        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.
        Did you watch the JMM fight? He still moves around the ring a lot.

        DeLaHoya gave him trouble and was robbed in the second fight. Shane had trouble w/ Mayorga, and lost to a guy w/ great footwork in Forrest.

        The only reason he lost to Winky was just natural size.

        Castillo is p4p a better fighter than Mosley. Mosley's best asset is his speed and power, if you neutralize that he has nothing.

        Castillo had more wrinkles to his game.

          In order to outbox Mosley you need to be able to outmuscle him, like Forrest and Winky were able to do. Which Cotto did extremely well also but couldn't sustain.

            Speaking of triangle theories, Shane's lopsided loss will prove that Castillo prime for prime and p4p is a better all around fighter.

              That is why they are called opinions.

                No, I missed it . I watched and umm, let's just say that he may have to actually try this time.
                DeLaHoya gave him trouble and was robbed in the second fight. Shane had trouble w/ Mayorga, and lost to a guy w/ great footwork in Forrest.
                I hate blanket statements like this. Can Floyd take the punches that Oscar took? And when you say Forrest has great footwork, what do you mean? His footwork wasn't any different than Antonio Tarver's.

                The only reason he lost to Winky was just natural size.
                Agreed.
                Castillo is p4p a better fighter than Mosley. Mosley's best asset is his speed and power, if you neutralize that he has nothing.
                Yeah, that applies to Pacquiao too. Take that away and he's just a guy who dances really well. Try again.
                Castillo had more wrinkles to his game.
                Such as?

                  cotto "outmuscled" shane? lols.....

                  cotto was able to stand up to shane's bomb's, and land hard shots of his own...and when he eventually wore down, he was able to box well retreating. he didn't "outmuscle" shane tho.

                    He didn't. But he was as strong in the trenches.

                      Shane Mosley can't beat Mayweather because he is old and Mayweather is still Prime (As Floyd said it's more up here (Mind) then it is down there (Body), given that he excels in both and to think otherwise is dangerous.
