      I could probably add that Mosley's right hook was the remedy to beat the philly shell. Once Floyd stopped using it Shane was lost.
      Mayweather being the aggressor was the biggest surprise of the night, but number Two has to be dropping the shell. I could not believe what i was looking at the whole night.

      Can you imagine the discomfort this fight gave Roach, i could almost see him shifting in his seat, him having the realization that Floyd has so many more dimensions than his fighter.

        well it's exactly as Naazim said really, floyd is an in fighter but always on the defensive, lookin for counters and getting out the way. if u look at james toney, a defensive counter fighter but both on offense and defense, u see what i mean. its just Floyd style in offense, hahaha we've just never seen that. and i was really impressed, dude was making him miss and making him pay. Mayweather got another fan in me, fault of Mosley was not to use more speed and letting his hands go more, why that didn't happen is beyond me.. but it was an amazing fight, and even if Shane fought to the best of his abilities, i feel Mayweather would've beaten him.
        Problem with that most people who aren't in the ring don't realize is that the more he let his hands go is the more he gets hit. So after getting countered but so many times and hit in the face who would really want to let their hands go. People said the same about Dela Hoya and his jab without realizing that these are hall of famers and they don't just stop doing something thats working for them because they want to lose. Mayweathers counters take it away from them and make them not want to do it after he adjusts to them.

            Floyd is that deal and we are very proud of him here in Detroit,Michigan! He is the best period. He can use any method needed to win a fight and that's what make him special and above everyone else.

                could not have said it better.

                Floyd took away his weapons , then his will.

                      All I can think back to was that 'Face Off" with max Kellerman when floyd said with a smirk :

                      "I have a lot of tricks up my sleeve"
