When Mosley caught Floyd with those power shots in round 2, did you expect a KO?

    Thats what happens when Age creeps up on you.

      I bet £500 on Mayweather by UD.

      When he took them punches, I didn't flinch or jump about because it was Mayweather and knew he was 100% competent enough to recover asap.

          When he got caught with the 1st big right I was like woah, but then the 2nd I thought him getting knocked down was a high possibility.

          I weren't sure about a straight KO, but I thought Mayweather would go down when I saw him kind of rock back an forth when he tried to walk toward Shane with the high guard.

          Then at the end of the round Mayweather looked like he was composed and won the next round well I had it in the back of my mind that Mosley could land that bomb again and thought Floyd might box and move more so I was surprised that he decided to continue to stay in front of Mosley.

            I'd like to believe everyone, including Mayweather fans, were on the edge of their seats when Floyd got clocked.

            Whether people believed he would recover or not is upon what they want to say today, but as everything was unfolding, I imagine the hearts of most Mayweather fans literally about to pop out their chests lol. I witnessed it myself where I was watching the fight.

                  I knew coming into the fight that Floyd would get hit with Mosleys big right hand.
                  I even spoke to Roger Mayweather on some chat about it and he said that mosley won't hit what his eyes can't see.

                  So when Mosley landed the first right hand it shocked the **** out of me.
                  The second right hand I almost **** my pants. I thought oh boy Floyd shouldn't of took this fight with such a big puncher. He is in trouble now.

                  And then it happened. Mayweather took the shots like a champ and then started walking Shane down. That shocked me the most because I'm use to Mayweather using his legs against bigger fighters.

                  Floyd showed me the heart of a champion that night.

                      you're crazy if you think roy jones is more skilled than floyd.......roy was mostly talent and athletic ability than real technical skill. jmm is more technically skilled than rjj tbh.
