After Floyd beats Mosley he will probably retire again because Arum knows not to let Manny P. anywehere near a great skilled slick boxer like Floyd.

We all know Floyd isn't going to trade punches with Shane. We know what to expect out of Floyd by now. I just hope Shane doesn't get tired chasing his ass all over the ring. I see Shane using the same tactics he did with Margarito. Make it an inside fight with some clinching so he could use his strength to rough up Floyd early on. In the later rounds, Floyd always starts to throw more punches. That's when Shane can use his quick hands to counter him.

thats not floyd's style, to trade punches, , he will take care Msely with his quickness, and knowledge of the Boxing. delusion ,skills and quickness will beat Mosely. Mosely traded punches will Cotto and guess what was the results,so maybe trading punches is not the right idea for mosely

mayweather , hasnt ever quit on the stool before, secondly, floyd is quicker than shane, and has a lot better defense than shane and he will not stand in front of him, and say hit me so i can hit you back.
go check the Shane/Cotto fight. shane was loading up on Cotto and still couldnt knock him out, but Cotto got stopped by pacroid. Shane is quick, but not quick enough. He can't load up and bombs away like he did in the cotto and margirita fight. Because aganist Floyd once you load up to punch, what you thought was there is no longer there any more. Floyd moves and ducks and spins and counters and knows the ring very well. He is cat quick, that comes from being in the ring since he was a small kid. I think if you research it, that he started boxing at three. So slipping punches and moving is his speciality. Shane did a great job on margirata, but remember before the fight margarita magic was taken out of his gloves, so his confidence was taken along with it. So Margarita had lost the fight in his mind before he walked into the ring. He was going to lose anyway you look at it. He was going to be suspended for loading up his gloves, so he had nothing to fight for and no confidence also. Cotto is slow thats why he got hit so often by Shane and pacroid , but if you watch the fight you will see how easy Cotto and Margirita was able hit hit Shane. where is his defensive skills. you cant when with just offense. Sahne cant slip a punch to save his lfe, and that will be his downfall. Like ALI said you cant hit wat you cant see. DELUSION. I think Dela Hoya said it best . The minute you think you have him set up and have him where you want him, he is no longer there, and you are where he wants you to be. DELUSION

Yeah Floyd is way too slick for flat footed mosley... Floyd UD

EMIL you would go out of your way (2 1/2 blocks) to diss Floyd, regardless of what he does. You would not give him props if he fought both the Klits at the same time, Paul Williams and Martinez in the same week, and went to Haiti to help rebuild the community while deep sea diving to help save dolphins in the Gulf of Mexico. You would still have something to say negative or ****** (usually you do both) to say, regardless.

I only have three words for you: Get Over It!

OMG thats toooooooo funny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mrjoeblive]

I remember Floyd stating "Why should I fight Shane. He is a cheater with 5 losses!" Now he stated he came back to fight the best? So, for ****s and giggles, let's say Floyd wins this fight and Pacman refuses the drug testing! What does Floyd do then? Pacman will fight Clottey, Margarito and then possibly Yuri Foreman and call it quits, since he stated he only wants two to three more fights. My point is if Floyd beats Mosley (which is no given) and Pac refuses to fight him, who does Floyd fight next? Unless he fights Paul Williams (which will NEVER happen), Kermit Cintron or Sergio Martinez, who is left? Maybe Carlos Quintana but that would be deemed too easy, just like Campbell or Malignaggi was...

1st pac already said he will not fight yuri foreman. 2nd i really think by shane agreeing to take the random test, it will force other boxers to comply to show they are not dirty fighters. plus pac went on record saying he wants to fight floyd and the money is simply too much to pass up. there is too much public intrest in this fight for it not to happen without reputations being smeared beyond repair. both fighters took alot of heat for the fight not happening on 3-13. they will fight.

u do realize the mosley-berto fight was gonna be last weekend and they still could have fought?

thats very cold hearted and selfish. the man lost family and friends and you want him to fight for your pleasure? if your goldfish dies you would call in to work and yet you want this man to risk his health when his mind and heart is heavy. you are a ruthless slob

[mrjoeblive]

Did you just call a national tragedy that took the lives of over 200k people fate because it opened up a floyd mosley fight. You are a sick ****. Yea it only took that many lives to force floyd into an actual challenge how disturbing is that.

I'm happy this fight is happening but this article is complete bull**** making both these guy's seem like hero's of the sport. Floyd hasn't faced a real challenge in over 4 years and has made millions from the sport. Mosley is an ADMITTED STEROID USER AND SHOULD HAVE TO DO BLOOD TESTS BEFORE ALL OF HIS FIGHTS.

AND FLOYD IS NOT THE BIGGEST SUPERSTAR OF THE SPORT, HIS FAN BASE IS PROBABLY 1/100000th OF THE PAC'S.

according to ppv numbers, floyd is a far bigger draw/star than pac.head to head floyd out drew pac. numbers dont lie. is a part of this some fans tuning in to see floyd possibly lose? could be but, that means floyd is doing his job well by playing the roll of the heel.

Should be a great fight

[knightoftears]

FINALLY!!!!! I had almost lost hope of this fight ever happening. I am SO happy to see it come to pass!! I believe Floyd will win by decision if it goes the distance. I hope he doesn't underestimate Mosley being able to knock him out. Should be an awesome fight!!
