So if a fight ends in a 1 or 2 round KO it's exciting, but if it goes 12 it's boring?

People on here were saying it was boring, yet they consider themselves boxing fans...

Its just that, when you school someone for 12 rnds, you're showing you are obviously better. If you are that much better than your opponent, why play with him? Take him out and end it! Why leave it up to the judges to decide who won?

ok here is my take
I watched it with a house full of mexicans (casual fans) who thought it was boring because it was too easy for floyd.

I liked the fight and if anyone let me down it wasnt Floyd
it was Shane for not showing up

Who's previously knocked shane out?

Winky toyed with shane and he couldn't take him out either, so why should Mayweather have been able to?

I gotta agree. why play with your opponent? just take him out. it was obvious that floyd wanted to take out mosley. its just that he couldn't. not with that punch output.

honestly, I though it was a brillinat performance by floyd, but the uncompetitiveness made for a let down. that's due to mosley trying to box, but also floyd refusing to put together 4-5 punch combos.

I'm not criticizing Floyd, it was a masterful performance. I'm just explaining why some people might have thought it was boring. No one likes to see a decision. Especially if you are obviously that much better than your opponent.

I know what you're getting at, I gotcha...

I'm just saying why would someone expect Floyd, who isn't known for a punching power, to knock out Shane Mosley, when no one has...even guys who were way bigger than Floyd and Mosley...

[Killa Killa]

2 rounds of Hatton/Pacquiao was worth every penny I paid compared to the Floyd/Mosely fight.

Personal preference then...

So, you can't say you speak for every "Casual" fan....

You yourself aren't a casual fan if you are on this forum as well...

So pretty much you would rather se a short brawl than a full boxing match...am I right?

cause winky got a prime mosley. winky wasn't landing big shots on mosley. mostly winky was just landing jabs. also jack mosley didn't threaten to end the fight like ****m did.

mosley would've gotten stopped if floyd just put together more combos. either floyd tKOs him or ****m would've stopped the fight. I truly believe this. the stoppage was there for floyd. all floyd needed to do was put his foot on the accelerator
