            i give mosley a 20% chance of winning. Just cuz he has a punchers chance.

            i see floyd winning 8 rounds and a UD
            No, that is not the case here. Or else the Mayweather-Marquez poll would have looked different, and that was a fight that had alot of Mexicans behind Marquez.

            73% thought Mayweather wins, 21% thought Marquez wins.

              Floyd will outbox Mosley, im suprised Shane got so many votes. Guess a supporter of Shane wont vote for Floyd even if he thinks he'll lose

                  That is a lot of votes for a boxing poll on ESPN, it was at like 45k earlier in the day when I voted.

                    I'm going for Mosley,but not like when I knew Marquez would get sonned & at least wanted him to hurt Floyd!!Mosley has fought the better fighters,has a chip on his shoulders,good speed & great stamina!!I will not count him out!!I know that Mosley has the tools,he has the motivation,he has the power,this is Floyd's hardest fight!!Warrrr Sugar!!!!!

                      We don't know even though Floyd is a 40 fight vet what kind of a chin he has or how he will react towards adversity in the ring and being hurt.

                      I believe Shane can take any WW out if he lands right, his problem will be to cut Floyd off and crack that D somehow.

                      I doubt he will try and outbox Floyd like he said, it would be a poor strategy.
