Floyd vs. Shane LETS BE REAL

[trainhard_187]

First off yes it was good win for Floyd no doubt but lets consider the facts.

1. Shane gassed out early
2. Shane was an aging fighter at 38 and trained earlier for the Berto fight
3. Shane did not move his head, stick and move etc.
4. Shane threw a lazy jab that had no effect.

These are all facts in Shanes fight against Floyd...

1. Shane shouldve fought smarter rather then blow his load in round 2. How does Floyd get penalized for that? Jermain Taylor gasses all the time and no one takes away from the people who beat him.

2. Shane is and always is in great shape.

3. When has Shane ever moved his head and stick and move? How is that a knock on Floyd?

4. Shane never had a good jab to begin with. Floyd timed up and clowned him. Have you watched Shane fight before May 1st?

Look SSm is my alt fav but how the heck is any of that Floyds Fault?
you fight to win and come in at your best and give your best unless your name is Joshua Clottey

Jermain taylor isn't 38 and he usually doesn't fight elite P4P fighters after an 18 month period of inactivity.

Yeah he's 38 and hasn't fought in 16 months. If that was Pac who beat Shane instead of Mayweather, people would say Pac just beat another flat-footed, past his prime, one dimensional brawler with no head movement. And they would add weight drained there just for the hell of it and say Vernon Forrest ruined him 10 years ago.

Then again people have bashed Floyd to the point of ridiculousness. This was a great performance. Even at 38, Mosley was the top Weltereight and better than anyone on Floyd's resume.

1. thats what happens when you're getting countered all day.

2. Floyd is 33... your point??? He was begging for that ass whoopin.

3. Shane never moved his head and never had great legs to stick and move.

4. Shane never had a jab... Roger clearly stated that before the fight....

Grandpa Shane really showed his age in that fight. Gassing after two rounds, flat-footed, no head movement, no power, no nothing.

You gotta hand to Mayweather, he knows who and when to fight opponents. He fights bums to show how "skilled" he is, and he fights has-beens to show how "great" he is.

"Shane came to the gym twice to ask me to let him fight Manny," Roach says. "I told him no both times, and both times for the same two reasons: First, there isn't enough money there, and second, you're too good a fighter."

DLH threw more punches per round vs Pac than Mosley threw vs Mayweather... But yes, Mosley was at the prime of his life last Saturday and DLH was obviously old and shot...
