    Your opinion on what happened after round 2 for Floyd/Mosley.

    I was rewatching the fight the other day, and I still have a hard time understanding what happened to Shane after round 2. How do u nearly decapitate your opponent in the second round, then forget how to fight there on after. Yes Floyd made adjustments, but not to the extent where Mosley should have completely stopped throwing punches the way he did.

    What is your take on what happened?

        speed intimidates


        once Floyd recovered, he turned it up a notch... Shane started getting beat to the punch, he shelled up...afraid to get countered because his couldnt match handspeed


        kinda like what happened to Clottey

            Floyd grew a tail and became a fire breathing dragon.

              See how often you throw a punch when it doesn't connect and you get countered. Mid rounds he was getting outboxer and countered, he switched to trying to set up the big punch, Mayweather had him timed.

                All of the blood testing drained Shane. That is the best way to look at it.

                  Not about what happened in round 2. its about what happened before the fight even started.

                  Shane's entire gameplan revolved around that 1-2. He landed it and couldnt finish. He had nothing else to fall back on afterwards so he kept trying to go back to it for the next 10rds with futile results.

                    Actually he didnt. I dont recall him making any attempts at throwing a meaningful power punch after round 2.
