    Can anybody who thinks Shane beats Floyd debate my breakdown.

    Mosley vs. Mayweather

    I see Floyd starting off with a jab to the body an head over and over because Shanes weakness is a goodjab and hes not skilled enouh to time them. Dont believe me watch the Cotto fight. Cottos jab owned Mosley and kept him at bay and uncomfortable. Floyd does not lead with his jab alot but against Shane as WE ALL KNOW Shane struggles with jabs and Mayweather has a good one.

    I see Shane getting hit with that jab to the stomach and getting circled Constantly by Floyd who will not stop moving in this fight. Floyd has the footspeed to dart in and out on Shane and get off punches. I see shane having to sell out to get again and thats when I see him him tryng to bull rush Floyd on the insde during the clinches alot.

    Mayweather Like I said will make himself a damn near immpossible target to hit by his constant circling and movement. After a few arounds Floyds lead right will start to connect and along with a jab that is the punch that Shane has no defense for. I tink the handspeed edge goes to Mayweather IMO. Shane is fast but I believe in the Cotto fight...Cotto was as fast or faster.

    Mayweather will be circling, pot shotting darting in and out and using the shoulder roll which basically gives righties a slim chance to land anything big. Shane will have his moments but they will be few and far between I see him throwing and the crowd cheering but they wont be landing effectively. Shane is a very wide puncher when he wants to be and after he realizes hes down on the cards hell look for ONE shot and then my friends thats where this fight wil get UGLY for Shane, because Floyd will tag his ass non stop and might even drop Shane a few times. No not because of power but because Floyds accuracy, speed, shanes aggresiveness, his wild swinging and the fact that he punches with his eye close. The punches that hurt are the ones you dont see and they can pout you on your ass.

    Shane has a real dislike for Floyd but he respects him. In the ring I think Shane will be looking for that ONE punch that never happens as Floyd turns his face to a pinata.


    Mayweather UD or late corner or ref stoppage. (Too many punches wil land Flush on Shane)

      I have Floyd winning a decision, but he won't stop Mosley by any stretch because he isn't that aggressive. He'll land shots on Mosley, but Mosley is an aggressive and much stronger fighter than what Floyd's been used to for quite some time (and more so at WW). You also have to think that Mosley's really got nothing to lose and everything to gain as where Floyd's got A LOT to lose. Big intangible there. Stylistically, it's not the easiest fight Floyd could've gotten, but he's a great counter puncher and if he's able to leave Mosley in the middle of the ring, he wins. But...are we under the assumption also that Floyd WILL NOT be hit in this fight? We have yet to see him get hit by a strong WW who's also got a hell of a chin.

      I don't see it as an easy win for Floyd, but I still think he'll pull it off.

        Mosley is gonna disrespect Floyd's power, taking wild shots while Floyd stays on his backfoot the entire fight landing one punch at a time.

        Floyd UD in a boring 12 rd decision.

        Mosley can do a photo shoot for Ring magazine after the fight if he wanted to.

        It looks like he only just had a tough work out since his face shows no sign of damage.

        That's my breakdown.

              One punch at a time will not beat Shane, especially not a jab.

              Floyd could very well beat Shane, but I dont see a jab to the stomach being the key. Actually a left jab to the stomach is the easiest punch to counter with an overhand right which is one of Shanes favorite punch. Floyd will have to throw punches in combination to beat Shane. Floyd doesnt have the power that Vernon Forrest had so Shane wont have to be afraid to get inside of Floyd the way he was againsts Forrest. Forrest had the size advantage and so did Winky against Shane, but in this fight, Shane has the natural size advantage against Floyd and that jab theory wont do it. Cotto not only threw jabs, he also threw combinations, none of which hurt Shane. In my opinion, the jab is what kept Cotto in the fight. Shane had landed way more power punches and clearly dictated the pace of the fight as Cotto ran to the finish line in a fight that Shane was robbed in. Floyd has a different style than Cotto and doesnt have the punching power to hurt Shane. Floyd will have to use combinations and movement to outbox Shane. Floyd has the skills to do it, but expect Floyd to get knocked out if he thinks he can just jab Shane to the stomach and win the fight. He will surely get knocked out!!

                I agree for the most part, but no stoppage for Mayweather.

                    Bet with that guy in the other thread. He doesn't seem to understand Mayweather's style or attributes too well.
