            You should throw a punch at one of Floyd's bodyguards.

                Ok we know floyd is in great shape, and trained everyday when he had his layoff, not retirement.
                But now its time for him to prove himself the best by fighting great fighters. Not picking and choosing guys like SSM.

                    Ahahaha! Hes can't win in your eyes.

                    Floyd picked and chose the same guy Roach refused to let Manny fight, what a cherrypicker Floyd is!

                      Steve Forbes and Ishe Smith were the sparring partners. What you see on 24/7 is just for the cameras. Floyd works ****** in the gym.....most times he stays in shape in between fights anyway. The plan was to not move around much this fight, to show the world he don't have to run and potshot if he don't want too. Believe me the footwork is still there. The only mistake Floyd made in the fight was to try and out jab Shane to the body. That's where the over have right counter came from, when Floyd throw the jab to the his shoulder drops and exposes his chin. Usually that is ok because no one has the reach to touch him there...Mosley so happen to have that advantage during that sequence. Once Floyd just settled for going to the body during clinching situations then took away the straight right hand....the fight was over. Floyd took that **** on the chin also!
                      Actually Mayweather was caught by the 1st right hand because Mosley set it up beautifully with his strong jabs to the body starting from the very beginning of the 1st round. It's ironic because it's a strategy that Mayweather uses himself. If you recall, he just barely missed landing the exact same punch earlier in the fight during the sequence where he lossed his balance and fell to the ground. Mosley's second right hand was a result of perfect timing. He perfectly timed Mayweather's left hook and came over the top with an overhand right to the ear-temple area.

                      The amazing part in all of this to me is how quickly Mayweather recovered from being hurt(twice) and then was able to make the necessary adjustments. Mosley continued to try and jab to the body in effort to set up the right hand, but after the 2 right hands in the 2nd round Mayweather adjusted and just clocked him with counter straight right hands and left hooks for the rest of the fight. Some people are saying that Mosley was gassed or that he got old overnight, and that's BS. Sure he was breathing hard, but he wasn't sleepwalking out there. He was trying his butt off, he just couldn't do anything. Nothining he tried worked after the 2nd round. That takes on you mentally and emotionally, and that obviously can effect how you look physically. Once he failed to finish Mayweather off in the 2nd round, I believe that Mosley himself knew that the fight was basically over.
