People say Mosley is a tougher matchup for Floyd, how so?

[El Castigador]

They both only have a punchers chance.

But to answer the question

Shane is a tougher challenge. Big, Fast, Strong, Great chin, Great trainer.

I don't really think it matters who's much tougher between Manny or Mosley for floyd!!floyd has never fought,much less beaten anyone of either guys caliber!!I almost snicker at the people that say"well Mosley got outboxed by Forrest",maybe they have never seen him at welterweight huh??Or know who Winky is!!Or doesn't realize that Cotto was prime & undefeated when him & Mosley fought!!Pacman himself fought a post Margarito destroyed vesion of Cotto at 145,instead of Mosley,(just something to think about).Bottom line is Mosley stays strong throughout 12 rounds is bigger,has good handspeed,moves well in the ring & possesses titan like power,so he is absolutely dangerous for floyd period!!

That's what we all are waiting to see if Floyd will step up and finally fight Mosley. Then go and give pacquiao a boxing lesson.

instead of pac

One word "EXPERIENCE" - Mosley has the type of experience that wins fights. Even when he is outgunned, smaller or have other disadvantages. His experience gets him through the tough fights even when he's losing 75% of the fight on the score cards.

Pacman has unbelievable speed and activity that many of his opponents cannot compete with. Add very good power to that and you have a very dangerous opponent in Pacman.

I think he's a touhger fight for Mayweather. People gotta realize that Mosley fought one of the worst fights you could fight against Cotto and he still fought Cotto to a stand still despite what the Cotto butt boys want you to believe. And does anyone find it funny that Cotto never fought like a devastating wrecking machine after that fight? I'm not using this post to down talk Cotto. I'm just trying to explain of how Pacquiao might be a little overrated right now for beating Cotto.
