Often, boxing announcers and analysts watching a championship fight would comment that the challenger has to take away the title in order to be crowned champion.
What they mean is that the challenger has to win convincingly to give him a nod if the fight goes the distance.
Does PBF have to win convincingly to take the WW title away from Mosley? If the fight is close, is PBF screwed?
I don't think he would have to win convincingly but if I were Floyd I'd sure as hell would do all that I can to not leave this match up to the judge's even if he doesn't knock out Mosley.
If the fight is close people will scream robbery, especially if Floyd gets the decision because he is quite hated on here.
Granted, in this forum. But what I meant was, during the fight. Do you think the judges will keep this in mind - that PBF as the challenger has to win convincingly since Shane is the titleholder?
