No hating or hugging, just picks. Floyd/Shane

I truly believe Mosley is gonna win also!!I believe Shane is hungrier than floyd is!!I also think that Mosley will apply more pressure than floyd has ever seen!!Mosley is bigger,stronger & fleet on his feet!!Mosley fought Margarito the way he did because that was the gameplan!!Mosley knows floyd is a counter puncher who fights backing up!!His counters aren't gonna bother Mosley,floyd doesn't posses a strong jab!!Mosley is gonna shorten up his shots,apply pressure,beat on floyd's lead shoulder until it's sore,all the while attacking the body & ruffing him up!!Every fighter gets hit,in this case Mosley has the tools to hit floyd,he's gonna hit him hard,all night,Shane doesn't tire,floyd will fold under the Mosley assault!! I think that Mosley being hungrier is a good point, one that many people are not commenting on. Floyd is in it for the money and Mosley is in it for the pride and reputation. I think under given circumstances and on paper, Floyd wins a rather close decision. However, I would like Mosley to win it to kill the Mayweather aura once and for all. I think this fight is closer than what most people are thinking, I'd say more like a 60-40 in favor of Mayweather not 90-10. As much as the weaker JMM was able to hit Mayweather, I give Mosley a good shot, with his power one shot is all it will take to drop or stun Floyd enough to beat him.

Mayweather UD, 8-4.

Floyd by decision, I think he outboxes Shane... he will move around the ring all night and make angels for Mosley, Mosley will find him very hard to hit and hard to keep up with. It will be closer than some will make out, but I think Floyd still gets a UD.

Im gonna pick Shane. I think he want to prove something. WAR MOSLEY!

i think shane catches him a few times (if its a straight right i think he can KO floyd) but my pick will be floyd in a MD.

Floyd -- UD 9-3 I'm not yet convinced of Shane's resurgence. Base on the Marg fight, he could get off much quicker because the handspeed difference is big. The clinching was a perfect gameplan made by Naz. We did know ssm looked ordinary in the Mayorga fight. If he had fought Berto, it would have been a better guage for this fight. And i really don't know much about Naz at this point, did he in the past able to create a good gameplan for a boxer? The other fight I saw him do good was in a bhop-pav fight and pav is not a boxer. Floyd will potshot his way to a victory in this one. He would not exchange with Ssm. Shane has always problem with lateral movement, I think this would be exploited by floyd to the max. I can also see Shane winning. But it is entirely base on Naz, if he can get Shane off to a good gameplan and make sure he understand that he cannot rely on shear athleticism. The right hand would be a key. Again as with Marg-Smm, I did not see Pbf-Jmm as basis that the Pbf of old is back. Jmm caught him with a right, Pbf smiled, but I think it bothered him mentally because that was a very clean punch. Insert that with a Mosley right and Shane could very well get him out of there. Pressure with timing is the key. I hope Shane could pull it off. I'm rooting for him but my head is still with Floyd to win this.

I'm picking Mosley to win., unless Mayweather has a chin like Cotto or Pac.

Mosley - hard right hand & left hand - he is hungry he'll be all over Mayweather; don't think Mayweather will be able to run all night like in his other fights.

Floyd by UD If Shane starts out brawling he will get picked apart. But if he box he has a better chance but I still think he will get out-boxed by the better boxer. Paradoxically, that seems his only option to win the fight with a guy like Floyd. Strong offense is the best defense as they always say and in this case. Beat PB in his own game, go along with his music until he's pressured to change it. If he can do that, it's even possible he could KO Floyd. Otherwise, I really don't see Mosley winning in a defensive stance. There's no way he could win by UD, anyway. Go for it like it's his last fight.

Mayweather by UD. Shane will be tough but he will still get out boxed. It's true that Shane does have a big right hand, But so does Floyd. The jab will be the key for Floyd. That and alot of movement. Different angles will confuse Shane. WAtch the second Mosley/delahoya fight. Oscar gave Shane trouble with movement and a good jab. What oscar didn't have was a right hand which shane is a sucker for. Shane loves to come foward and throw hard lead rights and that loopng left hook. Floyd will be on his game that night. His defence will be on point.Guys like Cotto,margarito,vargas, m ayorga were all easy to hit. Mayweather is not. I could see Shane getting tired from chasing Floyd and missing punches all night. After 6 rounds he will burn out. Now that is real talk. That is why I think Naz will have Shane in sort of a boxer puncher role for the first have of the fight. Naz will keep his eyes wide open for slight adjustments that Floyd makes. I think folks take for granted what an impact it can make to have a guy like Naz in your corner. He is one of the main reasons I'm picking Shane. Hell wit it!!! I'm picking Shane cause of his trainer. There, I said it!:boxing:

Bolded................ Respect. On A Side Note: The reason I have not brought up Rodger in all of this, cause Rodger is more of a hype man come fight night. Now I'm not say Rodger is not a good trainer, but he doesn't game plan for fighters...That is Floyd job in the ring. That is why Floyd is one of the greats.

