Mosley-Mayweather: The Strategy

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

Bumped for debate.

mosley is very good with the counter-counter right hand. i think mayweather will be hesitant trying to counter over mosley's flickering jab with a right.

[HeavyHitter]

I see Mayweather coming forward early on, setting a pace, winning the first 4 rounds simply because Mosley or any of us will expect it. then he will relax for a few rounds 5-8 these rounds he will allow Mosley to come to him and just try and counter etc, then rounds 9-12 he may know hes winning the fight and just win 2 of the final 3 rounds by pot shotting and countering again!

Looking at some of the 24/7 training footage it looks like Mosley will try to lure Mayweather into throwing his counter right hand over the top by throwing a couple of lazy jabs, then step to his right and counter the counter with a straight right hand himself.

If you peeped that you know Floyd did.

But they knew the cameras were there and filming though, I don't think that move is anything Mayweather hasn't seen before. I think what Mosley showed there is a pretty basic thing to do but it could be effective at times during the fight.

Thats true. I dont know if it means much but from what I seen I think Floyd will let his hands go more and string his punches together. When he goes offense its downright scary like in rounds of the Hatton fight.

Shane's legs...

Will it haul too much arse or hold up?

That's my concern. The idea of Shane cutting through the ring to chase Floyd might bid goodbye because of his legs.

He needs effective jabs to compensate for it, moreso his power punches must land accurately.

A little waiting to go

it definitely is downright scary against smaller guys. i dont think he will employ that too much tonight, but it is possible if shane gets a lead

I don't really see that happening by choice to be honest, I think if Mayweather is letting his hands go more it will be because Mosley will force him to fight, Mosley is one of the guys that can do that.
