Does Floyd have enough pop to keep Shane at bay?

we will see!! stop assuming... floyd has enough pop if that was the case how does he win pot shotting in all his fights

tough one, my guess is he'll fight just as he did with Oscar, and take it on points.

And Shane's got a better chin and even at this point in his career, is faster than Oscar was in '07.... and let's not forget, Shane will likely be the strongest guy that Floyd has ever faced.

This fight will be like Floyd vs Oscar. But Shane is much faster than Oscar even though he is very old.

If you're a boxing fan, you're watching this fight, PERIOD. This is a beautiful fight.

Go watch MMA or UFC.

I know Floyd not the strongest fighter but damn you guys be underrating his power so much is ridicolous... He has enough power and hand speed to demand Mosley's respect I can tell you that... Even Mosley can't get hit as clean and square as floyd hits you, too many times without it taking effect, and Floyd will definetly throw the shots that Mosley dont see
