Comments Thread For: Mayweather Says Mosley's Lack of a Jab is a Big Problem

[Chief2ndzOnly!]

I'm looking forward to the fight but am less curious about the outcome as I am about what Mayweather decides to do next, anything less than a Shane Mosley caliber level of opposition would be unacceptable.

Why if the Pac fight does not materialize what would be Floyd's next option at WW?

[Chief2ndzOnly!]

Floyd signed the contract for a catch weight and couldn't make it, what's the proper response for not coming in on the agreed upon weight, after making a lightweight hurdle two weight classes to meet you?

The actual proper response goes something like this..."THAT FIGHT WAS A ****ING JOKE"...something like that.

There are things behind the scenes that we as mere "fans" are not privy to. I honestly think Floyd didn't make the "catch weight" to show Pac and Freddie that he will not be drained as ODH and Cotto. It was all for the negotiating table which fell through on some **** we ALL aint foresee.

Zab was perceived as an underachiever who lost to a journeyman fighter, remember how Jeff Lacy was perceived as the second coming of Moses? Funny thing about perception is that it's rarely ever accurate.

This is true. But Zab was not very far removed from world class. I remeber Jeff before Joe and Jeff was a beast before Calzage made him look foolish.

Didnt Pac just fight Clottey?

After losing to Cotto?

Didnt Pac fight Morales AFTER he lost to Raheem.

These are facts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's the million dollar question and the right question to ask. I'd like to see Floyd in against P Will and see how he solves that puzzle, it would be interesting. I think Sergio Martinez at 154 would be interesting, maybe Timothy Bradley. The man had options before, a lot of them and decided to retire instead so what does that tell you?

Cotto pre-margarito would have been a problem. P-Will with his lengthy intangibles would force Floyd to do something different, not saying they would win but I am saying we would be entertained and Floyd would earn respect for taking chances and not just respect from those in his community, but a larger broader appeal in the way SRL and Ali achieved before him.

It was his second fight at welterweight (in the span of only one year) against a naturally bigger and ranked "welterweight". Cotto was still highly ranked and regarded, although admittedly damaged. I'll take names like Cotto/Clottey in my "first" year in a new weight division over names like Judah and Baldomir in the span of "five" years.

For longivity you walk not run.

They are facts, in context a smaller man moved up in weight and in one year faced Cotto and Clottey. Another man has been a welterweight since 2005 and has faced neither, but he did fight his current sparring partner Baldomir so I guess that counts for something lol.

Retiring for 2 years is the equivalent of a short sprint lol. I like that line is that from Deepak Chopra?

Cant wait for this fight, its going to be a great event.

It was all in jest...relax.

Just asking homie. No complex here potna. I was curious, as it is something that Itry to stay away from. But you and I are different individuals, as I respect such.
