      Age is the only reason that may stop people from fulling favoring Mosley. If Mosley were 32 or even 34, but he's 39 you just don't know when a fighter will lose enough ability to be able to beat younger quicker opponnets. Thats what partly happen to De La Hoya. Foreman was a heavyweight and they're all slow. Leonard had no success and Hopkins hasn't fought anyone fast enough to elude him. This is another weight class.

      The only reason Mosley wan'ts Floyd now is because Floyd is being seen as one of the top fighters if Floyd wasn't on top Mosley wouldn't care to fight him. Thats the same reason Mayweather wanted to fight Mosley back then. After Mayweather beat a big name in Oscar is when he felt he didn't have to fight anyone he didn't want to, because he had nothing to gain and all to lose. I f Mayweather didn't fight Oscar he wouldn't have retired he needed a big name and if it wasn't Oscar it had to be someone else of that stature.

        Another point that Mosley hasn't been shy mentioning is that he wants to get paid!!!!

        Fighting the Top guys in the division may be one motive, but its secondary to getting a fat paycheck. Otherwise there were other guys out there for Mosley to fight, but he targeted Pac and Floyd, the two top moneymakers.

          and the two top fighters in the sport if that was the case he could have made the same money for fight berto he would have made for fight margacheato but margacheato was look at as the best so who did moley fight margs that's how he does it he take's hard fight's he could have got tito in the ring but he said first forest has to get it he lost but you have to say who else would have taken that risk money lol

            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

              Agree with that sir.With the magnitude of this fight he's got to be more then ready.My mind is boggled,but i have Mosley slipping for win.If not,contreversial.

                    Yes mosley had problems wit vernon,winky and cotto but two out of the 3 fighters he lost to were big dudes!!!! Not vicious ko artist but hits harer than any WW specially Forrest he's a lanky guy wit leverage in his shots...but shane at WW is a great fighter and so is floyd but!!!! Shane has to bring the pressure non stop no breaks what so ever I remember on the cotto fight he was taking like 30 to 40 sec breaks in the last rounds and I was like WTF!!!! And yes I truly respect floyds skill in boxing and he's masterful Philly shell defence... But shanes a great body puncher and has power in his shots he has heavy hands at WW and a great reach his reach is like 73'' or somthing and he's as fast as floyd and floyd is not gona hurt mosley but floyd can surly keep him off wit accurate lead right and that beautiful spring left hook and floyd should b good but I wana know If floyds gona put on a show or run away wit the cash wit just a ok boxing event!!

                      This is an absolute fact. The issue is there are many posters who have never SEEN the fights they are discussing. A real problem.
