    Floyd Mayweathers Jab. How big of a role will it play?

    When I look at this match up. I see Floyds jab to the body and head catching Shane everytime and he wont have any answers for it.

    I agree, after the Marg fight everyone swore that Mosley's jab would be the key but that was the first time i've ever seen him throw it with conviction, normally it's just a weak range fighter. Mayweather has a solid jab to the head and body, he just doesn't tend to use it unless needed.

      He'll use it often.

      But not as often as the Marquez fight.

      Shane has a longer reach.

      I think will see more lead rights against Mosley than anything.

      Mosley has major problems against good straight rights.

      Cotto was also able to catch him on the regular with the lead left.

        Sr. has him popping the jab again so this is a valid point. He needs to pop it to Keep Shane honest. Shane's best chances IMO is to hurt Floyd with body shots while they fight out of clinch situations. He would have to muscle Floyd in the clinch and then land hard as they fight out of it. I think thats Shane's best chance land something hard and if Floyd jab is on then it will be even more difficult for Shane to create those situations.

                  I do see him utilizing the jab in this fight.

                  He seems to want to implement his jab much more this time around; as he did in the lower weight classes. I see him using it to disrupt Mosely's attack and to try to keep him at bay.

                    i think shane will try to use his jab early and he will get countered with right hand

                    i don't think mayweather will use his jab early on
                    in the later rounds he should score points with it but not until he will figure out mosley right hand attack

                    i don't think either mayweather should throw 2 many jabs 2 the body with mosley beeing such a good puncher

                    but that's just MY opinion so ...we will have to wait and see May 1st
