Will Shane get hurt, discouraged, outmuscled, or outworked? No. His problem is hitting PBF with enough hard shots to get rid of him. Shane's no slowpoke; his speed is lesser than Floyd's but not lousy. He'll put hands on the guy. Surely Shane knows to forget a straight right, and use crosses w/ short hooks. I don't think Floyd's defense will prevent him from landing when he's in position to throw.
It's the getting in position that's going to be a problem for him. That's based on a raw physical attribute, that being Floyd's footspeed. I have PBF winning based more on not getting hit moreso than the offensive or psychological damage he does to Shane.
