For those who question Floyd's heart.....!!

[MindBat]

It still doesn't change the fact that Floyd fought an old Mosley that hadn't fought in a long time.

Floyd got hit with 2 shots in that fight,...... Briggs against Vitali, got hit with more than 2 shots in every round of their fight 12 rounder.

Don't understand the comparison to Vitaly-Briggs except that there is an astronomical difference in the defense equation.

If the heart was to be able to take 2 big shots then Briggs had even more heart to take many shots against a better opponent in front of him than what Floyd had in front of him after that 2nd round. After that 2nd round, Mosley was super gassed and posed no problem for Floyd. So what was the big risk after that 2nd round?

It's not like Floyd said, wow, can I take 12 rounds of non-stop bombs coming my way? That didn't happen as I said, Mosley was fighting with blanks after the 2nd round.


There was plenty of risk for Briggs.

Heart is when you get clobbered and continue to fight back against the odds. Big difference with Briggs who was content with walking forward into infinite right hands and hooks than fighting back to prove he's worthy of a title shot

I never bought that "Mosley was gassed against Floyd" line. He went 12 with Mora. It was more a case of Shane being absolutely dumbfounded and befuddled and not having a backup plan when **** hit the fan.

The odds were heavily in Floyd's favor for that fight. The odds were heavily against Briggs even staying on his feet passed 6 or 7 rounds. Briggs took a beating but didn't give up. I'm not saying that Briggs performed well. Actually he looked bad.

If Floyd was outmatched like Briggs was, they probably would have thrown in the towel.

Mosley did not look good his last 2 fights. Mosley should have looked better against Mora since he at least had fought Floyd a few months earlier. Meaning he was not as inactive as before the Floyd fight.

Go see the Floyd vs Mosley fight again. Mosley's trainer even said that there was something wrong with Mosley. I believe it was after the 7th round. Mosley can still win fights but he now needs to be matched up with fighters with certain styles.

Floyd takes two hard shots and beats a faded Mosley.. and people screamin heart. Dude might have heart, but there are plenty other fighters that have absorbed many more power shots and kept going. Floyd got skill, no doubt. As far as his heart, it's questionable.

Mosley was too nervous in that fight. He was shaking like hell.
Certainly not the same Mosley I've seen in his previous fights.
That's the problem of giving too much respect for your opponent.
Everything you planned and trained for goes down the drain.

Finally someone who thinks like i do.. See i saw the same thing. Compare the mayweather fight to mosley's last 2 fights. Not even the same mosley we are all used to seeing. It almost seemed like after he stunned floyd in the 2nd round. He looked nervous and he didnt wanna let his hands go or even try to engage.

respect.......props
