    He was actually 33 if you want to use "facts."

      This type fight makes me sad to watch I have no interest in watching old legends get beat up by new ones.
      It's not that I dont agree with you cause I do believe that if he comes out with the pat jab, that he's gonna get steamrolled. But I also think he's got a lil more in the well than most are giving him credit for. But I agree with you an Bruhnlaw. I dont wanna see Shane get P'Da Rolled. The Floyd fight was enough. Give him to Berto, so that Berto can gain the experiance of fighting a full-blown legend.

              I expect it to. I think Mosley was washed up when Floyd fought him, but he was considered the Champion at 147 and for that Floyd deserves credit. I now feel that Mosley is 6 months more washed up and an irrelevant fight for an elite fighter.

              My apologies, I missed his birthday announcement.

                If a poor form of Mayorga can grapple his way into a close fight with Mosley, what is he going to do against a young lion Berto that is also adept at grappling~

                  Jesus... OK. Check this out. We'll go back one fight for each of them.

                  Please excuse me while I point out that you're grasping at straws here.

                  Mosley kicking the crap out of Margarito > Mosley looking like crap against Mora.

                  Let's go back 2 fights now...

                  Mosley looking like crap against Mayorga (before WINNING), then kicking the crap out of Margarito > Getting his ass kicked by Mayweather, and looking like crap against Mora (fighting to a draw).

                    Im not grasping at straws because Ive admitted the Mayweather win to be considerably better from the beginning. I simply pointed out your bias. I had no argument.

                      There was no bias (only a little common sense), as I just showed you. I honestly had no idea everything had to be broken down as simple as this.
