      And... everyone pretty much just dismissed that Mosley won't have the stamina.

        PBF impressed the hell out of me. I eat crow. Taste terrible but if this is the new PBF I can show him respect. He fought very well, I don't think it would have been that easy with Mosley five years ago but he fought there and did his job.

        Very very impressed with PBF. He fought tonight.

          Mosley kind of pulled a Jermaine Taylor against Pavlik, he wasted a ton of energy both when they had their man hurt and with constant unneeded movement.

          Mosley fought like a sprinter and Mayweather (like normal) fought like a marathon runner wasting nothing.

            Mosley didn't have the stamina. But Floyd surprised me by standing in the middle of the ring with Shane. Floyd did what he had to do. Shane just wasn't there in top condition.

              With his juice thats true. Clean Shane Mosley gets tired throwing 10 punches per round.

                i expected mosley to gas quickly because of the long lay off combined with his age but jeez mosley was gassed by the middle of the 3rd round. gotta wonder if the 2 long training camps for preparing for first berto and then floyd, caused mosley to be overtrained...

                  Nope, Mosley put alot of emphasis on that.

                    mosley is all class, he would not take away anything from his opponent. my statement is not meant as a knock on floyd's performance. its just mosley lookin as tired as he did so early was a huge red flag to me in this fight! its not like floyd ever attacked the body for mosley to tire so quickly

                      Great point on the stamina, but he didn't have the skills either. A magnificent performance and yet I read in disbelief the amount of discrediting comments posted up. Indeed it does seem he can't win. I wonder what the excuses will be if Manny should ever fight him.

                      That performance tonight was a thing of beauty.
