its obviously you are misunderstanding the context of "came close"

so i rather not waste my time

You underestimate Oscar's effort, so I won't waste my time neither. Everybody knows Floyd struggled against Oscar and that it was in the bag for Oscar if he didn't stop jabbing. By no mean was it an easy win. You must be on something much stronger than koolaid...

mayweather is overrated

Mayweather is overrated. Moesley just has to stand in the middle of the ring and not get tired chasing this chicken. Don't understand why certain boxers have to get tired running after the other. Just let him come if he wants to fight because this is boxing not a marathon. If he refuses then let the ref do his job and disqualify him. ****ing simple, boxing is not a science mi friend. nitramzaid@hotmail.com

If Shane try to outbox Floyd, he's still gonna lose.

I agree. You have to outwork Floyd to win. I think Floyd is overrated. He gives away rd's to guys that are willing to outwork him. He is not invincible, hell hatton and judah were both giving him a tough time early in their fights. Floyd is very smart and very patient and will stick to his game plan and make very few mistakes. I think there are a handful of fighters that can beat Floyd but they have to fight very smart fights and bring it for all 12 rds. Shane is a guy who can beat Floyd its just a matter of what his condition will be like (he has struggled in the past) and will the ring rust be a factor. But he has to outwork Floyd bottom line.

Do you honestly think its that easy for Mosley to stand in the middle of the ring and fight Mayweather. Don't get defensive posturing confused with not fighting. When Mayweather moves around the ring, he is baiting you to make a move in his advantage. Mayweather sets people up for counter punches when he moves around. Its not running its being stategic.

Floyd will have to exchange in the fight sooner or later. SSM is a vet in this game. He wont let these ignorant taunts get to him.

no, it is what it is.

oscar had a good jab going until floyd TOOK it away. and then the rest of the fight was ineffective flurries missing or being blocked. most of the punches play ed 'tag' with the air

so all you were left with was a good bit of ineffective pressure

the fight was a UD with oscar winning 3 maybe 4 rds and thats being generous

Golden Boy Promotions president Oscar De La Hoya made a mistake that Shane Mosley has to stay away from. He got mad at Floyd Mayweather Jr. prior to their 2007 fight and then went in the ring fighting mad instead of fighting smart. De La Hoya used up most of his energy in the early rounds and faded down the stretch. He says Mosley has to ignore Mayweather's taunts and avoid fighting mad on May 1. [Click Here To Read More]

Agree with ODH 100%... He can't let the menace get inside his head an wreak havoc... SSM needs to stay focus and keep a level head, and takecare of business inside the ring.

Oscar didn't stop jabbing for no reason. Obviously Floyd adapted and got Oscar frustrated which caused him to stop throwing his "Jab" that wasn't even that big of a factor, all I saw was flurries on Floyds arms. Oscar put up a battle though. Shane is definetly going to get frustrated and over use the overhand right, possibly getting caught with a check hook.
