I personally think that a prime undefeated Hatton was more of a danger than an ageing Mosley will be. Prior to the Margarito fight (who was taylor made for him) Mosley hasn't looked decent in a while and against someone as skilled as Floyd that isn't good. Also Floyd does have the potential to TKO Mosley whether people like it or not...

hatton was wild, nontechnical and even less disciplined than a wild at times shane.
shane has fundamentals, is technical when he needs to be and is far superior in all attributes at even this late age than hatton was.
plus floyd is past his best prime as wellComment

In Oscar=Mosley 2 where "Shane was embarrassed", all he did was resort to right hand body punches for 5-6 rounds.......
You could track Oscar's downfall by the sickening thud of the punches, the way Oscar kept crouching and bending over more and more as the rounds went on, the way Oscar was pushing up he "patented" body corset chest protector, and the sick look on Oscar's face.
All credit to him that he didn't quit. I was expecting him to puke in the ring, and, at any moment to see Mosley's gloved fist drill a hole through Oscar's chest and come out his back.........
Mosley won that fight well enough by changing his tactics, very successfully. He knew exactly what he was doing.
Oscar was known for hating body shots, and wearing down in the late rounds.....as indeed he did. He hardly landed a punch on Mosley the last 3-4 rounds, being on the constant retreat, and "evasion" mode.Comment

I agree with your assessment. This is the one fight in the last 6 years that i look at floyd's opponent and think to myself, "If he connects, it could be over." However its his defense thats gonna be the key, and the fact that i think he'll hit Mosley twice as much as Mosley hits him. Remember this is a guy that was getting pounded by Mayorga, and if he can catch him with those wild hooks, and Cotto can out jab him i think the frustration will kick in for Shane resulting in Shane at some point spending more time trying to knock mayweather out, while mayweather will be focused on just winning rounds, with the latter being the decisive. But it would be interesting to see what happens if one of Shane's left hooks connected.Comment

any version of shane beats the best version of hatton anytime anywhereComment

I saw the fight and he was VERY ordinary. How much his 30 KO's were worth, I don't know, I never heard of the vast majority of them, so..........Comment

Shane does not have the best chin in boxing Champ. He does have a good set of whiskers on him, but I think it's quite a stretch to say he has the best chin in the sport. Some would've reserved a comment like that for Urango, and we just saw what happened this weekend, to argueably the best chin at 140 right?Comment
