    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
    Floyd is scared? I haven't seen any sign of fear on his face since the fight was announced.

    The winner will be the one who is mentally stronger, who will be capable of executing what they do best.

      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.
      Good observation. I've noticed it, but wasn't sure if it was just Mosley's demeanor or indeed a true sign of mental weakness.

        Mosley but i think this fight will come down to stylistics and who is younger, thats Mayweather imo.

        I thought Mayweather exhibited a lot of anxiety early in the Hatton fight, i also think he picks and chooses who he wants to fight because he is no where near! as confident as he likes to portray, he is ALWAYS looks to grab advantage, IE the weight fiasco against JMM or fighting older guys who's reflexes are gone.

        Some guys will fight anyone in the world at any point, now even though you might think they are deluding themselves they will fight anyone, take Froch, he has an unshakable belief and a true confidence in himself regardless how misguided it is, Mayweather's is all fake, he does however have great professionalism in terms of he is always in top shape, he is generally always switched on when he fights.

            I believe they are both mentally tough.The only thing is Mosley IMO has been in tougher.I believe it's going to show up.People feel like this is not going to be a dog fight or that Mayweather is just gonna popshot his way to an easy victory.This is far from what I see happening.Mayweather has more skill but Mosley is a harder puncher and has a dog mentality.If this turns into a dog fight(Which I think it will)Molsey has the mental edge and will stop May.

              So who was mentally Stronger in their first fight Ali or Frazier?Frazier whole style was to take punishment to land his punches because he was a small HW.Who was mentally tougher?

                  cant judge a persosns mental toughness just from 1 fight, judge it from a whole career, all im saying is just because someones has been involved in more gruelling fights, doesnt mean to say their mentally stronger

                    Both are very strong mentally


                    But Shane has been places Floyd hasn't......being the huge underdog (Oscar, Margarito), knows what it feels like to lose, was on the verge of being KO'd and survived(Forrest), ect....we don't know how Floyd will react if he feels he's down on the cards late in the fight, or if he suffers a knock down or gets stunned by a huge puncher like Shane

                      He wasn't saying a fighter who takes a punch to give a punch can't be mentally stronger, he's saying that style doesn't automatically mean they are mentally stronger.

                      Frazier had one of the greatest trainers of all time in his corner. Michigan legend and hall of fame trainer, Eddie Futch. The determination of Frazier to execute the gameplan provided by Futch proved to be the difference.
