Comments Thread For: Shay Day: Mayweather-Mosley, Lara, Manfredo

shane is gonna make floyd fight, he either fights or he loses. How can you not think this is gonna be a war? Shane is too strong and too fast to sick back and let May dictate the pace, I believe shane will bring the fight causing Mayweather to take lots of chances he has never taken before. Tell me who has floyd fought with the speed and power of shane?????

The best guy he's fought, and the one who was able to duplicate Mayweather's combinations is Emanuel Augustus. I was having another look at that fight the other day, and I was thinking what a shame that Augustus didn't have a good manager, and trainer. He has a boxing brain, and is very slick, undoubtedly would have gained a championship, although as I noted, he has had a couple or three lesser regional titles..

DLH lost by a point so it's safe to say he did pretty good in the fight and had a shot at winning it! Also Ishe is right, Floyd has never been in the ring with someone that has the skill set of Shane! Also please factor in the corner of Shane now! Richardson will make a difference, trust that! Age won't matter, Shane is not fighting off pure talent anymore, he's being taught to think in the ring and be smart! A couple of notes from Hopkins too! This is gonna be a long night for Floyd and if he wins it will be a career defining win for him! Tho I'm rooting against him and don't think he will win. I would give him total props if he does

It surprises me that anyone could think that Mayweather's "defining" fight should be against a 38 year old boxer, (no matter how fast or powerful) who has to be a fair distance on the downside of his career.

I like Mosley, he always puts out a good fight, and, as a lightweight he was devastatingly fast and powerful. But that was many years ago.

On another point, Mosley won the first fight with Oscar "going away", in other words by a good margin, about 8 rounds to 4. A split decision result just showed how biased the powers-that-be were towards Golden Balls, who, in this fight was outsped and outpowered.


In their 2nd fight (I think at 154 lbs) it was a much slower, more painstaking affair, with Mosley, who was behind after 6 rounds, proceeded to throw solid right hands to the body, which had the effect of sickening Oscar, no matter how much he bent over \and tried to hide behind his specially made "corset" which item protected him well up into his chest area. I've written somewhere before, that I fully expected to see Mosley's fist coming through Oscar's chest and sticking out of his back.

I little "hyperbole", but nevertheless, it paints an accurate picture of the fight over the last 6 rounds.

the scorecards said that DLH lost by split decision but anyone with a brain could see that it was actually a UD for floyd mayweather. even ledderman had it 4 rounds to 8 for floyd. the only reason DLH lost by split was because it's GOLDEN BOY FOR GOODNESS SAKES. known for dishing out bad decisions.

shane has to be really active to win this fight. he needs to actually throw a stiff jab & not paw with it. i favor floyd in this fight. shane is gonna be on a year & a half break by the time fight night comes.
