Did Shane Mosley have a game plan???

To me Shane was looking for one big shot the whole fight he got it and didn't take advantage of it Next point people say Shane couldn't pull trigger no more Floyd being a great counter puncher Shane was scared to punch in the fear of being countered just like Jmm who just shut down also in fear that when I punch Mayweather will counter with an accurate punch Floyd counter punching skills makes fighters think to much instead of executing there own gameplans

That's what I thought initially, if he thought he was going to be successful in playing the boxer role on the outside then he definitely underestimated Floyd. I though the Mosley camp was going to stratagize by fighting in close quarters and not giving Floyd any range for one-two shots. The plan seemed the exact opposite. Floyd would have beat Shane on the inside Floyd's a mean, crafty inside fighter

I honestly thought he was gonna stay on the inside and try to push Mayweather around. At that point he could have made it a rough fight. But he just stood at a close distance the whole night. And even began backing up for portions of the fight. He didn't sell out to win this fight. I think he was afraid to get knocked out.

I think Mosley planned to mix up his attack with either boxing off the backfoot or putting the pressure on. Mosley waited far too long before he decided to put on pressure because by that point, Floyd was winning easily. Floyd accuracy made Mosley cautious to throw imo also. Yeah that's the thing Mayweather's counter punching abilities make you very cautious. But I think we all knew he would not beat Floyd in a thinking man's game. So I think at that point if your intent is to really win, then he should have went all out even at the risk of getting knocked out. I think he would have been better off really giving it his all instead of hesitating.

Seemed like he had a plan until he landed the 2 big hits in round 2. Then he threw it all out the window and didn't listen to his trainer, and started headhunting for the rest of the fight. Floyd's defense was too tight though, and he became trigger shy, just waiting for the absolute perfect shot.

then "box" at a distance but the old mosley came out and wanted to exchange....he didnt listen to richardson once at his corner, shameful display man shameful.

im pretty sure it was to land something big in the beggining, im bettin that was a key in the strategy...land somothing and try to get him outta their before he has a chance to adapt. the first rounds are where may is the most vulnarable. mosley landed but couldnt follow through and gassed out after his 2nd round flurry....age was to blame.
