    He has a better right hand, better gym habits, he is more hungry and is probably just better overall if we are comparing where they are/were at even if Shane is older.

      I think this is going to be a damn good fight. And I've always thought that Mosley was the only one who has the skills, and ring smarts to beat Mayweather. Although I don't think he will. But Why do ppl always talk about Mayweather's character??? Mayweather has his own personality outside the ring, like we all do. But he has never been disrespectful in the ring (except what he does to his opponents). Whereas Mosley has begun a recent transformation. He got in the ring at Mayweather's last fight.... I just do not like how ppl tend to judge athlete's for what they do off the job. We watch them, and they get paid for their profession, not what they do off the field, or in this case out of the ring.

        If oscar could have kept that jab going he might have been able to pull of the win, I think mosely can fight for 12 rounds. However, I think floyd is even better now than he was against oscar though, so we'll see if mosely has any magic left in him.

          I see what your saying, but think about it for a sec you just cant help being influenced by a fighters character when your supporting the best fighters out there. I mean i really admire what i see of him in the ring and ill always tune in for that reason. So with that im a big fan of his abillity and im literally in awe at times watching him. Most of the time after watching him win im satisfied and like, good job and think what a complete boxer! I just cant help rooting for the other guy and i base that on me not liking him as a person. For me to be a complete fan of a fighter I have to like them inside and out of the ring im sorry, and just about everyone else i speak to is this way too im afraid. The thing in his favour is the same as Naz when he was fighting, and that is people still tune in even if its to see him get beat!

            I thought his jab was the key, which he stopped using.

            That was his best weapon.

            But SMM doesnt have a great jab and will probably try and pressure Floyd.
            It should be interesting tho.
