Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Mosley Can't Get Mad at Mayweather

[Chief2ndzOnly!]

Just make sure on May 2nd you're not on here talking about how old Mosley is aight

I think he'll be here homie. He's pretty much a stand up fella.

this is a dumb statement---i've fought for years, and i know boxing styles like the back of my hand, and the way to beat floyd is outhinking him when it comes to timing your movement and punches and agression---i don't see mosley winning more than 3 rounds, if that---mosley can listen to oscar all he want, who really lost to floyd by ud---max kellerman said it best---9 rounds to 3 and the rounds oscar won, he barely won and outlanded floyd---oscar always predicts against floyd until he dominates the guy oscar picks to win by a landslide---and floyd will dominate shane---shane fights very stiff but he fights hard, and this will make it look like he is competing with floyd, but floyd fights well against guys who fight hard and throw many punches, because floyd uses their aggression against them--that's what he did to oscar, floyd cruised in that fight, and oscar fought very hard, and started to use his aggression against him, landing punchhes through his combos and offsetting oscar very well---shane fights like a robot, but he fights with confidence until he gets tagged consistently coz shane will leave himself open for hooks and jabs---and when shane tries to jab to floyd's body, he will get countered by floyd----coz when shane throws the jab to the body, his position is so bad that even the slowest punches has a great chance of landing over it---floyd will landand step away at the same time, only to reposition himself to land another punch that shane won't expect--and he will keep shane off balance and disrupt his timing--this is what floyd is the master of---shane will lose this fight bad---then manny is next to get another loss on his record---oscar will once again have to eat his words once his partner loses to floyd bad---and oscar will be 0 for 3 in predicting who will beat floyd---he was wrong with hatton, jmm, and will be wrong with shane also---oscar couldn't get the job done and gbp almost robbed floyd---we all know when oscar jabbed, he landed only a few of them, and lost confidence in it, only to explain that he didn't know why he stopped using it----this guy is a professional and turned pro before floyd did and couldn't explain why he stopped using the only punch that seemed to work for him that night----he always says he woulda coulda and shoulda did this and that in the fight with mayweather jr, but he didn't---because he wasn't skilled enough to beat floyd and neither is shane and neither is manny----and clottey---

oscar says he found it easy in the mayweather fight---but he lost, and the rounds he did lose, he lost one sidedly---he tired himself out and that's because floyd landed punches that tired oscar out and offset his rhythm enough to get himself more fatigued and move in directions he didn't want to move in--thus having to move more than he wanted to, and as soon as oscar dropped his guard for one second, he was nailed consistently by floyd, bucked by floyd, could have been knocked out in the 12th round when floyd staggered him, had floyd pushed the action more---oscar and hopkins can say what shane'll do all they want, floyd is going to dictate this fight and shane's movement--and he will be stronger than shane in this fight also, i truly believe floyd will hurt shane---he will throw more combos at shane, and we have to remember something about how floyd throws his punches---he throws them perfect, very sharp, form many angles, and while feinting---he counters while feinting, he lands jabs and hooks and right hand leads while feinting and i wouldn't be surprised if floyd turned southpaw on shane and hurts him when he does it---this is floyd's fight folks---shane is in for a long night as well as goldenboy promotions---wait and see---

Golden Boy Promotions is probably hoping Floyd wins. Mayweather Promotions isn't licensed to promote fights yet, so his banner is all smoke and mirrors right now. Golden Boy is promoting Mayweather. So they hope he wins so the big money can keep rolling in. Why else would they scrap Shane's Jan. 30th card just because Berto pulled out. Shane is just another bump in the road for the Golden Boy money truck to run over.

You're drunk if you think Mosley, Cotto, and Margs wouldn't mop the floor with JMM. I happen to think that Mosley could wipe the floor with Pac if they ever meet at 147. Some fighters can't scale the weight classes like others. Marquez is one of them. If Mayweather cared about cleaning up the sport he would have gone to the commission to make it a requirement for EVERY fight, not just his. Are the fighters under his banner undergoing Olympic style bloodtesting? No. This is all a charade. Is Amir Khan doing random bloodtesting for his fight against Malignaggi? No. Because Golden Boy and Mayweather don't have "good hearted" reasons for requiring it for Manny. No one was talking about steroids until Mayweather Sr. said something now all of a sudden people are crusaders. Give me a break. If you can't see the forest through the trees, that's your problem. These people care about themselves and nothing more. They're no better than politicians. Talk the talk to get you on their side, then flip you the bird after they get what they want. Oh, and Marion Jones NEVER tested positive either. You can never catch everyone. The drug makers are ALWAYS one step ahead of the testers. OH, AND THAT P4P TALK IS ALL CRAP. IF HOPKINS FOUGHT MARQUEZ AND BEAT WHO WOULD GIVE HIM CREDIT?? NO ONE! Pound 4 Pound rankings are a joke in my honest opinion. There are weight classes for a reason.

i like your thinking

[amayseng]

Your logic is weird. You say Mosley is gettin jerked around by the biggest draw in boxing but yet Pac offers Clottey 90/10 split and that's ok? Ok Mayweather didn't make weight for the Marquez fight but when did he ever fail to make weight at 147? And then you say Mayweather didn't make weight because the fine wasn't big enough well then that's like saying Pacquiao could be on steroids because the testing isn't good enough and he can't be detected. So I fail to see your logic.

ENOUGH OF THIS ****

time to be f ing honest.

floyd fought near 155-160 lbs agains a jmm who is best at 135 and
puffed up to 143 for a ww fight and big pay day.


TOTAL MISMATCH no matter how you try to twist the ****.

Exactly. All this P4P crap started because SRR was able to move up in weight and had success doing so. All fighters aren't the same. Some people don't have to proper body type to allow this to happen. It's garbage.

[Rome-By-Ko]

NIIIIICE!!!!!! It's not for me to say weather he BELONGS at WW or JWW, or LW. But I tell you what homie and correct me if Im wrong. IF JMM puts on weight to contest at HW(LMAO) and wins a bout that has the HW title on the line, is he recognized as the HW champ?

Well played lol.

Not my style son.I'm a man and stand behind what i'm saying now.Moses is my fav fighter and if he lose's he will still be my fav fighter.I'll just be eating crow that's it lol.

I got Sergio on this one. Kelly hasn't seen this level of comp since B-Hop. And Sergio hits harder than most give him credit for. Who you got?

i love sergio, i think he beat pwill.

however, i think he is there to be hit at times, although very slick.

so i think pavliks power wears him down.

pavlik is so linear and busy, but with more power than pwill
