do people really think shanes power will lead him to victory over floyd??

[Boxin']

you mean a right hook from a southpaw stance? it will be a first since Mosley is an orthodox fighter not a southpaw.

you should have used some JLC 1 highlights that would have worked better

It looked like a right hand from an orthodox stance to me lol...

[TOBYLEE1]

Mosley has speed+power and an excellent chin, goes well to the body, slight height advantage and long arms. Floyd as possibly more speed and is a defensive genius and will fight when cornered with counters. Not an easy match for either, is more like who is gonna capatalize on the others man's mistakes

[jthoang]

No ****.



Floyd hasn't fought someone with Mosleys power.

He's the hardest hitting man at WW (Maybe Pacquiao too)

So wtf are you crying about?

Wanna bet on that? I got 70k on Floyd.

[Dynamite Kid]

cause thats his only advantage,,he has absolutly no other advantage...so you think power will lead him to victory over one of the best defensive fighters ever???

I think he is making a mistake looking to land with power, he should just be concentrating on landing before anything else.

What are your thoughts on MAB coming back?

Power won't be the main fatcor.

Shane and Naazim have been saying it all along, it's gonna be speed. When was the last time Floyd faced someone with hands as fast as Shane? Did he have trouble?

Chop Chop is a southpaw thus the way the punch was thrown was an arcing right hook that timed Mayweather well

that punch had him HURT IMO but he recovered well and dominated Chop afterward

Judah for about 4 rounds

IMO the best way for Mosley to have success with Mayweather is to actually punch with Floyd. So many of Floyd's opponents look to lead (which makes them make mistakes which leads to Floyd countering) or to counter hoping Mayweather will turn aggressive and open up (which causes it's own problems because Floyd reacts so quickly to punches coming at him most times he can avoid them and recounter)

the people who had success with Floyd are those who decided to eschew everything and try to punch on the same cadence Floyd does. Sometimes it works ala JLC, sometimes people catch Floyd clean ala Corley, but in order for you to have a shot on Floyd you have to catch him while he is punching not after.

if Shane can do that he has an excellent chance of winning but I don't see it.

Shane learned from the Cotto fight and has stopped trying to bomb everything. Something he was doing until his fight with Margarito. They say you learn more from a loss than a win.

I really don't feel Mayweather is a true welterweight, so there are a lot of physical advantages for Mosley. I think Mosley has fought tougher opposition. I think Mayweather can pull off a UD, not a knockout, but it will be a tough fight for him. I am nervous as this is a hard fight to decide on. I hope Mayweather outclasses Mosley but it will be a hard fight, nonetheless.
