Comments Thread For: Floyd Mayweather: "Mosley Has Problems With Boxers"

[Calilloyd]

Mosley a body puncher? Since when? What Mosley you been watching kid? Mosley is a head hunter and always has been one.

You've got to be kidding, man. Mosley is one of the best body punchers in boxing.

I luv the **** talking for this one!!! Cant waitt

Floyd if you beat mosley in a good fight you will get the respect you deserve. He has been outboxed by guys like cotto, winky and forrest and they fought him closer to his prime. And since your considered a top p4p guy and very good boxer you should win this fight. However, shane is still a very good fighter and it is the toughest fight you have taken since castillo at lightweight. I SUGGEST THAT FOR ONCE YOU DON'T JUST TRY TO WIN THE FIGHT. IF YOU ARE CLEARLY THE BETTER MAN SHOW THE FANS THAT AND TRY TO BEAT UP ON SHANE. I STOPPED LIKING YOU AS A BOXER CAUSE YOU NEVER TRY TO HURT YOUR OPPONENT. GO FOR A KNOCKOUT AND YOU WILL BE SURPRISED HOW MANY PEOPLE START CHEERING FOR YOU.

As if Mosley is an easy fighter to knock out.

A good strong jab is the way to beat Mosley. Shane can't get into a rhythm if u stick a jab in his face like when he fought Forrest, Winky & even DLH took Mosley outta his rhythm in their rematch with the jab. When Shane fought Cotto i thought Shane would win cos before that fight Cotto was a brawler & threw hooks & uppercuts but Cotto did his homework & jabbed the head off Mosley, although in saying that a good jab is also the way to beat Mayweather.

It's actually difficult to argue with Floyd here. He puts his points across ok.

I personally think we are gonna see the best Floyd and Shane come May 1
and while I think Floyd will win via his boxing skills..I dont see this being easy!
Floyd respects Shane in the ring..I think the first couple rounds will go to Shane, while Floyd feels him out..once he catches the rhythm..I see him outboxing Shane..but, if Shane is able to engage w/ Floyd..Shane may have the advantage. whoever wins this fight gets FULL credit & respect. period!

Brawlers age faster than defensive boxers...true story!!!

I dont think so..defensive fighters rely more on their reflexes and technique..and w/ age that deminishes faster...

If Mosley doesn't look for the KO....IMO...he won't have problems. Once he starts looking for the KO...different story....just keep touching with the jab and keep pressure...

On a side note...Floyd mentioned that some fighters still perform well in their 30s and early 40s....yet regarding Pacquiao..."Fighter's aren't suppose to get better as they get older"....which is it Floyd?

dude, hes not saying that B-hop/Foreman..ect got better and improved as they aged, hes saying they were great fighters and they still perform well at their age..Pac on the other hand is improving with age and was a mediocre fighter, who got better as he aged..thats what hes saying!

Maybe PBF has a point but he would never face Forrest, Wright or Cotto.

Floyd wanted to fight both Wright and Cotto so that statement is irrevlant. Idk why people keep bringing that up. Shane has a shot to win, but what all of shane speed and power people can't really tell me you can't see that punch coming.

If you put pressure of Floyd, when does that end well for the fighter. Hatton go his ass ko for it. Everyone wants to talk about the first JLC fight, but dont mention how he was completely outboxed during the 2nd fight.

To me Floyd uses his footwork and counter punches Mosley pretty well. Also he utilizes the jab as Shane has been exposed to not being able to handle the jab. Floyd is also more accurate with his shots. Usually Floyd tries to reach in for a straight to the body I don't think he does that this fight. He will jab and counter shane when he rush.

Hate to say it but I agree with every single thing Money said on this article. He did call out Shane back when he was on a mission taking everyone at 130 to 135lbs. Mosley only does well against flat footed fighters who just stand there or walking corpse dehydrated fighters that were mentally beaten before a fight like his last win against Margarito.

[El Castigador]

Shane is going to look every day of that 39 years on May 1st.

You are 100% right.

[El Castigador]

mosley has problems against boxers with a jab. winky kept it in his face all night long and cotto snapped his head back with it almost eveytime he through it. but floyd's not known for his jab, he'd rather lead with the left hook. floyd needs to lead with the jab in this fight

Naw Shadow he can snap the jab when he fels like it. If he KNOWS that thats Shane weakness you better believe he'll lead with it.
