Is this why Haymon paid Berto step aside money?

    Perhaps thats the reason this fight was made. Add to that all the rumors that Mosley was getting his ass handed to him in sparring.

    Give Mayweather another "name" while almost guaranteeing him a victory against an old and shot guy.

    Nothing in boxing happens by accident especially when you have someone as opportunistic as Haymon and as careful about who they fight as Mayweather.


    Mosley looked EXACTLY like Roy Jones against Hopkins a few weeks ago.

    A lot of twitching and feinting and no punches past the 2nd round. A lot of you are overrating this win, but the true lot of you know that wasn't anything near a prime Mosley.

    I truly believe a prime Mosley would've finished him in the 2nd.


    I know this will be childishly interpreted as a "hate" thread, but I'm being realistic.

    Lets look at this for what it was.

    I said before the fight that this was a B level fight for this very reason and I stand by that statement.
    WHat step aside money?

    Berto pulled out because his relatives got killed in the Haitian earthquake.If anything Mosley was fast and powerful in training so what step aside money are you talking about

      BPP reported that Haymon paid Berto step aside money to pull out of the fight.

        The same way Roach new De La Hoya couldn't pull the trigger and chose him for Manny for that very reason.

        Word travels fast in boxing gyms.

          This.. Even after this loss, I'd pick Shane to demolish Berto.

              That was 1 round.

              Mayweather has a good comeback round 3 and Mosley just falls apart?

              Come on man. I'm just being realistic about this fight.

                  in boxing you need one punch

                  one punch

                  he was one punch away from sleeeping time
