Is it just me...

Or does anybody else see some kind of resemblance between Shane Mosley and Ray Robinson? Physique, style, short powerful punching ability, etc. Shane has always reminded me of Ray and watching Robinson vs Graziano I can't help but think he modeled his style after Ray and did a pretty good job.

Yeah I think most people can see it, but maybe not. A little while ago I noticed how much Mosley emulated Robinson in posture and movments. Through the back he has close to the same posture and looks tight. He may try to hard to look like Robinson in the ring but maybe its natural for him.

Totally what I see. Narrow, tight shoulders, etc...

This is hilarious. I'm watching the Oscar vs. Shane fight right now and I was coming on to make the same thread. He keeps his hands a little lower, but other than that, it's a dead ringer. Same powerful aggressive style, same lightning hand speed and same rock solid chin.

I always thought he was given the name Sugar because everyone thought he resembled Ray.

^what the hell?

anyways. Shane is a poor mans Robinson so to speak. And because Shane is one of the best fighters out there today, and pretty high up there, it speaks levels about Robinson. And it isnt a knock on mosely to call him a poormans Robinson. Maybe a middle class mans Robinson

The smiley at the end (although I didn't even realize we had a turban smiley) makes me think this is a joke. Your previous posting record makes me think that you're a joke. Which one is it? Because no way does Shane have a better resume than either Sugar Ray, but especially not Robinson.

Best thing to do is ignore trolls.
