    Mosley cuts off the ring just fine, I don't know WHERE you get that from. And we're talking about footwork not infighting.

      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.
      Mosley has to maul and manhandle Mayweather to try and break his will and tire him out so that he is more vulnerable.

        Yeah but even in the rematch, Floyd struggled. I'll never forget how insecure he sounded, turning to Roger and repeatedly asking, "Am I winning the fight?"

          Cutting off the ring is pointless if your're taking jabs and right hands to the face.

            Footowrk matters cuz' Floyd moves all around the ring.

            Shane's footwork is garbage imo. He needs you to stand and trade w/ him.

            Castillo was a much better all around fighter than Shane.

              That's fine but that wasn't my point.

                You will not break Mayweathers will and you will not tire Mayweather out. Those 2 things you can COUNT on.

                  If history in this sport PROVES anything... it's there can be a first for everything.

                  Nobody is unbeatable.

                  NOBODY.

                    Floyd doesn't move around the ring as much as he used to AT ALL. In fact, he is much more stationary and potshots much more.

                    Second, Shane needs you to stand and trade with him? Tell me, out of Shane's losses, how many were against "movers?"

                    Finally, I'm not even going to touch your last sentence. Let's just say, I wholeheartedly disagree.

                      One of the reasons Mayorga made Shane look so bad is cuz' Mayorga has good legs and good movement.
