Why do people keep saying mosley nearly knocked out floyd??

[krispy kreme]

What big mistake was that OSIRIS?

I don't know if he referring to Floyd standing in close.

I don't know because even though these guys are professionals, sometimes I wonder about them.

This is what I don't understand. Neither man has ever been unprofessional...

I honestly feel I can talk boxing with you bro, so I won't throw any b.s. out there to rile you up

with that said. That jab to the body was causing Floyd to drop his shoulder and leaving him open to Shane's overhand right. I counted 3-4 more times that Shane could have landed it but didn't (Floyd was open to it). What Floyd did, and this is the mistake I was talking about, was he rolled down with Shanes Jab. When rising back up he was even more open to a hook (left one instead) but Shane didn't jump on it.

He did however see the adjustment Shane made when Floyd threw the jab to the body, and Floyd kinda copied it. The correct adjustment was to dip your elbows and use those to block those jabs to the body, a move Floyd didn't do for a few rounds after he was hurt.

This is just one of the many things I spotted. I am no Bert Sugar by any means or some boxing guru, but I always try to pay attention to why things happen the way they do and what boxers do to adjust to thing in the ring. Hey but what do I know.....accordinging to Floyd fans I don't know **** about boxing...

He didnt even fall..dont you have to fall first????

Then he came back before the round was even over and was landing clean blows

You even ask Mosley and he will say that he was "this" close from doing it in the second round. Watch the post fight reaction from Mosley himself.

naah it was Floyd first adjustment to Shane's jab to the body. Floyd dip down with it, when he should have just used his elbows to pick it off. I notice that he was looking for Shane to come with a hook which is why Floyd raised his elbow in anticipation, but if Shane was smart he could have time Floyd with a left hook or even and uppercut when Floyd was raising up.

This is what I don't understand. Neither man has ever been unprofessional...

What I mean by this comment is that even though these guys are pros and the best of the best, I still can't see how they make the mistakes they make (even though they been in the game for years). That goes for not only boxers, but all pro athletes in general. I swear I get head aches watching the bone head mistakes NFL players make when I watch games and don't even get me started on the NBA. Again I'm no guru but some of this stuff seems like common sense, at least to me, but I digress.

Listen man, we all know Mayweather kicked Shane's ass bu Mosley ROCKED Floyd's jaw piece and he had 2 hold on 2 his arm so his ass wouldn't hit the floor. Just speaking the truth. Its nothing though because like you said, he came back in that same round and got his shots off.

Okay, thanks for clarification.

These guys are only human, every fighter and athlete is flawed. It's easy for us to look at fights 2-3 times or more and point out the mistakes, but it's another thing when you are in the ring in front of your opponent in real-time.

Right. This is what got him hurt. The first shot that landed flush in round 2 was all set up by Shane's flicking jab. He dropped his left shoulder and I spotted that myself. Also, we saw Shane working on that during the 24/7 (overhand right). But you are right, he usually keeps his left shoulder high to protect his chin when an opponent throws a right hand. As the fight went on, he understood his mistake and actually keep his left shoulder high when Shane threw the overhand right, then countered Shane with a right hand of his own. Wish I could find the gifs of what I'm talking about.

Right, he picked it up.
