    Floyd ate that straight right because of a defensive mistake

    Yall seen the gif posted. Look at how Floyd doesn't react at all after the first shot Mosley throws low. He doesn't roll his shoulder to the left or motion with his head in any way to get away from the right coming immediately after it.

    Conclusion: He wasn't expecting it.

    He didn't get hit from being too slow or needing to get warmed up in the fight to time Sugar. Shane just snuck a crafty 1-2 in there that Jr. didn't anticipate. You could say that's more to do with Shane, but with Floyd's level of aptitude for D, he should've been embarrassed to get caught like that. He was lax on the guard there.

      he also had his left low larry mentioned it earlier, but he saw the punch coming you can tell looking at the gif imagine if he didn't see it coming the damage it could have done.

          It happens. He was barely hit from the 3rd round on.

            Left was low because he was in the shoulder roll form.

            He really didn't know it was coming. He got his right up at the last moments, but it was almost a blind shot.

              He gets caught with ONE punch and you make it seem like he lost the fight. Thats pathetic. Im not even a Floyd fan but he's not a machine. People make mistakes

                Quite the contrary. I'm highlighting how avoidable the shot was if he was looser there.

                  from looking at that gif time and time again he was sorta squared up protecting himself from the body punch so it was hard to roll it.

                  but i think he saw it i really do which is why he stayed on his feet just long enough to grab's mosley arm.
