    Tbf Marg was under a microscope due to cheating (rightfully so) and Mayorga was never some top guy. Reminds me somewhat of Maromero, lots of flash, not a lot of substance. Mosley was in the tail end of his career. I wouldn't say shop worn but he def was not close to prime. Styles make fights and both those guys were tailormade for Shane

      However it happened, Mosley was the lineal king of the welterweight division when Mayweather fought him. That's an undeniable fact of history.

        Yeah but see when you want full credit for beating a guy you get them in their prime so there are no excuses

          You mean like how you said Toney beat Holyfield in his prime even though he was 41 years old with 6 loss's and numerous wars?

            How I am saying Floyd gets little credit for beating shopworn Shane Mosely

              Define for me precisely when Mosley was in his prime, and also when Mayweather was in his prime.

                The same Mosley who beat Margarito, whom you criticized Floyd for not fighting?

                  Ok but you then also said Holyfield was in his prime when Toney fought him even though he was 41 years old with 6 loss's and numerous wars


                  So does Toney get little credit for cherrypicking and beating a shopworn Holyfield using the same logic?​

                    How does Tank even win two rounds? You’re not beating Floyd with a low punch output. And Davis is sure not gonna be able to counter Floyd. Davis is pretty much ****ed in this match up. Honestly, saying Floyd wins by UD is pretty generous.

                      May is known to give away the early 2 rds.
