How Great is Floyd if his best win came against a 39 year old?

[The Tase]

i would favor castillo,hernandez over barrera or morales if they ever fought,

its not a argument.

barerra, morales, & marquez >>>>>>>>>>>>>> castillo, hernandez, & corrales.


in every way. stop arguing a lost cause. this is not debatable.

[MuckMuck]

the cotto that lost to margarito and looked like he was the loser against clottey

So? Manny was knocked out twice early in his career, got beat by Morales, and went to war twice against Marquez. But he still managed to kick Cotto's ass and treat him like a cheap whore.

LOL. I still can;t get over the fact that Mayweather ran away from the sport cause his division was too packed. Comes back two years later after every fought each other and picks on a 38 year old that hadn't fought in a year and a half. LOL.

Floyd didnt win by dancing around the ring and using his fresher legs by making himself a difficult target. He stayed in front of Mosley all night, inviting him to fightand attack.

But after 3 rounds Mosley couldnt do ****, because every time he tried he was getting countered to death. He tries a jab, he gets a right hand. He tries the left hook, he gets a jab or a left in return. He tries a right hand, he punches air, he tries to rush, he gets uppercuts in the body.

After all of that Mosley was unsure of what to do, was undercommitting and jibberish trying to faint and faint to make Floyd open himself. He didnt find any openings. Floyd was inviting him to hit, opening up lowering his left hand and telling him...we are here to fight.

If mosley had more courage and kept moving forward like Corrales he would be KTFO like Corrales

mosley didnt throw because he was 39. he was cooked after the 4th round. the 1 year & 5 month layoff didnt help either.

Go see joe calzaghe vs roy jones.

roy knocks down calzaghe does well the first couple of rounds after that everything stopped. he went into a defensive shell & layed on the ropes. he was 40.

go see joe calzaghe vs bernard hopkins.

hop knocks down joe. gives a good fight the first half of the fight, the second half he is relegated to faking injuries. everything slowed down. he was 43.

go see oscar vs pac

oscar was throwing punches in the first couple of rounds. after that defensive shell & he was done. he was 35.


shane is 39 & the same exact thing happened like the other examples i stated above. HE COULDNT PULL THE TRIGGER. That is the hall mark sign of an aging fighter. shane was made to look better than he actually is by margarito. who was physically & mentally show because of the cotto fight & getting caught with handwraps.

one fight before that, shane was struggling with a shot mayorga. that was the real shane & this fight with floyd proves that. there's a reason why he was a 4-1 underdog.

nobody who knows boxing thought he had a shot.

see all those fights, the winner always used his legs to win (well Pac also drained oscar, but still he was in and out, in and out and around). This fight is all different. He showed his superior skills by staying there in front of him and beating him constantly to the punch.

so do you just want to ignore the fact that shane was gassed by the 4th round & the fact that he's 39 years old & was off for a year & 5 months?

i showed you examples & explained myself.


did you not see casamayor vs santa cruz? Look at all the examples i showed you. there is a common denominator in all of them. They were all 35 & up. I will get proven right when shane doesnt win anymore fights vs elite competition or retires.


only way im wrong is if shane continues fighting & beats elite competition.


Which one do you think is more likely?



i thought so.

You better stop living on the past dude.

because those were his best fights.

I think some are overlooking why Mosley was gassed by the fourth round. I believe Mosley went into the fight with his mentality pitted towards knocking Mayweather out. I think he focused so much energy on this in the earlier rounds, and by the time he found out it wasn't going to be as easy as he thought, he had used up quite a bit of energy.

Also, it seemed as though he hadn't prepared for Mayweather coming at him so much, and rather than trying to fight he was trying to think.

That's just my thoughts but I'm no boxing expert.

he's 39. hasnt fought in 1 year & 5 months.

I layed out similar examples of this.
