The jab kept Shane at bay during most of the 4 fights.

    Mosley is definetly on the decline, but he is still an awesome fighter. You guys don't give him props, but you will when he knocks Zab Judah out!
    I understand where you are coming from on this one. I think Judah gets beaten VERY easily by Shane. Despite his speed Judah does come forward and has defense problems. I think Shane has the better chin and would be able to catch Mr Judah on the counter and possibly do him in inside 5 rounds!

        No, but if Shane keeps winning at welterweight they`ll have to fight....hopefully sometime next year!

              he hasnt slowed down , he is just lacking one punch KO power .

              at 135 he was so big he could overpower and outstrenght anybody , plus he had his speed . so he KO ed a lot of guys , but he never had real one punch power .

              when he stepped up in weight the bigger guys at the elite level have never been hurt by his power . he is an average sized fighter at 147 with no power , and he is tryin to KO bigger guys with one punch .

              he should go back to SPEED and COMBOS , but he wants to hurt not to box . he still has it , he should change his state of mind , and go back with goosen , who trained him well before winky2

                I'd pick Shane to beat Zab too. A KO would be awesome, but there is no way Zab outboxes Shane.

                  I think Shane could outbox him. He's just as fast, and just as skilled, if not more skilled. Zab's restless when He fights, he doesn't seem like a natural, he's just a pretender...a copycat.

                  IMO, Zab would get caught in the early rounds (just like against Zoo), and would get KO'd by Sugar Shane.

                    Guys, Shane was offered the Zab fight and declined. He's trying to get his boxing legs under him. We know he was steroids up to the 2nd Oscar bout. What we don't know is when be began using steroids. I like Shane, but I can't say I like the way his career has gone.

                      One of the big problems with Mosley in my opinion is that there is no more mystery around him. Hes been beaten 4 times by guys who both had the same game plan pretty much. Just stick a jab in his face all night long and he doesnt know what to do with it.
