[tru2boxingfan]

first b-hop beat taylor in the first fight and got robbed and taylor was a young fast fighter right mosley has not taken alot of punishment over his career that's why he still a good fresh fighter mosley want's to fight money so he is look at as the best in the world not for money he get's money of course money play's apart you not fighting for free and let me ask you when mosley was the bigger name if money really wanted to figh hime so bad why was he not fighting in ww when he was why he never was in the ring with guy's like mayorga forest spinks ?hmmm but yet he was in with judah a natural jr ww i might add and baldy com-on mang

Are you serious? Did you not just read the article about when he issued that challenge. Did you not read what Mosley said when floyd wanted that fight. Even this article states the weight classes both fighters were in @ the time Floyd wanted Mosley. Judah was clearly a ww for yrs before Floyd fight. There is no excuse for that lost.

Underrated =/= Bad

He doesn't use his jab that much now. He hasn't really had to. And when he unveils it late in fights his opponents haven't known how to handle it. Also power per punch is way overrated. He always hits flush. Ask any of his opponents if they expected him to hit as hard as he did.

couldn't have said it better myself

You are right.....Shane is not the man to brawl with....he is a guy u need to out think and outbox........the key is to disrupt his ryhthm.......if Floyd is winning this fight you won't see him become aggresssive unless Shane gassed out and slows down in the later rds.......my only concrn for floyd is that just like Shane he has also been inactive.

I agree 100 % Floyd must outbox him in the early rds. Come out with a pace and workrate like when he trains. We all seen how Floyd is in training mode. If he uses both hands and Shane gases out, he can possibly bring the pressure and force his corner to throw in the towel. Lets be honest if Floyd punishes Shane for more than 5 rds with non-stop combinations and punches that fight is getting stop. People are going to be suprised by Floyd's power, because the extremely underestimate it. I hope Mosley comes prepared, because we all know no matter how much shyt Floyd talks he always comes prepared and respects the fighter come fight time.

You want see floyd drop his hands like pacman to test Mosley strenght.

all i'm saying if floyd wanted to fight shane so bad why did he not go up to welter when mosley was there he called him out but so did hoya who would you have got in the ring with unproven at the time mayweather or the golden boy who was on his way to the hall of fame at that point if he wanted to be in the mix so bad why not go to ww and get it on and make a demand for the fight?and you still did not answer the question why are none of those name's on his resume?listen i like money but i'm not buyin what he is selling that's all.he called out mosley and mosley was getting his place in the hof so i'm not sayin money duck mosley or mosley duck mayweather but if we talking bout ducking meayweather does duck alot more then mosley and that's why it look's that way i'm just happy to see the fight get done and zab always and alway's will be a jr ww why he's back there now man you know that zab move up and just got it on with spink's but not a true ww you know that .

Mosley jump 2 weight classes to take oscar @ that time Floyd was still in a lower weight class. By the time Floyd got to ww, Forrest was a jmw and that fight never even came on the radar. Not once where there talks about that fight.When Floy move to ww he was lookin for the big fights they didn't give it to him so he went for the titles. Belts played a factor for him getting that De La Hoya fight. Winky refuse to meet Floyd @ 147, why should Floyd have to jump to 154 to take on a fight that he is the bigger star in. We all know what Cotto's camp said about fighting Mayweather so who has he ever duck. Mosley wanted this fight when Mayweather became relevant so what you saying and most people are saying.

That because Floyd left Top Rank, made himself a major star with great self promotion, he doesn't have the right to reject offers he doesn't feel is going to make him a lot of money.

Now the same thing can happen what Floyd. Floyd can reject someones offer to fight and take a bigger fight. That fighter who rejected can work hard come up, become a self promoter and major attraction. Than when Floyd wants that big pay day and he can take another fight if he chooses. Right now the only two stars that are selling tickets are Mayweather and Pacquiao. Those are the big fights for other stars.

All i gotta say is the Pretty Boy is going down... hes trying to show that hes not scared by talking this smack lol, this fight only happend cause PAC/PBF fight didnt go through and the SSM/Berto didnt happen because of the Haiti tradgedy, PBF wouldnt have fought SSM otherwise, he clearly didnt want this bout... he was cornered and nowhere else to go, the public would have definitely dissed PBF more if he didnt take it.

Fck all that talk about past fights... this is the present people SSM is hungry hes gonna be ferocious, PBF is gonna get the beating he deserves... SSM train is comin. He knows hes gonna lose thats why he has a policy in the contract that states IMMEDIATE REMATCH if he loses!

[simpac]

I want Mosley to win. Then Pac-Mosley. Floyd-Valero

the other thing that bother's me about money is he say's it's not about legacy so he prove's me right even more he don't wanna take hard fight's were it will be seen that he might not win i've been watching money when since he was prettyboy on late night hbo when i was like 11 i'm a young guy but i've never seen him in a fight (untill now)that i felt he had a chance of not winning if would have got in there with spinks a good boxer forest a mega tall linky with some pop or mayorga i may feel a lil different i'm not sayin i wanna see him lose or hoping for it i just want to see him challenge hisself and if you feel like he has been doing that with fight's against baldy and judah at welter i can't agree with you there

[check hook]

Floyd's jab is excellent, I find it odd when people say "Floyd has low workrate, no punching power, only sits on the ropes and shoulder rolls or runs, a poor jab, no offensive arsenal" etc....How could he be such a great boxer if this was the case? Floyd's offence is ridiculously underrated he can throw any punch in the book at any time and is insanely accurate.
What is the point of throwing 70 punches in a round and landing 20 when you can throw 50 and land 40?

Not a fan of compubox, but since it's introduction Mayweather has the best for and against punch stats in history post compubox.......he is incredibly accurate......the reason is simple....he doesn't throw a punch just for the sake of throwing (like Williams or Margarito) he throws when he knows it will land....ie...the other guy is off balance or he is countering.
