    .
    If those were the factors, then why was Judah being dominated in the middle rounds?

    * yes, i know Judah isn't Mosley.

      I thought Triangle theories were one of your pet peeves, hmm

        But did Judah get Gatti'd? No. He did get destroyed and landed like 80 punches (which is sad), but he did dominate some early rounds and his horrible stamina played a big factor in the later rounds. He was even beating Floyd to the punch at one point.

          I think people forget how one-sided the second third (middle rounds) of the fight was.

              But if your point was LITERALLY gatti'd? No. You are right.

              how often does a championship-level fighter get gatti'd? That was a once-in-five-years type occurence.

                I think he's going to get beat to the punch all night long just like in the Cotto fight, however Floyd will keep up the pace and look to make a dominant statement. I think Floyd will go for the KO.

                I think Floyd's sharp and accurate punches will eventually cut up and take out the Shooga man.

                I honestly would love nothing more than Shane winning since he seems like a great guy and is a great boxer...however I just get reminded of SSM's fight with Mayorga and believe that his fight against Margarito was an abberation as opposed to the norm.

                We'll see...I think I should put my money where I mouth is.

                  Shane is by far a better fighter than Judah.

                  But in my opinoin if fights where only four or five rounds he might only have one loss to Tyzu.

                  Judah is a very fast starter a "front runner" as Floyd would put it.

                  I doubt that Shane will have same success as Judah at any point of the fight.

                  Unless he comes out like a crazy person like in the second Forrest fight.

                  Mosley is a steady fighter who can slowly gain or lose momentum depending on how the fight is going.

                  I think Floyd frustrates him early and take his heart in the middle rounds.

                  Mosley attempts a late run and fails.

                    I said he's going to Gatti Shane and I stand by that statement, I expect a complete domination of Shane Mosley.

                      i actually think this will be floyd's greatest performance considering the opponent.
