i mean wtf, he lands a couple good shots and its over with, he couldnt even breathe after the second round. I seen him after the first round and knew he wasnt gonna be able to go 12 rounds without holding. if he wouldnt have held so much mayweather would have knocked his ass out. all props to mayweather he would have won anyway probably by knockout even if shane would have fought because he wouldnt have been holding so much but that was a disgraceful performance by shane. When i pay $60.00 to see a fight I want to see a fight or at least someone trying to fight.
After re-watching a few rounds it does seem Floyd's offence forced Shane into retreat. He did seem to tire early, but much of it could have been the fact Floyd was out boxing, and out punching him and pushing him back.
Being dominated is draining.
LOL, Floyd isn't margarito now is he? Margarito has piss poor defense and stands right in front of shane, coming forward and couldn't block or dodge a right hand for the life of him. Horrible comparison.
Like I said before the fight, and so did many others, the Margarito fight is such an illusion because as we all should know by now, styles make fights.
Shane couldn't "let his hands go" after the 2nd round because Floyd was making him pay, over and over again. Check the compubox numbers - shane threw more punches than floyd, he just couldn't land for shit cuz floyd got his timing down. Floyd also would keep the perfect amount of distance between eachother...when you re-watch it, pay attention to floyds footwork, that was key.
When Floyd was hurt he should have gone for the kill. Like he did against Margrito. The comparison can be made (stretched) because Floyds legs were jelly and he was there to be hit.
But he did clinch and did well to survive.
There were many times when Shane waited too long to attack. Floyd was beating him to the punch.
I actually think Floyd offence was his best defence on saturday. Somthing i never thought id say. Still hate the cunt. But he is great.
maybe inactivity mixed with possible over-training could be the reason....now you throw that in a pot with his birth certificate....man, thats a recipe for disaster if you aske me.....but Floyd desreves credit for standing in there and dealing with what Shane had to offer in the 2nd round.....I didn't think his chin was so solid!! :boxing:
I think him being tired is being overstated. I've seen guys way more done where they can barely stand and are falling down all over the place. Shane is still a great athlete and looked fine out there. Yeah he was tired but his fatigue isn't what stopped him from throwing. It was the threat of being countered with something hard from Floyd.
Same thing with the Cotto fight. He just didn't throw down the stretch it wasn't because he was tired, it was because he didn't want to get countered.
The Truth. The past fights I have seen Mayweather in nobody wants to throw. Hatton, Cotto, Marquez, now Mosley. Once they started getting countered they tried throwing pop shots just like floyd only it doesn't work unless you are floyd. Neutralization at its best.
It looked more like mental fatigue than physical. Floyd's command of "timing and inches" was impeccable and had Shane second guessing himself every time he wanted to throw. Mayweather broke him down mentally and then physically.
Also Mosley has always been a bit of a gasser IMO.
you have to take into account that he hadnt fought any1 as good as mayweather before, he probably used up alot of nervous energy, and possibly tried to hard to finish it in the 2nd.
People are saying shane ran out of gas after the second round, I disagree with that. Floyd made some adjustments and once he got shane's speed & timing down, it was all over for shane. Also, floyd was making shane pay every time he missed so shane became very hesitant to throw punches or combo's and you could tell he was second guessing himself the rest of the fight. He got beat mentally.
It seemed Shane stopped throwing as soon as he hurt Floyd in the 2nd.
Floyd was clearly hurt but Shane didnt let go of his punches the way he did against Margrito. I thought Floyd was as close to a sitting duck we have ever seen him. I dont understand why Shane didnt go for the KO.
Il have to re-watch it, but i remember being confused why Shane wasnt throwing when he had him hurt.
he really showed his age in there,never seen mosley look so bad
He looked horrible against Mayorga, there was no doubt in my mind Money would school and tax that ass, Mosley fooled everyone when he fought Margarito where he made sure to take his PED's and blow the horn about Tony's supposedly "plastered" wraps to get people's attention off of his newfound "natural strength"...
I agree with you both. Mosley was more hesistant/nervous than tired.
Dude that's BS, he looked gassed as **** after the second round, he never got that second wind he would of gotten otherwise if he had been on his drugs like he did against Margarito where he was a rock solid power punching machine for 9 rounds, there is no excuse about him getting tired after two rounds of mediocre work.

I agree with you 100 bro.

lol poor Mosley, after got beaten, now he the reason he gassed out to early because he was not able to used PEDs???
before anything maybe age was a factor???
Imagine the aniliation (typo) when your GOd pacman takes the test and isnt on his peds?
WOW
I cant wait for Mayweather to Knock him the fuk out
Man you are a dumb ass
Thats why Mayweather almost got knocked the fuk out in the second right?
Props to May for enduring the strorm and moving on to dominate.
Shane landed two solid un-roided over hand rights, my boy May felt them but he shook off the cobwebs quick and went back to put in work like he always does. Shane was gassed right after summoning the power he no longer posseses without the aids of his PED's, shane is a shot old man without his drugs, he fooled everyone by cheating a weight drained, mentally broken Margarito, so I'm glad my boy Money put a good spanking on that ass.
I've already started the research my man, it was clear as daylight May's olympic style testing prevented the Sugar man to use his PED's for the fight unlike against a mentally destroyed and weight drained Margarito where he used all of his PED power punch arsenal to dent his chin and get the KAYO. What you saw against May was the old ass Mosley without his PED's.
Man you are a dumb ass

I would think working out, training' sparring and missing punches during the figjt would be more draining than a urine & blood test, but whatever u say TS.
