Mosley doesn't do well against pure boxers, how would this fight even be competitive?

[ThePunchingBag]

You know, you guys KEEP saying that **** over and over again. You guys are like parrots. If what you say is true, then why do people keep buying his PPV's? He did ridiculous numbers with DLH, with Hatton, even did a million with Marquez.

And now we're on to what? Our fourth (possible) fight now. Mayweather-Mosley.

And the ******* Parrot Troopers come out of the woodwork again. It's going to be a snorefest. The fans will feel they wasted their money. They'll never watch boxing again. It will hurt the sport.

And it'll probably sell like a million plus PPVs.

You guys want a cracker or something?

Are you an idiot?

Yes, I think you are.

Which of his past 3 fights have not been borefests?

I personally know people who have a negative view on boxing after a Mayweather fight.

I will never ask a casual fan to watch a Mayweather fight. It turns them off.

I will only watch Mayweather fights with boxing diehards like myself, and most of them watch only to see Mayweather lose.

Recently I've watched Mayweather's last two fights(Hatton, Marquez), and you're just plain wrong about him not exciting people. The people were in and out of their seats several times during both fights. Even oooohhhing and aaaahhhhwing during the replays between rounds. Unless I'm mistaken, Mayweather is the most accurate puncher in boxing, and maybe one of the most accurate punchers of all time. Why people act like he brings no offense to the table is beyond me. Are people really true fans of the sweet science, or do they just like seeing two guys brawl it out?

good post!!

FACT: Only one boxer has outlanded Mayweather in his entire proffesional career & that was Jose Louis Castillo in their first fight...

NO OTHER BOXER HAS OUTLANDED HIM........

the problem is that people think offense is just throwing punches...even when they dont land

I think a peak Shane would have beat a Peak Floyd, he did beat a way better version of De La Hoya, and apart from a loss to Cotto the other guys were guys Floyd would avoid cus of there long reaches Vernon Forrest and Winky. Now Shane for me dont have a good chance of beating Mayweather.

UM....Mosley was on steroids at that time......

[bojangles1987]

Mosley has decent foot speed and damn good hand speed to. Most of Shane's problem is that he gets ****** into brawls which is how guys like Mayorga and Cotto have outboxed him. Mayweather certainly won't do that, so I don't expect Mosley to look that bad.

Mosley still has the athletic ability and veteran smarts to keep Mayweather on his toes, and Naazim will have a gameplan in place to give Shane the best chance he can.

Since Mayweather's fights are such snorefests, and those that buy them are turned off from boxing, how does he manage to keep getting so many PPV buys?

Who the hell cares who YOU know, when the numbers don't even back up your silly ass ****** claims. If Floyd keeps pushing million PPV buys, then your Parroting obviously isn't worth much more than the nuggets that come out of your ass.

Why do YOU buy HIS PPV's? If they're such snorefests, and they're turning off fans of the sport, why do YOU support FLOYD?

Why do you say **** that makes absolutely no ****ing sense, that the numbers don't back up, and then start calling people who point that out to you, idiots?

Props to Mayweather if he does take the Mosley fight. I hope he doesn't injure himself in training. I'm also interested to see how the Olympic-style drug test comes out.
