    Calling what Shane did vs Margarito dancing has got to be even dumber.

      Nobody is saying that he is Alfredo Angulo in footwork, he still moves but he doesn't bounce anymore either.
      Thats expected but it not like hes standing on his heels either is he? He's still on the balls of his feet and he completely shut out Margarito by using great footwork. Ricky Hatton is always bouncing on his toes and anyone can see even though Shane doesn't bounce anymorethat he sure as ****t has a hundred times better footwork than Hatton.

        Lumps.
        I can take lumps and I'm not scared to take them real or elumps. I stand for what I stand for and my prediciton is out there for all to see. I will not retract them and I will own up to whatever happens and if Floyd wins I will certainly give him the credit he deserves.

        Just like I did after I talked a lot of shi t about how the sales were gonna be for the JMM fight. I ate crow in a thread I made all day and to this day I defend Floyd as being the biggest draw in boxing, I don't change my mind a month later and start crying all kinds of bullshi t. Whatever, do the crime, do the time. I can't wait to see a lot of people on here's true colors when Shane wins this weekend.

          I am the same way... never had a problem owning up to a wrong prediction.

          In fact, I am hoping I am wrong.

          I hope I come in here Monday and have to own up to it... I hope I do.

              I will get smashed out of my mind in honor of Shane if he wins.

              People think sometimes I'm a "*****" because I bet on Floyd or think Floyd will win every fight.

              It really just comes down to me recognizing his skills, but I'm not really a fan.

              But, I do respect him inside the ring.

              On that note:

              WAR SHANE!
              If Shane does win, Ill pass the over to ya!! LOL

                Oh I'm sorry I guess what your saying is it didn't look "cool" or "slick" enough for you. Well allow me to retort! Good footwork isn't about looking cool for the cameras it's about how effective is it for you and against Margarito Shane delt out a beating but everytime Margarito fired back he hit nothing by air because Mosely had already moved out of range. It's not like he was stalking him ala Julio Ceasar Chavez and just walking into the guy. Seriously next you are gonna tell me that Bernard Hopkins, Wladamir K, Vitali K, Winky Wright, and Lennox Lewis all had horriable footwork because they didn't "bounce" or don't "look" slick enough.
