    He is old ,inactive,and he's having a hard time making 147
    Hegot outboxed by Cotto.
    Even Ricardo Mayorga made Mosley look bad.


    Yet Mayorga was behind on all cards and got laid out for a 10 count. Yeah...OK

      correct me if I'm wrong. I'll dig up your post history.
      Exactly. All I saw a month ago from people like him was that Pacquiao-Mosley "would be a war" and that Mayweather was "afraid to face Mosley." Now all of a sudden, "Mosley was old" "Margarito couldnt fight anyway"...these are not boxing fans. They are just people who have an agenda.

        nope, shane today was just slower and older but people are fooled by his performance against margarito who is more worst fighter than mayorga. But still an old past prime mosley should be a 50-50 fight against floyd.

          That comment I never understood. Margarito was the #1 WW at the time... Margartio arguably has one of the best WW resume this past decade... But, to be fair some people who make that exact comment on the bold are Floyd fans...

            Not true... Now you making me look bad... Margarito honestly was a way better fighter than Mayorga...

                Not unless you are a ***** and believe that fighters at the lower weights improve the closer they get to 40!

                  I think Floyd should wait 5 more years so he can fight the prime version of Mosley.

                    Margarito was right in front of Shane, easy to hit, easy to grab. Floyd will frustrate the hell out of him. Mosley hasn't seen decent speed since he fought Cotto over 2 years ago. A guy with Floyd's style will make him look his age.

                      Does not also the fact that Marg got caught cheating in the dressing room before the fight possibly have some bearing on Antonio's mental state during the fight? just a thought.
