    Would a prime Mosley beat a prime Mayweather Jr?

    Or will Mosley always loose because he sometimes throws wide shots and gets countered with jabs and straights from fighters like Wright, Cotto, and Forrest.

      Mosley is Berto, he will get whooped by Mayweather Jr. All that speed Mosley has with his overrated skills.

        Mosley has a better shot at 147 than he would have at 135.....Floyd is slower with hand and foot at 147 whereas Shane is about the same as he was at LW.......i feel like Floyd would beat SSM at 135 the way he did to Castillo in the second fight......just not even let Shane get off and constantly be moving.....Shane has a good chance of catching Floyd at 147 IMO

            At 135 maybe, some people forget how much of a beast Shane was at 135. And, people forget that Floyd even though he stopped Agustus he was getting hit alot by Agustus at 135. And, Floyd had two tought fights against Castillo at 135. And, Shane Mosley at that weight was light years better than both those guys. People really forget how beasty Shane was. And, Floyd threw a lot more at 135 so he had more openings to get hit. I

            s not an easy win for Floyd at all. Shane Mosley at 135 could possibly beat him. But, Floyd could easily win also.

                Shane at 135 was not only faster in hand and footspeed but was also more explosive. And, threw way more combos. At 147 he does not throw the combos as fluidly as he did at 135. And, also even though Floyd beat Castillo clearly the second time. It was still competitive. And, Shane was way better than Castillo faster and more of a powerful puncher.

                  i think it's one of those situations where Floyd would prob lose the first fight, but win a subsequent rematch and then the rubber match after he adjusts.
