    You also realize you come off as a ****, sometimes the way you reply?
    I do, but it really only happens after Ive been in NSB for more than 24 hrs. I want to be in here all week cuz I'm pumped about the fight, but I think it might be making me a bad person!

      Shane also lands combos on the heavy bag, but that has nothing to do with the subject at hand. He doesn't put punches together the way he did when he was at 135, he wasnt able to do it against Winky 5yrs ago, he cant do it against Floyd now.

        That is true Floyd never gets much credit for his insane preperation and how seriously he takes his craft.

        If Mosley can make his jab be effective he can win, if his jab is what I am used to seeing I doubt he can find a way to win.

          Well as long as you realize you are coming across as a ****.

          I won't hold it against you... maybe you need a breather though.

          Try out the lounge for half an hour.

            Oh i agree he was much faster during his 135 days thats obvious but saying that Shane is just a plodding, flat footed slugger is just so ***ing dumb that words can't describe how dumb that statement is.

                This is a message board isn't it? We're all arm-chair warriors unless you prefer the dumb ***** Vs ******* gang insults way of racking up 100's of posts per day.
                Flatfooted? Wow just wow!!!

                  I think a better terminology would be; that he is more flat footed, than he used to be.

                    I already had to take one breather in there earlier (our TV convo and a couple others).

                    I will be back to a full fledged lounge lizard tomorrow and next week after I either take my lumps in here on Monday or I come out and stick it to some people.

                      You can implement an excellent strategy to outhustle or outwork Floyd.

                      Or try to expose his defense in one way or another...

                      But the thing about fighting Floyd is..

                      You can't get tired while you are doing it.

                      At all.

                      In any round.


                      Floyds stamina is partially what makes him so great.. his skills coupled with the fact the man does not get tired, at all.


                      To me it's one of the biggest differences in this fight... I think Floyd will be able to sustain a higher energy level than Shane consistently throughout 12 rounds.
                      Floyd is probably the best at being efficient

                      In movement in punch output in exerting himself

                      no wasted actions
