    How do you see Mayweather-Mosley playing out?

    How do you think the fight will go???

    I think Shane will come out and try to work hard from the opening bell and take the first round off activity...

    I think the first half of the fight will be back and forth action...high speed chess match in the center of the ring at times and Floyd sticking and moving...

    Rounds 7-9 the fight is close and Floyd becomes more defensive and waits on Shane...Shane plays cat and mouse with Floyd and Floyd gets the better of counters while Shane tries to cut off the ring...

    Shane is somewhat frustrated by the championship rounds although he's still in the fight...Shane can compete with Floyd in the center of the ring but Floyd mainly prefers to move in and out...Shane lets it all go in the final round while Floyd does enough to make the round close and probably edge it...

    Floyd wins a competitive 7-5 UD(or 8-4)...maybe even a split decision...

    *Just writing off the top of my head* What do you see happening this Saturday???

    Early rounds will be competitive and close but Mosley's speed disadvantage will become apparent. He will struggle to land hard shots, even though he'll land a few. Mayweather will pick him apart and win 7 of the last 8 rounds clearly.

    Mayweather 117-111.

    (I really hope I'm wrong).

      I really think this is going to be a convincing win for Floyd, Shane is a top fighter but Floyd is one of the best ever. I see the first 4 rounds maybe being competitive but after that Floyd will just make it his fight. I really cant see Shane winning more than 3 or 4 rounds.

          Not that it hasnt already been said, but I think Shane comes out wanting to get Floyds respect early, and since everyone knows Floyd will take a round or two to figure you out before really doing much I think Shane will win one of the first two rounds. Other then that I think Floyd will pot shot Shane on his bike the rest of the time. Shane will end up leaping in and bombing away at the air for the rest of the fight. I think Shane manages to win about 3 rounds because when he lands it will be hard shots, but he wont be able to land enough. The crowd will boo the holy hell out of this fight. Floyd becomes p4p #1 after dominating someone who would give Manny all he could handle (more then he could handle in my opinion.) And this is all coming from someone who would love to see Floyd knocked out. Not going to happen unless he makes a huge mistake. And Floyd didnt get to where he is by making too many of those.

            Flyod gonna be on his best defense ever, meaning he will just run and throw least possible shot, while old man Shane gonna be chasing Flyod the entire fight for another boring UD win to Flyod.

              If Mosley is dumb enough to chase Floyd around the ring, then thats what type of fight it will be. If Mosley wants to test the waters with Floyd, then he should stay in the middle of the ring and make Floyd come to him. Don't chase him, do what Pacquiao did to Cotto. Call him out to fight in the center of the ring.

                Mosley's in a no win situation, at best he has a puncher's chance. He doesnt have the stamina nor legs to chase Floyd productively, Floyd wins convincingly.

                  Mayweather puts on his boxing clinic, giving Mosley trouble through twelve rounds. We'll see if Mosley is in fact "old" as a lot of people on here like to point out, should this fight go the distance. Either way I can't wait.

                    shanes only chance is to let it all go in the first 4/5 rounds and just pour on massive pressure...we all know floyds game, but shane gotta avoid that at all cost and make this a short brutal war...money's on money though *sigh*
