    He went wild and Floyd clowned him. He wasted alot of energy and was winded and he probably thought like most did that Floyd would lay back and box for the 3rd round. BUT.....

    WRONG.

    He came out and pressured Shane which made Shane have to play defense and he never caught his breath.

    Floyd owned him.

      Why do ppl keep saying he gassed? He looked tight yeah but still had plenty of energy even at the end of the fight bouncing around all night like that.

      It seems whenever a few posters suggest that something happened to explain why someone lost everyone just goes along with it.

      He did not gas, he stopped throwing because he was worried about the counter and loading up looking for the opportunity to land the big shot but by then Floyd had adjusted and it was not available.

      Floyd was just better end of story.

        Please go over the fight again. There was something definitely wrong with Mosley. After round 7, Mosley's trainer stated that Mosley appeared to be fading. During that same sequence, Mosley kept requesting what I thought was for a "cool wet towel".

        It's true that the way the fight went (the pace of the fight), Mosley should not have been gassed but he appeared to be stuck in sparring mode. The way Mosley fought those rounds, Floyd didn't even require his A game defensively. That is, it appeared that Mosley just didn't have it in him that night to up the tempo.
