Damn you guys are pathetic. It's obvious that every fighter that hasn't gotten in the ring with Floyd beats him. How else would the haters make a living?

I'd give Mosley a chance at 135 but that's itComment

There is a reason Mosley turned down two fights with Floyd, you know. One at 135, one at 147.Comment

Why are we even talking 147 or 154? Neither fighter was prime at those weights.........Comment

I would bet everything I own on Shane.
Shane Mosley > "Chicken" FloydComment

I’ve watched every fight Floyd has fought since 1996. I’ve watched every fight Shane has fought since 1996. With that being said, the fight would have been it’s GREATEST at 135. Both fighters were young, in extraordinary shape, had cartoon like six packs and had the speed of shaolin ninjas.
I have to give Floyd the slight edge simply because he had more ring intelligence than Shane Mosley and was also adept at making changes and staying poised. Shane was a helluva athlete, but against a true boxing genius like Floyd, he would have been picked apart and beaten soundly.
Shane turned down two chances to fight Floyd. Once at 135 (HBO wanted to air this fight the week after De La Hoya-Trinidad), but Shane and his father chose to fight Wilfredo Rivera at 147. Shane would turn down the fight years later citing dental issues.
