    I got Floyd by UD.

    I think Shane will trouble him with his speed, body punching, and overhand right.

    Floyd will shell up, hold, and potshot for the points win.

        I can dig it.

        I also think that Margo fight is why alot of people are picking Mosley, but like you said, there is alot more to be told about that fight and win. Margo was taylor made for Shane, and it showed.

        Now on the other hand, I always believed that Shane would be a much better fighter with a good/different trainer. He has that now, and I believe that will be the difference. Shane has always had the tools, but never had anyone to tell, or show him how to use them. Late in his career, he just might have that now.

            Very hard to argue that point. If I was putting money on the fight, it would be with Floyd.

            But, I really do think Nazeem will make that much of a difference.

              I truly believe Mosley is gonna win also!!I believe Shane is hungrier than floyd is!!I also think that Mosley will apply more pressure than floyd has ever seen!!Mosley is bigger,stronger & fleet on his feet!!Mosley fought Margarito the way he did because that was the gameplan!!Mosley knows floyd is a counter puncher who fights backing up!!His counters aren't gonna bother Mosley,floyd doesn't posses a strong jab!!Mosley is gonna shorten up his shots,apply pressure,beat on floyd's lead shoulder until it's sore,all the while attacking the body & ruffing him up!!Every fighter gets hit,in this case Mosley has the tools to hit floyd,he's gonna hit him hard,all night,Shane doesn't tire,floyd will fold under the Mosley assault!!

                That is sort of how I see it as well. Mosely winning do to a great gameplan. I can really see it unfold just the way you stated it. I believe Nazeen will sit Mosley down (like he does B-Hop), and will have him study tapes to death. If there is a flaw in Floyds armor, they will find it, and attack it all night.

                Plus, Nazeem is Known for taking away what fighters do best. Now with Floyd that is alot, but Naz will have something up his sleeve.

                  floyd by 10rd TKO

                  shane's hittable, floyds defense was made for fighters like mosley. there's nothing floyd loves more than a fighter following him around the ring looking to take his head off. thats when master boxers are at thier best. i think richardson will stop the fight in the 10th due to acumalation of punches. i believe we're going to see a vintage mayweather (135lb) performance. dont get me wrong, both men are comming to HOOK so it will be a shoot out...

                  just my 2cents

                    Check this Handspeed,remember in the floyd-Oscar fight,when in around the 4th or 5th,Oscar started to to jab up floyd's shoulder,I saw floyd getting uncomfortable from that,he shook his head,he knew it,Shane should watch that,floyd can move his head quick enough,but his body isn't moving that fast!!

                      I don't think that there is anyway we see the Floyd from 135 ever again. Now with that said, Floyd does still have a bit of a killer instinct when he gets fighters in trouble, but nothing like 135.

                      Now I do agree with you that Floyd destroys fighters that come straight at him, but I think that will be the first think Naz will change about Mosley. He will have Mosley appying pressure from angles, not full steam ahead.
