Shane mosley isnt prime no more......

[struglerer]

Why give someone credit for something they were "forced" to do? That makes no sense.

Also, thanks for stating the obvious, we know that Shane is not prime, but he is the champ in the division. When Floyd fans say Shane was not prime anymore last year, you guys ripped them to shreds.

cause his fighting.......a non blown up lightweight...........thus the props.............(i know mosley is a former LW tho)

[V.WEBB]

he shoulda still be prime after..his self imposed exile/ducking........while others fight it out ....lol

Just stop man.

Can Shane Mosley at this stage of his career cut the ring off? He didn't do so well in the latter rounds against Cotto.

Floyd is past his prime too. Look at his fights at 130-140 compared to now. He's slower, weaker and relies on timing more than anything. In his prime he had timing along with lightning speed and combinations, one punch KO power and much more offense. He has an old man's body right now. He injures his arms, back, ribs, hands, etc. all the time. Even his boxing clinics aren't as impressive (look at Mayweather-Baldomir at 147 compared to Mayweather-Corrales at 130).

Prime Floyd vs prime Shane would be just as challenging, and I think Floyd would win by decision regardless if they're both in their prime or not.

The Best of the Decade of GIVING IT ALL FOR THE FANS,thats Legendary Manny Pacquiao

I hate how people keep throwing out Paul Williams.

Dude is a ****ing middle weight cutting weight to pick on smaller fighters.

Of course with his physical tools he will give anybody at Welter a hard ass time. That's why he can get no fights at Welter

Dude if he follow on the DEAL and reach the weigh in....Why not?
Boxing is segregated by WEIGHTS not HIGHTS.

You seem confused. You said Shane isn't in his prime. I demonstrated that Floyd isn't either. What Mayweather "crap" am I agreeing with?

floyd should be near prime.............we all know SSM fighting almost all the best available fights..............while may was dancing with them hollywood stars............

[Owlzfan84]

Neither is Floyd.

disagree.

and Shane isnt exactly in his prime, but he's still got a lot left in the tank. If Floyd wins he deserves credit.

He's definitely past his prime IMO.

Roach on why No Mosley fight for Pac, "Too Good a Fighter" "Not Enough Money"

"Shane came to the gym twice to ask me to let him fight Manny," Roach says. "I told him no both times, and both times for the same two reasons: First, there isn't enough money there, and second, you're too good a fighter."
