      Mayweather: Lacks power, doesn't like getting hit and never trades shots. His chin is also questionable because its never been tested besides that one time Judah knocked him down. If a fighter can cut off the ring and set traps then he's basically screwed (although that's MUCH easier said than done and nearly impossible because only Castillo was able to do that in the 1st fight, but he failed miserably in the rematch along with every other fighter who fought Floyd).

      Mosley: Lack of footwork, bad gameplans (although this was before ****m became his trainer), on and off type fighter and he's very vulnerable to jabs, as shown in his fights with Cotto, De La Hoya and ESPECIALLY Forrest I.

        Judah didn't knock him down.... He took the shot full on, and his legs didn't even buckle or wobble. Id say his chin is above average, just because of that shot.

            mosley is far from slow...wtf?!

            mayweather's hands are fragile, and no one tries floyd's body, he doesn't trade

            mosley's chin seems to float around in the air, and hangs around when he moves

              Very true. Now that I think about it, he tripped because he was punched on the way back. That was a result of Judah's amazing handspeed, which is something Mosley doesn't have even though he is pretty quick. Heck, Judah's arguably faster than Pacquiao (for the first 3 or 4 rounds of course lol). But yes that was a very clean punch and he took it very well.

                I dont see a weakness but for Mayweather, it seems he always starts a slow pace and picks it up in the middle to championship rounds. This will be Mosley's only chance to rack up the points and possibly win a SD, he better fight hard for the first 6-7 rounds. The only problem is that I've seen Mosley get discouraged when he's being outboxed and if this happens Mosley might be in for a long night.
