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.Last edited by ADP02; 10-17-2010, 03:30 AM.

After that 2nd round, Mosley was super gassed and posed no problem for Floyd. So what was the big risk after that 2nd round?

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.

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.

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.
