight for Floyd!!!.....but Floyd follows the money so its Pac, Mosley, and then Cotto for Floyd!!.....if Cotto beats Pac......we'll see how EASY Mosley will be then!!
Floyd was offered JMM or Mosley as his comeback fight......no need to tell you who he chose!!!.....I guess Shane isnt THAT easy in Floyd's eyes!!
Exactly right. All the things the haters are saying now about Mosley, Cotto, and Pacquiao are EXACTLY the same things they said about De La Hoya, Marquez, and Hatton before their fights with Floyd. It wasn't until after Floyd dominated them that all of a sudden they changed their tune and started downgrading those fights.
It's already clear that there's nothing Floyd can do to please the haters. He's already proven everything he can possibly prove. The haters will just make s**t up to attack him no matter how much he proves.
Ok I dont think anyone ever said Mayweather had to beat light weight Marquez. Floyd brings some of the hate on himself. Although I do agree that haters will hate.
After Floyd beats Mosley haters will claim he was old & that Floyd has never fought anyone.

Im not a big Mayweather fan, im a fan of Mayweathers skills, but honestly I just dont like him. What you say is true, but it is also true for every fighter. A fighters haters will down play what he did while his fans will over hype what he did. If Floyd beats P.Will some will say Paul was an overrated hype job, Pac is to small, Cotto is done after the Marg fight, Mosley is too old, Berto is unproven, Clottey can not win big fights, etc.
I don't see Shane beating Floyd...
Only guys who've come close to beating Floyd put on pressure and/or outworked him...
I can't recall Shane fighting any predominantly defensive fighters that are elite...
Shane's opponents in recent years all stood directly in front of him...he's gonna have to find Floyd...everyone gets there dick hard cuz of Shane's handspeed and crowd pleasing style...
Mayorga's awkward and he made Shane look confused and frustrated at times...and the fight was close before the KO
I have a feeling if it happens it will be competitive but down the stretch Floyd's style will frustrate Mosley...
I'd like to see what Shane will do when Floyd is potshotting the shit outta him...he's gonna look old quick if he chases Floyd round after round...
floyd countered jmm's jab yesterday easy
guess u didn't watch the margo fight
cotto is too slow, his defense sucks and he gases. mosley is the better fight.
like I said, watch the margo fight
shane doesn't need the jab to land the left hook.
that remains to be seen
doesn't matter, he just needs to keep banging at floyd...
again see the margo fight.
shane will be the aggressor... I suspect that mosley will lean on floyd and hit him.
Several times, you said watch the Margarito fight? For what? None of what Shane did is going to be relevant against Mayweather. Every fighter who comes out and try to bully Mayweather looks like a fool. He eithers, pot shots them, moving around the ring all night, or KOs them.
Floyd has always had trouble with jabs.
