    WTF was up with Mosley?

    wft was up with mosley? he was shaking and extra jittery than normal, like he's
    having a ped withdrawal or something. i've never seen him fight like that. from the
    opening bell he was already fidgety.

    it's just disappointing to see him fight like that. from rounds 3 to 12, he stopped
    throwing punches. no overhand rights, no left hooks, just jittering around like an
    amateur.

    props to mayweather, the guy is amazing. but really it was a combination of pbf
    looking really good and mosley looking horrible. it's hard to say pbf will dominate
    pac basing from this fight.

    sad to say but i think mosley needs to retire. one of his best quality is when he
    gets tagged hard, he gets pissed and comes back at you harder. he can't do
    that anymore.

    Either Mosley is just past his prime (highly doubt it), or the fight was fixed. just my 2c

      He was worried about the counters, he started gasing and the target wasn't so clear...

          He felt Floyds speed and was gun shy. I remember very early in the fight Mayweather countered over Mosleys jab with a right hand and then Shane was put on notice.

            Two words.

            Ring Rust.

            16 month lay off taking its toll.

              Uh ****in mosley hasn't looked good against a boxer in 5 years man. Get a clue. Mosely is DONE except against punching bags like Margarito who don't move.

                  he looked like he was having a seizure in there with all that jittery movements. LOL. and his foot coordination was awful too, he was almost stumbling all over the place. Mosley can still KTFO any WW out there. But he will always get outboxed by good boxers. Cotto still beats him.

                    Blame it on the intrusive procedures of USADA.

                    Now Team Pacquiao can continue to blame blood drawing too close to the fight for being the main culprit in losing a fight.
