Thanks for sharing and makin a good point and perspective.
So what youre saying is that Shane's mental state and bodylanguage made him look more tired than he actually would or should have been at that point??
maybe i could actually go with thatComment

am a fan of both pac and floyd but damn bros,you have never said a good word of floyd..all you say regarding floyd is negative and low..anyone would think that you could beat floyd and that he aint no 5 division world champ...pac is not everything you know..you can appreciate other talents...BREATH SON...lol
I have plenty of positive things to say about Floyd. here's an example from earlier today:

Yes , mentally Shane was beaten from the get go especially after his big run in the 2nd was over and had no effect , he said he was tight and tense thats mind stuff , Floyd owned him in a beat down and Shane didnt know what to do with Floyd so his body just fell in a hole . people underestimate mental domination and its effects on the body .Comment

It doesn't matter how many years you have been fighting 12 rounders, when you get older your stamina diminishes. Obviously Roy doesn't have half the stamina he used to have, he never even got winded before. Now it's a different story, he has to take breaks every round. Shane is 38 years old and doesn't have the stamina he had 3 years ago. Regardless, it was an amazing performance by Mayweather.Comment

while i'm not going to say shane's age had NO affect on his performance, i will say, it wasn't a big enough factor to excuse his performance, as it is being used here.
fact is, watch shane's fights...he always looks gassed out mid-fight, then gets a "second wind" towards the latter stages of the bout. mayweather even pointed out the fact that shane "gases out" in an interview following the weigh-in.
bottom line is, he definitely WASN'T tired after only 2 rounds....he hurt mayweather, and decided to hold back, load up, and look for an opening to land a KO shot. if dudes go back and watch the fight, you can hear naazim tell shane to fight, and quit "looking for the perfect shot, there is none." but that's what he did, and while he was doing so, he was taking shots from mayweather. by round 5, the fight was over, but it wasn't b/c shane was tired. it was b/c the dude only fights ONE way, and when he hurts you, he expects to finish you. if he can't, he can't make any adjustments, and for an opponent as smart as mayweather, once you figure out what shane is trying to do, he is realtively easy to beat. and floyd made it look that way. enough with the excuses already.Comment

He didn't gas out, just got confused and was tight in there and didn't know what and when to throw.Comment
