    Yeah thats what I think about 16-165 for both.....

    I mean to beat Paul you need angles...agility...and you need to be hard to hit.

    Mosley doesn't punch at angles..........He has no legs and is straight forward brawler.........Mosley is also very easy to hit.

      We'll see if the fight gets made at some point. Shane has to get passed Berto, and who knows if Shane will get old overnight. I am 50/50 on it.

His biggest Flaw is that he doesn't use his Jab enough. With a Jab like that, he should be destroying guys with ease. But he does not. He chooses to Brawl and if he Brawls with Shane i believe Shane will KHTFO
        To tell you the truth this is a very difficult fight for Shane... I give brother Naazim a lot of credit for the victory against Margarito... he really trained him right and set up a plan where Mosley knew exactly where to be and what to use... I never seen that from Shane before... Shane was always a guy who went one way and if it didn't work he was lost...

        With Naazim I give him a shot BUT still favor Williams though... because he has reach and height advantages... he punches a lot (Margarito only punches if up close) Williams throws all from angles...

        Chin for Williams isn't so questinable for me... he got hurt but he survived it...

        I have to go with Williams by decision but with Brother Naazim I wouldn't count it out even though it would be very hard I believe to keep up with Williams at his age... Martinez is well conditioned and you saw that he had his problems too...

        Williams is all wrong for Mosley IMO

          Good post...I agree....

          Mosley had this to say on Williams.....

          "Our styles don't match up well"

          I mean can't argue with what the man said out his own mouth.

            I don't think P Will used his jab effectively enough against Martinez and if he does that little flick out jab he does he won't really trouble Mosley with it. I don't think P Will would run through the WW division in the way that others believe he would...he could definitely be outboxed and could be outbrawled by a faster puncher.

              I think mosley is the better brawler, but a tall boxer with range is all wrong for mosley

                True, but P will does not take advantage of his Height or Reach
