MAYWEATHER-MOSLEY Second Round....What REALLY Happened?

[brick wall]

From what I remember, Shane kept trying all the way through in the Mora fight.

and what do you remember exactly? he kept trying what?

because floyd is a defensive fighter who likes to maintain a safe distance from his opponents. but against shane, floyd was there all night in front of him at a punch-length distance. it's not like shane chased floyd around the ring like baldomir did. in fact it was floyd who was backing up shane so there's no excuse for shane not to punch back.

i wouldn't have been disappointed if i saw shane at least tried and swinging wildly at floyd and grossly missed but he never tried to fight back. he simply quit. in his prime he got figured out by forrest and absorbed the worst beating of his career but he was fighting hard till the very last round. same thing with his fights against winky.

look i'm not just looking at how good floyd was in that fight like how you *****s love to jerk up on. floyd was good as expected. i'm also looking at how bad shane was. and i don't think it was just because of what floyd did to him. there's something missing in shane's game that night. he no longer have it. but don't you worry...i'm not taking anything away from floyd's victory. i'm not adding anything special to that win either...so don't you tell me about your conclusion because i simply don't care.

That is the same damn Shane Ive seen since he moved to WW. He has always been jerky and tenative. The only difference was he fought the best of the best. Gettin punched in the face changes everybody's effectiveness. Dont get upset lil fella.

i didn't really expect anything sensible from you but i still tried to make a conversation. i should have just ignored you...anyway that's what i'm gonna do that after this post.

Great thread topic.

That video from Mr.Opal sums it up in a nutshell for me.

Mosley was tired during round 2, while Mayweather was rocked. Im sure Mayweather made some adjustments that certainly helped him dominate the rest of the fight, but Mosley was (amazingly) already gassed after that one attack.

he showed his lack of stamina again in his next fight, where he threw a disgustingly low amount of punches.

it was sad seeing Mosley doing an amateurish hand twirl and then throw a forced wild shot.

Its all on film. When you get a chance check it out. The better the competition the more he jumps and jerks. He shined aginst willing victims. Re-watching his fights with DLh I was less impressed now than I was then.

yes that's what happened but how does that divert from that fact that he gave up in the fight?
