    I always thougt that it was kinda bully-ish of Floyd to show up at the first press conference and to start disrespecting Oscar like that. It isn't Oscar's game, it was unexpected. That would be like Cedric the Entertainer making "yo mama" jokes to you. You know you're not winning that one.

    Floyd is a guy who cries after fights and gets emotional. Why come at him when he is most vulnerable? And two-on-one?

    It is not manly of Shane to need Bernard's hand up his back.
    Hahaha wtf, did you just ask why did Shane have to come at Floyd when Floyd was at his most emotionally vulnerable and criticize shane for it?

    These are adults. They can handle their own.

      Dawg. A healthy Forrest would beat Mayweather.

        That's your opinion. Fact is Forrest beat Mosley ass twice.

            too old? wrong style? toothache?

            There's a big point in Mayweather vs Mosley to happen, but wtf is great in this stage for Mayweather to beat him and get credit?

            *** him, leave Mosley in the dirt and let him fight Clottey...am tired of this ****.
            You don't get it. It's not about the fight, which is probably going to be a strategical borefest. It's about HAVING THE BALLS to take the fight. They are both 1-1 in terms of ducking each other. It's PBF's turn to say yes or no.

                Who gives a ****, bottom line is this, a Shane - Floyd matchup is not as interesting as y'all think. Shane today is no longer a combination puncher, he has become older/slower, meaning, Shane these days relies alot more on that one punch and going for the ko.

                I mean, Shane could not even look good against Mayorga, let me repeat that, Mayorga. He looked great against a statue(Margarita). Shane had difficulty with Cotto who had nowhere near the boxing ability of Floyd.

                Shane just like his boss(De La Joto) can no longer pull the trigger. Y'all know what happened the last time the other fighter could no longer pull the trigger, right?

                  I don't know if you would say that he "can't pull the trigger", but overall I think you are right. Mosley needs to be able to catch guys flush nowadays to be effective. In his prime, who knows, he may have been able to land well on Floyd. But now? I doubt it. Mayweather wins a fairly easy and relatively boring decision in this fight I think. As always, Mosley will get found out technically against an A class technical boxer.
