    Is Mosley going to take a tuneup?

    Glad to see the fight finally signed, but shouldn't Shane be taking a tuneup? Seeing as how he hasn't fought in over a year, which will be 16 months by the time of the fight.

    That's such a dumb question.

    He's been waiting a ****in year, and has fought 45 plus fights.

    Would you recommedn Jesse Felciano to bore us while he gets sharp?

    Or perhaps maybe killer sparring partners, which GBP could get in a heartbeat.

      Why would he take a tune up when he the fight is three months away? His trainer doesn't have a problem with it and neither does he. It's not like Mayweather has been active either. 12 rounds in 2 years. To me, this is just an early excuse if Mosley loses..

        Agreed completely and I'm tired of reading it.

          People need to stop talking about Mosley's layoff. He's going to be fine...

          How many times has Money fought in the last two years? Mayweather would never approve of Mosley fighting before his fight because of two reasons. Mosley is going to cost him and GBP millions if he loses, or looks bad, and he has a chance of getting hurt.

          What if he gets hurt in his tune-up fight? What if he looks horrible in his tune-up fight? He can get all the practice he needs sparring in training camp.

            Seriously?

            I know you are not dumb.

            So why ask a extremely dumb question like this.

              You don't think 16 months is too long between fights for a guy 38 years old?

                Take a tune up and fight Mayweather 2 1/2 months later? That's not smart for a 38 year old. No need to risk losing or suffering a bad cut. Mosley is still fresh on everyone's mind from demolishing Margarito for the WW title. Floyd-Mosley is the second biggest fight in boxing. Here's to its success!

                    No, because Mayweather fought one time since 2007.

                    Mosley is going to be fine. You expect him to have two fights and two training camps in a few months?
