Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Mosley Unloading on Sparring Partners

Mayweather will not KO mosley, lets bet our points on it?
First of all, I think floyd will win but would not be surprised if mosley can pull out the victory. If floyd does win it will most likely be in boring fashion, technically beating him, being very defensive and landing the cleaner punches. If he was going to KO mosley he would have KO'd marquez in under 6.

Agreed. The likelihood is that Floyd wins by three or four rounds, in rather boring fashion. Shane has the tools, not to mention the motivation, to pull out an upset. Lets hope he fires on all cylinders for at least seven of the twelve. That's enough to put a spanner in the works.

Agreed.......For the most part. IDK if FMJ KO's SSM, being that SSM hasn't been KO'd before and has a damn good beard; but I can see Floyd getting a stoppage if he hurts Shane, or drowns him in the championship rds.

Typo. He wont KO mosley


7 rounds is all it takes.But in convincing fashion.

And floyd doesnt have the power.Defense>Power for floyd.Thats his preference.

Shane is beating up the sparring partners that Dela hoya used when he was getting ready for Mayweather? Is Dela hoya serious when he says this? When he got in that ring with Floyd he was lost out there. Obviously they didnt teach him nothing about Floyd's style. There is no one out there that can duplicate that formula but Mosley's Formula can easily be duplicated. You can find Shane's style in many fighters..technique wise. Mosley is not KOing anyone. That left hook he throws is telegraphed. Floyd will not be where he wants him to be so it will be hard to get his shots off. This will be Boxing 101

Let me correct the typo.HE WILL NOT KNOCK HIM OUT.he doesnt have the power

Dont be fooled FMJ DOES have power. He wasnt considered a "dangerous" puncher for nothing.

De la hoya said he would knock out Mayweather. Then he said Hatton would beat Mayweather. Then he said Marquez would upset Floyd. Now he says Mosley will win. See the trend? Promoter De la hoya just doing his job. Make people think Shane can win so that they will tune in to witness Floyds first lost. After this fight he will say Khan can or Alvarerz, or whoever Goldenboy promotes can beat Mayweather. Problem is Floyd will beat them all lol.

i dont believe a KO will happen just cause Oscar said it

he is just trying to hype up the fight

[-Huey-]

I guess its safe to say Mosley is sparring with Ivan Calderon and if Oscar ain't bluffing and Shane is handling him with ease I think has a better shot against Floyd.

Handling sparring partners don't really mean much. But, to be fair to Shane, Oscar was struggling with the sparring partners. Matter of fact Oscar also sparred Ivan Calderon the 108lb champ for Floyd. And, he could not land a punch on him. Calderon was outboxing the **** out of him... I hope Calderon is not one the sparring partners that Shane is handling. That really will not be impressive...

Not enough for mosley.The last ko he scored was on hatton.(Can we say overrated career?)

He could care less of power,he's comfortable displaying his defense.
