    Floyd is clearly a more talented and skilled boxer than Shane

    I like Shane Mosley as a person better than the mouthy, arrogant Floyd Mayweather and I'll be rooting for him to pull an upset.

    But from watching their fights it's abundantly clear that Floyd is more talented and technically skilled.

    Even if Mosley were the same age as Floyd, the outcome would be the same - Floyd would win, although the scorecards would be somewhat closer.

    My prediction: wide decision win for Mayweather, something like 118-110 or 119-109. Mosley has virtually NO chance of winning, mainly because he'll not be able to land many punches on Floyd.

    Manny's next, Manny thought Marquez was tough! Wait until he gets a load of Floyd. Manny's New Nightmare is coming! Team Mayweather already knows Manny is planning to switch from southpaw to orthodox when he fights Mayweather!

          I also think that Floyd will dominate Shane. But the thing with Shane is, you can never count him out. You will have to stay sharp for all the 12 rounds.

            I think it's wishful thinking on their part.

              I feel this way as well. The talent gap will be huge in this fight.

                And much younger too. Mosley has nothing going for him at all.

                    its such a shame the bookies odds dont reflect those polls and writers opinions. Shane is a big underdog for this fight.
