Whoever wins, I just hope the fight is close enough to force a rematch. It's about time Shane got paid.

That's your opinion. I find the 24/7s with Pac way more interesting than Floyd's. Pac is the best boxer in the world and the most famous person in his country and I think it's pretty cool how humble and how hard he works. I don't find Floyd interesting at all, it's quite obvious that his personality is an act.

Of course its an act! Its called "promoting the fight", and as much as I hate when he claims to be the biggest draw in ppv, can you argue he's not? Look at his ppv numbers his last 3 fights. How many more times will they show Pac singing, eating with his posse, and working out while "insert washed up celebrity's name here" walks into the wildcard? I swear if you watched any of his 24/7's and they cut out his opponent's part of the show, you'd never know who he was fighting.

Floyd Sr cracks me up! Can't wait for 24/7

Floyd Mayweather Sr. and Jack Mosley have similiar background stories in the sport of boxing. Mayweather Sr. started training his son, Floyd Mayweather Jr., at a very young age and guided his pro career until the two of them had a falling out many years ago. Floyd Sr.'s brother Roger took over as head trainer. [Click Here To Read More]

Floyd Sr. is funny but he is right about Oscar outboxing the **** out of Shane in their second fight. Everyone I was watching with was a Mosley fan and thought Shane was done after that one. The great Bob Jackson called it "A good old fashioned ass whipping." I even remember Shane mouthing "I lost" before they announced that horrible decision. To his credit though, Shane changed his style back to being a boxer puncher & throwing combinations instead of trying to slug & it has lengthened his career. He can still out skill & beat most of the current welters, Pac included, IMO; but he has only a punchers chance with Floyd-which I'll add is not a bad chance. Only thing is Floyd has a chin & recovers well so Shane has to hit him with something big & constantly and I just don't see that happening. Floyd adjusts to what he other guys doing so well that he takes away your weapons & thats what makes dudes like him, Sweet Pea and Calzaghe such great fighters. "They spoil your boxing" to quote Mikkel Kessler. B-Hop does it too albeit in a different manner, Marquez is pretty good at it & James Toney used to do it before he got super lazy (a goddamned shame). Shane better pack a lunch because it's gonna be a long day at the office.

I think Shanes in for a long night bit at least we know he will go down swinging, its funny how Mayweather is the biggest draw and yet he is the only one without a big promoter behind him hahaha

I don't see anything interesting about watching little floyd run for 12 rounds . I pay to see a man fight not run . Shane has always been fun to watch and has been a gentleman out of the ring . Floyd is a street thug like his sorry ass daddy and uncle . I felt like Oscar beat floyd and I don't think I'm ALONE . OSCAR WAS THE EFFECTIVE AGGRESSOR , RING GENERALSHIP AND HAD THE MOST CONNECTS . Shane will have the same affect , the question will be are judges coming to watch a track meet or a fight and will they judge as a fight ????

i can't believe floyd sr keeps admitting that he is scared of pac

(see last paragraph)

They must have edited the story and cut out the last paragraph that you are referring to before I read it. I didn't see where Floyd Sr. said his son was scared of Pac. In the last paragraph that I saw, he said that Mosley is a tougher fight (meaning that beating Pac would be easier) and that Pac fights like a machine, aka robot.

[big_james10]

this is a real fight not like pac vs all time great defensive clottey and all the other old washed up,shot,average,and weight drained fighters that pac beat.

True. Unlike Pac, Mayweather is fighting a guy who actually WON his last fight and won it convincingly.

[big_james10]

how many times does shane have to say it? HE NEVER HAD A FALLING OUT WITH HIS FATHER. he just switched trainers. it was a professional decision. i hate when people, writers, sites etc...say **** that has no grounds. go cover basketball or something.

You are right. Actually, Shane's wife, who controlled his life and career, had a falling out with his father. She was the one who decided to switch trainers.
