Do people really think Mosley ducked Floyd?

Ohhhhh I like that. If I could give you some green K I would but spread it our first. And, you really believe that fight was a robbery? IMO to close to be called a robbery. I mean I can see people thinking Hagler, I even score the fight different everytime I watch it. But, was it really a robbery?Comment

I wouldn't fight the biggest challenge on my first fight back after a 2 year lay-off I would take a more calculated risk especially when the best fight for me is against manny pacquiao financially thats just me putting myself in his shoes i'm not sure what his motives were.Comment

Yes i feel it was a robbery, do i like a guy who wins 2:30 of each round, or the last 30 seconds? Thread Stealer once said this isnt a figure skating, you dont get style points for making it appear like youre doing something, he was barely scoring effectively and he wins the ****ing fight? thats bull.Ohhhhh I like that.

Mosley is accused by many of ducking floyd at 140, but at the time mosley was chasing de la hoya for a mega money fight and thats what he did. Floyd does the same thing. Then mosley gets slated for the "toothache" episode. If you look back and at what actually happened you can see a different story. Floyd had the 4 nov 2006 date down as a day to fight and was looking for an opponent. He called out mosley and mosley was interviewed at the end of his vargas fight about the possibility of fighting floyd. This was in july 2006. Remember, mosley has also fought vargas once before that year, in early 2006. To be fair to shane if you look at his record and what he says, he never fights more than twice a year and would have had to fit 3 fights in if he wanted to do what floyd wanted, fight at the start of november 2006. Plus mosley was fighting at 154 at that time and said he needed more time to adjust back to 147. I dont really see a problem with what hes saying. It seems reasonable to me, he wanted to be at his best for floyd. So he suggested that floyd take up margocheatos offer and he will fight the winner. Fighting in july at 154 against vargas then again in early nov against floyd at 147 for his third fight that year is tough and is not ducking someone, it is simply bad timing. Yet mosley gets slated over and over for it and wrongly IMO.Comment

I thought Leonard had some rounds in the bank early. I thought Hagler was coming on strong in the end. I think Hagler made a mistake fighting right handed. I know he was trying to prove a point but I thought that was a huge mistake. I have no problem with the decision. There has been time when I had Hagler and times where I had Leonard winning.Yes i feel it was a robbery, do i like a guy who wins 2:30 of each round, or the last 30 seconds?

The only thing I don't like about that fight is that is 12 rounds I know why Hagler agreed but I wish he wouldn't. If it was a 15 round IMO Hagler swept the last 3 rounds and win a clear decision. I find it funny though that Leonard gave Duran and Hearns(years later) rematches but never Hagler...
And, bro it seems like you take everything serious when it comes to Floyd. I didn't mean to offend you with the whole Floyd is not Leonard comment. Is the net bro I don't get offended and take it what serious about what people have to say about Pac. I just laugh at all the ****** ****...Comment
