      Floyd Mayweather Jr should use his jab more like he did at the lower weightclasses, when he used it against Ricky Hatton it was a great jab and very effective.

      Plus Shane Mosley has always struggled against a fighter with a good jab, i also think Floyd Mayweather Jr is too good of an all round fighter. Where as Shane Mosley although a great fighter, can't adapt aswell as Floyd Mayweather Jr.

      Which is a big difference take the Jose Luis Castillo fights for example, in the first fight he was able to swap to a boxer/brawler effectively. He was also able to solve the puzzle in the rematch.

      Also the Jesus Chavez/Zab Judah fights are very good example's aswell, of how great Floyd Mayweather Jr is at adapting, where as Shane Mosley never solved the puzzle's against Winky Wright/Vernon Forrest.

      Against Winky Wright in both fights he got his head jabbed off, and was never able to adapt in either fight. And against Vernon Forrest even though he did better in the very sloppy rematch.

      Again the same problems that he had in there 1st meeting he had again in there 2nd meeting clinching/jab/right hands/height. And again he never solved the puzzle.

      Thats what seperates Floyd Mayweather Jr and Shane Mosley, and thats exactly why i think Floyd Mayweather Jr wins. I agree i would love to see it, its one of the best match ups to be made in boxing. But my money's on Floyd Mayweather Jr for sure.

        Mayweather does not unretire especially for a fight with Shane. To much speculation on Mayweather coming back but let me break it down to all of you hopefuls, MAYWEATHER IS NOT COMING BACK.

        So what does that leave, Shane vs. Pac. I can see Pac taking the offer if the numbers are in his favor, but I honestly dont see Pac calling out Shane. The only way Pac vs. Shane happens is if Pac calls for it. No way Arum puts pressure on Pac for taking that fight.

        Im hoping Shane ends up fighting Cotto. That fight was close enough for a rematch. I can see why Shane is about the MONEY fights especially with the Wifey taking a HUGE cut. DAMN DIVORCE SUCKS..

          Very dissapointing that he is yet another top Welterweight to duck Williams, as Shane has a reputation for not ducking anyone.

          He also didn't mention Clottey.

          A more accurate statement would have been "I would like to fight the fighters who will make me the most money."

          Understandable, I guess, but it's not what he said.
          Paul Williams IS NOT a top anything to the volume that Shane is looking for. Shane is looking for a megafight

              i think shane is better than gayducker, and if they fought now, floyd gayducker will get knocked out. the man floyd ducked and doesn't want to mention got knocked out by mosley. which tells you his big heart and courage, add that with fast hands and power, floyd will be ****ed up. ^_^

                  Mosley vs Mayweather is destiny......its no secret that Floyd wants Shane badly and NOW the feelin' is mutual.......I dont know if Cotto wants to dance with Shane again after seein' what he did to the Boogie Man Marg....Pac will fight him in a heart beat and probably lose his in the process......Hatton will get bombed on by Shane, thats not a fair fight .......I just hope he gets the BIG money fights he want because if ANYBODY deserves some cake its Shane

                    whoever wins between pac/hatton and shane/cotto should fight eachother. their only other options are jmm for pac/hatton and p. williams for shane/cotto unless pbf comes back. there's not the money in either of those fights so it'd make since for a big fight between whoever wins at jww and ww.

                      cotto/shane rematch, hatton/pac, and the winners fighting eachother would all be big ppv fights. i'm guessing that's the likely scenario that will play out.
