i'm going to need to see how shane deals with getting pot shotted...it can really frustrate you to get hit and swing back to hit nothing...he better stay tight in those combos...floyd will throw a counter and stop you dead in your tracks...look for floyd to have close to 60% accuracy in this fight...
Firstly thanks to the TS for that vid
you gotta remember to floyd fans that mosley is a different fighter with richardson,
his style was ok with jack mosley sr but now he has develped his weapons a lil better and harder
Now this is a post that caught my eye ...... I cannot say I agree with the premise, that Nazim {Who no doubt, is an outstanding trainer} had that much of an effect on Mosley's ring game. Mosley fought a slow with limited defense, mentally distracted fighter in Margarito. This reality takes nothing from the win, but we have to take into consideration all the events that took place that night.
And that Margarito that night {After the scandal discovery} ... Cotto would have torn to shreds.
So, that brings up the question: In what way has Nazim Richardson improved on the style that Mosley has??????
Because there was nothing I saw that night that was new {Coming from Mosley} It only looked impressive because of the OPPONENT & EVENTS that took place that night.

He still paws with the jab...Nothing changed about that...He still throws looping punches...The only thing changed was the opponent he was fighting...Margarito made him look good because he is stationary and don't have any defense..Mosley threw bombs all night...It's just that Margarito was not able to weather this storm because Mosley has punching power...There is nothing special about Shane now...He was no different then he was when he fought Ricardo Mayorga...It took him 12 rounds to get him out of there when Oscar and Tito took less then 9.
lol.....cotto>>>>shane...but , i agree shane is #1 ww right now.... props to floyd if he wins...
I respect Cottos heart but its difficult for me to put a guy whos been ktfo twice over someone whos yet to be ko'd in 40 years of his life.
Shane is the real terminator.

it will be Hatton vs Mayweather all over again but Mosley wont get Ko'd just he frustrated and keep his guard down..Kenny Bayliss better be the referee he is the best referee for all fights pity he didnt ref Mayweater vs hatton, it couldve been a different story. Joe cortez is bum when it comes to referees
man, its not hard to get in floyd's skin......even boxing hosts do that quite a lot...look how he reacted with ra the rugged man.....lol.....i wanna see this fight happen as much as everyone but i dont think this will be a very exciting fight tbh....i'll be watching it tho....:boxing:
Nah, thats different. Its different when its an actual opponent. No boxer in 40 fights has got under Floyd's skin in the pre fight. No one. Even just boxers period, who werent his opponents. They never rattle him. Floyd gets defensive on the other type shit anyways and doesnt always speak well but on normal boxing shit stuff with other fighters, he always has the upper hand by a mile. Alot of the opponents end up wanting to kill him while he's not thinking anything about him and he basically won the fight before it started. Shane though gets under him a little but I think Floyd can get under Shane also and worse with that roids stuff
This will be the biggest fight since tyson vs Holyfied. No way shane beats floyd. To much skill and smarts. Shane will get out boxed. If cotto can out box you then come on.
Getting under Floyd Skin means nothing before a fight, someone is always getting under his skin and he goes into defensive mode. Now getting under his skin in the ring is another story many have tried and his demeanor and the way he fights does not change.
Shane Mosley is underestimating Floyd Mayweather. That will be his down fall. He act like Floyd is scared of him but that is far from the truth. Floyd gets up for fights people think he can't win. Shane has always thought that because he has power and speed thats all he needs. You gotta be smart Shane. You get hit too much to beat a guy like floyd. It won't be speed,power or none of that. It will come down to who is the smartest. Shane fights with his face. Easy to hit. No way he beats Floyd.Thats why he didn't fight floyd in the late 90,s. Too much of a risk so he decided to move up stay undefeated and fight delahoya. If he thought he could beat Floyd he would have fought him back then.
Do any of you guys think Mosley will respect Mayweather in the fight, well he'll know how good his skills are but will Mosley just think he is better and can exploit Floyd
I dont want to hear any excuses about Shane being old. THAT BASTARD IS THE SCARIEST WELTERWEIGHT IVE EVER SEEN. Big, strong with reach and speed.
Paul WIlliams may be the tougher fight but Mosley is by far the most dangerous in the division.
shane: floyd got pushed in , he did'nt really wanna fight me....lol......be careful what you say shane, coz you might just give floyd a reason to pull out......:boxing:
Thats why I tell everyone that there will be some very bad blood in this fight. He's the only guy I know that can get under Floyd's skin and the only thing Ive ever seen get under Shane's skin is someone bringing up roids. Both guys will make eachother mad but I think Floyd has the upper hand because the roids thing makes Shane crazy. Both guys will want to kill eachother by fight night. This fight is going to get 2mil buys without a doubt because people will know how good Shane really is and they will see that there bad blood is genuine
