Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Mayweather Dictates The Terms, Not Pacquiao

[GRUSTLER]

Mosley had one opportunity, it was to land something big and be consistent in doing so, he lacked consistency and looked exhausted.

It is difficult for a 38 year old to sustain his punch output through 12, especially at the lower weights where output is naturally higher. It's a good win by Mayweather but people are going way overboard hyping this win, making it more than what it really is. Mayweather did what he was supposed to do, he dispatched a 38 year old former world champion, who was removed from his prime. He showed toughness and some heart to go along with his incredible talent. It's on to the next one and someone like Paul Williams would put a stamp on his greatness. I can't see anyone beating Mayweather but you never know in boxing, when your night comes calling.

I like Paul Williams but honestly. He makes too many mistakes
and leaves himself open tooooo much for a counter puncher
like Floyd with that technical ability and accurate adjustments.
BUT would love to see the them fight.

Great fight, will be replayed over and over.

Yeah my brother was pulling for mosley last night too. That's where I got my $50. But he's now a believer and he's crossed over as Jim Lampley and Steward. But not that hater grumpy old bastard Merchant. Please fire him HBO.

LOL Whoa I won't have none of that talk about the legend.He is from a different time were The best fought the best and not for no check ya dig.Be easy with the old guy would you say sit down grandpa to your grandpa?They are from a time where things were done differently that's all and it's good to get that insight.

Jesus Grustler then retire, you guys seem to think he beats everyone, so what's the point of continuing to be active? He has to fight someone, why not fight someone young and in their prime, regardless of how we can all "predict" the outcome in advance.

I got a little worried too homie, after the 2nd right hand landed. But when he grabbed Shane and tied him up, I relaxed because that ment he still had his faculties together. Floyd's corner erupted when he came back to the corner but as the minute rest period came to a close, you could see Floyd's calmness ease his corner's collective minds. That was pure GREATNESS. It's a shame nobody has mentioned THAT yet.

That is true Mayweather never panics. He's always cool and calm. And thinkin about how they said Pac was so worried when he got cut with Morales. His mental toughness isn't on the same level as Mayweather's and his skill level isn't on the same level as Mayweather's. Mayweather is the best fighter to make in ring adjustments he dont need his corner to tell him nothing he can do it on his own. And how many times have you seen a corner tell a fighter to do something and he don't do it? That's why all that talk about Naz I was worried about it. Cause he can't fight for Shane. Mayweather overcame adversity last night. And I thought he silenced the critics and the haters but that's impossible.

That was me that asked where Rome was lol. And I don't know if we can call that a scrap after round 2. If you ask me it was a lot like the Judah fight. Now that I think of it. That's actually a fight I wanna see. Judah vs Mosley Redemption!

Who you got in that fight lol.

[Chief2ndzOnly!]

Oh please dude relax, you and grustler creating avatars, blowing up pictures and font as if he a beat a "prime" fighter. I give Mayweather credit for the win, again he did what he was supposed to do and showed toughness that I didn't think he had in him, kudos to him, but stop going overboard and exaggerating this win as per usual.

He did what he was supposed to do and it's a good win. I've been consistent in saying I thought Mosley would lose and was correct in how/why he wouldn't be able to pull out the win. It's a good win but you're acting like he beat a prime Pernell whitaker, he beat a 38 year former world champion who in his last 6 fights, was only able to show flashes of his former greatness.

In the bold..............CUT IT OUT!!!!! He beat the same Shane that most people on BS thought would beat him. Just give it up with the age mess. A very fit Shane showed up to fight last night bottomline!

[switchsouthpaw]

uh huh uh huh keep trying to discredit floyd's win. Floyd said put them in the ring with me and I'll beat him. And that's all he's been doin his whole career. How can you possibly find anything to hate on about that?

I'm not discrediting anything, you're "over" crediting. I give him credit, read that again...I give him credit, he did what he was supposed to do. I don't hate the guy and stop throwing that word around just because someone doesn't get as excited as you do about a win.

Would you like some cheese with all that whine?
