Thats bs,Floyd called out Shane even before Shane moved to 147,and Shane priced himself out.Floyd also called him out after the first and second Oscar fight,and after shane beat Vargas and Floyd turned him down.
You mean Mosley? If not that doesn't make any sense. Wasn't that the tooth ache thing?
there is nothing shane mosley did at 135, that even resembles floyd, period. floyd takes this one. shane mosley may have had power and speed, but he was never a finesse fighter like floyd, or fought smarter than floyd did at any weight class. shane was never on floyd's level. i mean, when will the hate stop for floyd people? when? look at their styles, floyd was a better mover, this is obvious. floyd has better defense overall, this is well known. floyd threw the sharper, more accurate punches, this is obvious. shane could look really stiff in his fights, and throw sloppy punches, shane damn sure didn't counter better than floyd did. floyd also fought off of the ropes better, and controlled the ring better, no matter where he was in it. shane has never looked at fluent as floyd did. this fight goes to floyd at any weight. shane imo wasn't sharper tha zab judah was as far as punching with speed, i'd say zab was better with his handspeed than shane was. floyd beats shane, prime or not. floyd was just too crafty for shane.

I kinda agree with this, except for the part where Floyd beats Shane.
Lightweight Shane can do everything that Mayweather can except with power? Mayweather at 135 had far superior defense, counterpunching, and ring smarts. Shane Mosley was a brawler with great power and speed, but Mayweather could neutralize that with his skills and win a decision. And let's not forget, Mayweather was not exactly feather-fisted at the lower weights.
No, i saw mosley fight at 135, comparing their resumes, mayweathers is far better, the defensive lapses that mosley suffers from now, he still had at 135, as good as he was, mayweather had what it took to offset his strengths, mayweather was just as fast and just as powerful at 135 (or at least close to it), Mosley wasnt invincible at that weight.
