    no one barely landed in the 1st round.

    he caught floyd with a lucky punch in the 2nd and floyd had to recover.

    once floyd recovered , floyd put it on him.
    I beg to differ Floyd came out there nervous and mosley lined up a shot and tagged him. I think Mosley's hand speed surprised PBF at first. Plus Mosley's reach advantage was apparent in the beginning rounds.

      We won't know mate.

      Power is a mixture of all things considered. A prime Mosley (unlike the one last night was surprisingly gasping for breath, age perhaps) is def more powerful than Manny. But he tightened up last night and Floyd simply lorded it over, props to the latter.

      Though can be arguable if we factor Manny's only one-shot punch KO to Hatton.

        Some good arguments there.

          Mosley hits harder but Pac's punches are more accurate and hurt more cause his opponents don't see em coming. Pac can throw hard, accurate punches right on the sweet spot from positions that noone else can.

          He can also anticipate his opponents movement better than Mosley. Pac knows where his opponents chin is gonna be in advance, sometimes he doesn't even have to look to land his shots right on the button because he can anticipate his opponent's movement really well.

          He also sets up his power shots better than Mosley does and doesn't telegraph them half as much.

          Pac is cut from a different cloth than Mosley. His resume speaks for itself.

          People still think having a devastating offense is all about strength, but it really isn't

            Thanks mate!

            Sugar Shane really was outclassed by Floyd, and hearing Naazim talkin' to Mosley about holdin' up or hanging it down says a lot of team Mosley's recognition to what was happening.

              the difference between pac and mosley is that pac lets his hands go while mosley was relying on one shot

                So Manny isn't more powerful than Shane. Thank you boxingscene forum for answering this question.

                  We should ask mayweather if that's true when he's sound asleep after pac lands a left hook on him!!!!

                    the thing is manny throws a hell of a lot more and a faster pace.

                    Speed creates power.
