    Well, it depends on what one finds "impressive". I think Floyd is impressive every single time he fights. One person's view is not always anothers.. some people think UFC is impressive, I think it's ****-******, so what does it say. If you're a critic of Floyd, nothing he does is going to change anyone's mind, and if you're a supporter of Floyd, everything is validated each time you see his fights.

    I'm a fan of Mayweather and Mosley, so I'd be happy just to see that match-up. I don't know what this sense of entitlement is amongst boxing fans, that a fighter has to do this or that; if you dislike Floyd, don't watch his fights. Simple as that.

      Shane's durability won't factor in. Floyd will use far superior technique. While Shane is doing that circling thing that he does with his hands, FM pumps the jab, moves ties up, hits with right.

      ..and Floyd is a far superior inside fighter.

        I know but what would most fans think of Mayweather's performance?

          No one said it was the final answer, but it would prove that Floyd Mayweather Jr isn't willing to fight anyone who he feels could threaten his precious undefeated record.

          If he doesn't take the fight, then it's obvious that he's simply looking for low risk-high reward fights.

          Besides, calling Floyd out after his win was probably the only way that he could ever lure Floyd into a fight.
          The argument is, I don't think Floyd has exactly denied in the past that he was fighting for money and so forth- which undoubtedly upset some boxing purists- as he put it; "I don't fight for bragging rights"- whether you agree with that or not, it's his perogative. The argument would be, it's likely he *would* beat them, so why should he fight them now? I think, and I can't speak for Mayweather, and I'm not saying I agree or condone this, but I believe in the past, he felt so unappreciated, he figured people didn't "deserve" to see his best stuff, for whatever reasons. Now- I think thats different, I think Floyd has matured, as evidenced by his "I can get better" comment, which was rudely cut off by Mosley and Kellerman- but in the past, yeah, I think he was about more not going to great troubles more than any risk. There wasn't a risk any of those guys could WIN against Floyd, but they COULD make him work harder. Make sense?

            Hey, Jude...Sorry, couldn't resist.

            But you are absolutely right.

                  Your sig is one of the sweetest pull-counters i've seen. Jeez.

                  Fans would boo. As Shane follows Floyd and lands 8-10 ineffective punches per round.

                      Thanks to Antonio Marrrrrgarito 100%. 3 Months before that fight GBP couldn't give tickets away for free for Shane's fight with Mayorga. Mayorga being a fighter with a name who, El Feroz, Oscar and Tito all sold out against.

                      Shane is a disgraceful cheat he don't deserve a fight with Floyd more than Manny or Cotto.
