    Shane doesnt move his head and he doesnt have defense for jabs and right hands.

    He also throws a lazy flicking jab that Floyd will counter over the top everytime.

      mosley has to stay in mayweather's chest.....he has to get off first, and he's gonna have to make it an ugly fight, and do some holding, so mayweather can't counter him as much.


      he comes in there and throws haymakers all night, he's gonna be in trouble.

        If this fight happened in Mosley's prime I'd say 50/50 because Floyds movement will always give him trouble but now that Mosley's old as **** it amplifies the advantage even more.

        Mosley can blast him out of there if he lands that left hook of his, but outside of that I see a precise 9-3 type u.d.

        Why do you think Mosley can't win?
        Why does footwork matter??? Shane's footwork is fine. Better than Jose Louis Castillo who gave a prime Floyd HELL.

          Bigger, stronger, faster, smarter... and can definitely take a punch better...

          If he implements Hattons strategy I could actually see a closer fight on the scorecards.

          If he boxes.. and stands there.. and waits.

          Forget it.
          I can agree with some of this but Mosley's doesn't have Hatton's foot speed. What I noticed is, everytime Shane gets outboxed, he resorts to poppin that short jab; leaving it out there, and then throwing the overhand right. That should be easy to adjust to.

                WTF, Mosley can't cut the ring off and is not a better inside fighter than JLC...

                  I don't think we should underestimate ****m now being in Shane's corner... As well as Bernard feeding him his knowledge also... I think Shane will do better then we think.

                    Neither is Floyd's. The point still stands, Shane's footwork is fine - excellent, actually. And it is not a factor as to why he would lose. Unless someone can explain how.

                      Floyds shoulder gave him hell. A healthy Floyd beat Castillo 8-4 in the re-match.
