Mosely was an old man in there, he needed a cane lol Too old, no stamina mouth already opened in the 4th round. He couldn't keep up, he had no stamina. He is just to old for an almost 39 year old fighter. It just shows people where fooled to believing he still has it.
As Larry Merchant pointed out in an interview, fighters who are past there prime will still create the illusion that they are good when faced with a slow fighter (Margarito), But if faced with a fast younger fighter the reality takes over and it usually shows the real picture that past there prime fighters can't compete with someone faster.
That said, he looked sensational in the Margarito fight coz maybe there is a strong possibility he juiced up that time as well, coz that's what a self confessed juicer will do if his an old boxer who wants to compete in the highest level.
But yup Floyd didn't allow him to juice up, (which is really Mosely's only chance if the fight goes to the distance with Floyd) But without the help of Peds, we saw what he really is. an old Prune with power.
We all know Power is the last one that goes out from an old fighter, that's why he still caught floyd with a devastating right. It's just that he was too slow to compete with Floyd's youth.
If it was a young primed mosely who fought Floyd. Floyd would have his 2nd loss already ( castillo his first loss ). Mosely would have finished him of for sure. He just wasn't able to finish him off coz lets face it speed vs speed, a younger fighter will most likely have more to offer.
An old prune like Mosely was able to land a hard right on a supposedly fast Mayweather. What more if it was a fast prime Mosely in there?
A younger Mosely with power would have followed through with that 2nd round performance.
Watching the Hbo ppv, Emanuel steward noticed Mosely had to use the Gloves mayweather chose for him before the start of the fight.
Plus the fact that Mosely wasn't even been able to break in his new Grant gloves(pillow Gloves, the one with more padding in the knuckles were boxers like floyd use coz of his brittle hands) during training is a bad thing going to a fight.
A fighter should be using his choice of gloves as a tennis player or a golfer should be using their choice of racket or golf set, but agian mayweather who is so good at getting all the advantage for him made Mosely wear Grant gloves. Which we know damn well isn't his gloves of choice.
Imagine if it was the punchers gloves Cleto Reyes ( punchers gloves/fighters gloves ) that caught mayweather head with that big right Mosely threw.
Yup, it could have been lights out mayweather. we all know Mosely is a deadly finisher in his prime.
But we also know mayweather won't fight if the advantages is stacked against him right?
He always seems to get the advantage to all fighters.
In this fight, he made mosely use his choice of gloves, allowed him to fight him @ almost 39 years of age, made him draw blood even if he has taken the same blood test but damn his younger right and he is still no prune like Mosely who is almost 39 years old, surely he gets more affected losing blood than him..
So imagine that, everything was stalked up against shane and shane almost knocked him out on the 2nd.
First of all you guys say Mosely ain't a prune coz he is still good for a almost 39 year old fighting May, but now that Floyd is about to retire for 2 years you *****s say he won't be fast anymore he won't be in his prime anymore, and he won't be the same fighter anymore if he comesback @ 34years of age, he will be eaten by the younger lions if he comes back..
32+2years off = 34 (if Mayweather takes a 2 year off and comes back)
Mosely fought @ age 38 almost 39 and you guys think he is still good?
So it doesn't work for Mosely for the fact that he is way way older for a boxer competing in the highest level @ age 38?
It's not hard to believe a prime shane would have finished the job for sure when he threw that big right on the 2nd round with a Cleto Reyes gloves with less padding in the knuckle area. It should have been a different story.
It just means Mosely prime > Mayweather prime.
Mosely is a gassed out prune who was after his last big payday.
Mosely prime vs Mayweather prime. Mosely will knock him out cold for sure and Floyd won't even have a chance to get up.
Imagine: Mayweather was holding on for dear life. If mayweather weren't holding Mosely that would have been his first real Knock down for sure.
Watch it guys, he was holding mosely like his life depended on him.
Without his holding he should have been knocked down. And a prime Mosely would have demolished him right after that for sure!
Prime vs Prime
In history books, when they are talked about.. They will be compared if they ever fought prime vs prime. We know the answer to that.
That a prime Mosely would have finished off Floyd after that sensational big right he did in the second round of there fight.
It is not hard to believe that a prime Mosely would have finished Floyd in the 2nd round of their recent fight.
Prime Mosely all day
Note: if you want to comment and dispute my thoughts about this post. Give an explanation on why a Prime Mosely would not have finished the job if it was a prime Mosely who caught may with that beautiful right on the 2nd round of their recent fight.
Don't post stuff that Mosely duct Floyd before etc. This is about what could have happened if it was a prime Mosely, who was in the ring on their recent fight, and he caught Floyd with that devastating right on the 2nd. Would he have finished off Floyd?
Answer: Yes definitely!
