    Mosley is, he's more rugged and has been in more wars than Money.
    mosely has also taken a bunch of more punishment which imo makes one mentally weaker. u have to take punches to be gunshy.
    mayweather has got into his head with the testing. u could tell in the 24/7

        I think the term 'mentally stronger'm means how much punishment you have taken the way some people are talking. A fighter who has been in 7 gruelling fights is 'mentally stronger' than a fighter who dominated evryone he faces without taking punishment, dont think so

          I don't know anyone who wants to take punishment, but backing off after receiving a flush shot from Marquez was a sign of intelligence. He showed great mental strength by refusing to engage when not necessary. Other boxers might have let their anger get the best of them and run into a second shot.

            I think Mosley is tougher. He's naturally the calmer person. Tougher mentally IMO. Floyd's a bit emotional , like a chick.

              Mosley's my boy and all but..........Mayweather

              Mosley gets this look in his face where he just doesn't know what to do and stops letting his hands go. It's very frustrating to watch as a Mosley fan.

                Come on guys. You can hate Floyd all you want, but how can you not be 100% absolutely certain that FMJ is mentally stronger than Shane?

                Floyd puts on an act for eight weeks, and then turns it off on a dime. Like you saw yesterday at the presser.

                Floyd has never looked discouraged in a fight. I have seen Shane look discouraged at certain points of at least eight fights. No lie:
                middle rounds of Oscar 1
                Both Forrest fights
                Both Winky fights
                vargas 1
                etc...


                Floyd doesn't get manipulated teh way that BHop made Shane a marionette or the way Shane has been pimped by GBP and Jin.

                Floyd has accomplished everything with a single trainer. Shane is, what - on his fifth trainer change?

                  I see Mayweather smiling, clinching him when Mosley gets too aggressive, and putting a stiff jab in his face every time they reset in the center of the ring.

                  I think this fight is more a test of mental strength, than a test of skills. Both of these guys do what they do better than no one. Whoever breaks down mentally will be broken down physically.
                  floyd is already scared.

                  but this fight isn't gonna be based on who's scared of who like you mofos think. the winner is gonna be the guy that executes

                    That's what I was just saying. Shane does that A LOT.

                      don't think there's much in it, can't say either is mentally stronger.
