Selfless Mosley to give De La Hoya a hand

[!! Mr. Soprano]

Breaking News!

With Mosley as DLH's sparing partner, HBO has decided to make the De La Hoya / Mayweather 24/7 Training coverage a PPV event.

It's a smart move by DLH regardless of what you say, you gotta spar with the fastest guys you can find to even come close to Mayweathers speed, 9/10 you'll get in the ring and find out that they weren't even close. Mosley's fast but nowhere near as fast as PBF these days, but he's sparring with the best. At least I know DLH's gonna be ready & there wont be any excuses this time around, I honestly expect a great fight.

& as for Shane, he just wanted to knock Oscar around a few times.

great story, rocky III type this is great for boxing,
it's a great story overall in mayweather's camp family together once again

It's not desperation. This is the biggest fight of both of there lives, of course they are gonna do both do whatever it takes to prepare the best they can. You think that Floyd and his Dad re uniting was a coincidence. They would still be hatin on each other had Sr. been training Oscar. Floyd brought his dad in because he knows that he has been training Oscar for the last 6 yrs. If your want to say someone is desperate, it looks like Floyd all of a sudden bringing his dad back is a more of a desperate move. That **** wasn't acoincidence that all of a sudden they make up. ****in nuthugger.

Pwnt.
It's good to hear, I'm def gonna be tuning in on HBO in april after
sopranos an entourage ofcourse..what a great schedule.

talk about advantages and disadvantages, isn't floyd wearing gloves that oscar says he has to wear? isn't floyd moving up to 154 ponuds? doesn't floyd have to weigh in at 154 or somewhere around there to fight oscar? aren't they fighting in a smaller ring, and isn't oscar getting paid the larger amount? how fair is this? now, oscar thinks shane is the answer for floyd. no way in hell. while sparring with shane mosley is a good idea to get ready for floyd, shane's mimmicking or floyd's style has nothing to do with floyd's strategy or his mindset, and that's where it counts, floyd's smarts will win him the fight. ivan yada yada yada yada, can help oscar out with speed, but as great a boxer as he is, he is not a smarter fighter than floyd either, so good luck oscar, coz you aren't beating floyd mayweather, no chance in hell or heaven for that matter.

Most seem to be forgetting this. That Oscar set parameters in this fight to, somehow, favor or give the edge to Oscar. Floyd agreed to the stipulations just for opportunity to fight The Golden Boy, and even agreed to fight on May 5 for that matter.

Now, some may consider that move on the part of Floyd to not be too smart, but obviously, Floyd is confident of the outcome regardless.

i agree. floyd has never lacked confidence in the ring, even when he's been in trouble. floyd has all the confidence in the world in fighting oscar, as he should have. he's a birlliant fighter, and oscar is a boxing great himself, so he should have all the confidence in the world also, but he's not a smarter fighter than floyd is though imo, and that where it lies, and that's where it stays.
