Floyd Mayweather will be the 1st man to knock Shane Mosley out.

[JM1]

And I already answered that question in my INITIAL post. Shane represents one of the big money fights that Floyd came back for. I'm not saying Floyd is gonna fight Shane toe-to-toe for the entire fight. That'd be dumb. However, once he starts timing Mosley's rhythm, the domination will begin (just like every other floyd fight except for the first castillo fight).

see? your own twisted logic confuses you. read the question again and try to analyze

I wish people would stop saying 'oh Floyd coulda knocked JMM out'. I mean listen to the ***ing MAN HIMSELF. Floyd said in the post fight interview that Marquez was just too tough to stop. Who am I going to believe? Floyd, who was in the ring fighting, or a bunch of nuthuggers on a forum? Yeah, the former...

Anyway, I think it's very, very unlikely that Floyd will stop Mosley. He couldn't stop Judah, who is a mental weakling who breaks down easy, Floyd couldn't even really hurt him seriously in 12 rounds. I don't know how many counter right hands, clean right hands he hit Hatton with before the punches took a dramatic effect. And Mosley's a big strong welterweight who has taken the punches of Forrest, Mayorga, Winky Wright, a prime De La Hoya (big difference) and Margarito. Hell no, Floyd ain't gonna stop him. That's ridiculous. Mosley is gonna be in his ass throwing heavy leather. A Mosley stoppage is more likely

I'm convinced that Floyd Mayweather is going to become the first man to KO Shane Mosley.

It won't come from one punch obviously. It will come from an accumulation of punches. I'm 200% positive that Floyd Mayweather could have knocked Juan Marquez out in ten rounds if he really pressed for it.

Just like the Baldomir fight, Floyd didn't press for the KO because of the risk involved. The risk of bigger paydays against Shane and Manny were simply too much to gamble. Floyd just played it safe and STILL beat every ounce of man out of JMM.

When Floyd fights Shane, it will be a different ball game. Floyd will put more on the line this time like he did against Chico, Gatti and even Hatton. This is a fight Floyd has wanted since 1999.

Shane Mosley fights with EGO first, intelligence second. That kind of mentality plays right into the hands of a master thinker like Floyd.

The jab will be key. I see Floyd unloading on Shane in the latter rounds. Jabs, lead lefts, straight rights, etc... Remember, Shane has good footwork, but he rarely moves his head and a lot of the time he stays in punching range while not punching.

If Shane wins a round after the 5th I'll be shocked. Put it like this: after this fight I don't even think the *******s will be pushing for a Mayweather-Pac fight anymore.

take pills son

Ironic much, coming from a *******

[pasawayako]

he couldn't stop a blown up LW that the outweigh by 15lbs, how will he gonna stop shane who is a legit ww and that could be bigger or have the same size with him.

[pasawayako]

floyd is a junior middleweight that punches like a junior lightweight.

[pasawayako]

What do you mean JMM had nothing to offer? He sure had a hell of a lot more to offer than De La Hoya and Ricky Hatton had to offer Pac.

JMM fought his ass off, but he was simply OUTCLASSED. Also, JMM may not have looked RIPPED, but he wasn't near fat or out of shape.

Fat is Oscar De La Hoya and Ricky Hatton between fights.

I already told you why he played it safe against JMM.

The only reason you're dissing JMM is because Mayweather destroyed him and Manny Pacquiao STRUGGLED mightily with him. It's really that simple. LOL!

the only reason you're dissing dela hoya and hatton is because pac destroyed them completely without even winning a single round while floyd escape a controversial split decision in dela hoya and the ref was in favor towards floyd against hatton.

That wasn't taking a chance. That's called counterpunching.

Ehh...whatever.

Edit

Why would he have to lay up on the ropes against Marquez. You fight according to the opponent in front of you. Or maybe he stopped going against the ropes against JMM because he got tagged with a right hand doing that in round 2.

I'll give you that one. That right hand Marquez landed in the 2nd round was kick ass.

[Michael Hall]

Theres always dreamers like you who try to talk rationally about Mayweather to hide the nuthuggery. Floyd ain't knocking Shane out, i'm sorry. Reality check.

Did you forsee Vernon Forrest putting Shane down twice? Was Vernon Forrest a huge puncher? If you think he was then name another good fighter he ever ko'd in his career.

[pasawayako]

Lets just say you don't analyze the fights the way I do. I'm rarely surprised by outcomes in boxing because I pay attention. I'm not perfect, but I pay attention to detail.

Floyd KO'ing Mosley seems very obvious to me.

1. Shane has limited head movement.

2. Shane is a limited thinker. He tries to beat fighters at their own game instead of using his own unique style. Shane is a legendary sparring partner because he's such a good mimic.

3. Shane is 39 years old. I doubt he can stand up to the amount of clean shots he's going to eat from Mayweather for 12 rounds.

4. Shane hasn't fought since Jan '09.

5. Shane won't be able to use PEDS, so his true stamina will be tested.

6. Last and not least, Floyd is better than Shane in damn near every department.

Floyd has a limited offense and a runner.