Floyd by UD If Shane starts out brawling he will get picked apart. But if he box he has a better chance but I still think he will get out-boxed by the better boxer. I agree with you 100%. If Mosley comes in like his old self, it will be no match. If he comes in using angles, and timing, pretty much boxing, he will have a better chance. Now if later in the fight he starts to mix it up a bit (boxing and brawling, and I think that is going to be part of the plan), I think that will work out great for Shane.

LMAO!!! I see it is the same post. Did you think I was ducking you (lol)??? Oh naw. The thead was moving fast. It was for everybody to see really. Lol. Now i see that you have based alot of your post on the Mosley of old. I really don't think Naz will let Shane make alot of those same old mistakes that you see him making. In all of my visions of this fight, not one has Mosleu looking for one shot at a time. Now if he does do that, not only will he lose bad, but i will question Naz aswell. I base that upon Shane looking up and realizing hes down on the cards. I think he will beleieve in his power a little too much. He just knocked out a Iron chnin fighter so I know Shane thinks he can stop Floyd. The main thing that I disagree with you on though, is I think that is the number one thing Naz will work with Shane on. His timing, and then his angles. He will try to come up with a gameplan the will keep Floyd off balance, and not able to just do what he wants. What Naz comes up with will be interesting to watch. But what Roger and Floyd come up with will ALSO be amazing to see. Floyd wanted Shane for a while now. Like I said, as we speak, Naz may infact have Shane watching film right now. Naz will have Shane ready for this fight. I just hope Shane can execute. I cant for May 1st my friend. Bolded................

It wasn't a clear win for Cotto, I was trying to say towards the END of the fight Cotto was able to out box Shane. The beginning of the fight will not be a war like the Cotto fight, but Shane pressureing Floyd and landing and Floyd potshotting and being defensive. I got what you meant. I just had to take a Cotto :grouphug:

Mayweather EASY win. I see Floyd starting off with a jab to the body an head over and over because Shanes weakness is a goodjab and hes not skilled enouh to time them. Dont believe me watch the Cotto fight. Cottos jab owned Mosley and kept him at bay and uncomfortable. Floyd does not lead with his jab alot but against Shane as WE ALL KNOW Shane struggles with jabs and Mayweather has a good one. I see Shane getting hit with that jab to the stomach and getting circled Constantly by Floyd who will not stop moving in this fight. Floyd has the footspeed to dart in and out on Shane and get off punches. I see shane having to sell out to get again and thats when I see him him tryng to bull rush Floyd on the insde during the clinches alot. Mayweather Like I said will make himself a damn near immpossible target to hit by his constant circling and movement. After a few arounds Floyds lead right will start to connect and along with a jab that is the punch that Shane has no defense for. I think the handspeed edge goes to Mayweather IMO. Shane is fast but I believe in the Cotto fight...Cotto was as fast or faster. Mayweather will be circling, pot shotting darting in and out and using the shoulder roll which basically gives righties a slim chance to land anything big. Mosley does not have the legs to chase Floyd and Floyd will make him look OLD. Shane will have his moments but they will be few and far between I see him throwing and the crowd cheering but they wont be landing effectively. Shane is a very wide puncher when he wants to be and after he realizes hes down on the cards hell look for ONE shot and then my friends thats where this fight wil get UGLY for Shane, because Floyd will tag his ass non stop and might even drop Shane a few times. No not because of power but because Floyds accuracy, speed, shanes aggresiveness, his wild swinging and the fact that he punches with his eye close. The punches that hurt are the ones you dont see and they can pout you on your ass. Shane has a real dislike for Floyd but he respects him. In the ring I think Shane will be looking for that ONE punch that never happens as Floyd turns his face to a pinata. Mayweather UD or late corner or ref stoppage. (Too many punches wil land Flush on Shane) LMAO!!! I see it is the same post. Did you think I was ducking you (lol)??? Now i see that you have based alot of your post on the Mosley of old. I really don't think Naz will let Shane make alot of those same old mistakes that you see him making. In all of my visions of this fight, not one has Mosleu looking for one shot at a time.

you think if the improved mosley from mosley/margarito shows up and not the mosley from cotto/mosley, that mosley is going to bitch slap floyd all over the place and have him runnin! :fingersx: . . scratch and sniff . .http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/gg103/2steelhead/m_b29cf9c75cc8b4f27a9656eb3504a072.jpg Not exactly its just my opinion

Just to be fair, I have not seen the Cotto fight in some time (I have seen it three times though), but I remember it being sort of a war early, and then Cotto got on his bike (like he does when he can't KO somebody, sorry Cotto fans). I don't remeber Cotto clearly winning that fight. So if you say it will be a controversial decision, you may be right. Floyds style will allow Shane to look good, so you might be on point with that pick and insight. It wasn't a clear win for Cotto, I was trying to say towards the END of the fight Cotto was able to out box Shane. The beginning of the fight will not be a war like the Cotto fight, but Shane pressureing Floyd and landing and Floyd potshotting and being defensive.

Honestly my friend its just my opinion. The reason I put this its because every time you post your pick on a fight everyone say im a fan os his but im not like this. I love boxing and I enjoy every fight that takes place no matter who is fighting. Although I agree with you on many points like I said its just my opinion.
