    Thats why Floyd should fight fighters in their prime and not just fighters who had a good performance in their last fight like SSM did against Margarito. If Floyd is going to fight these over the hill fighters he has to dominate from start to finish no hiccups or mistakes.
    Oh god.....not you......please......just.....no.......

    Manfredy, Corrales, C. Hernandez, Chavez, Castillo, Judah, Hatton, and Ortiz, all in their primes.

    G. Hernandez, Vargas, Gatti, Marquez, Cotto, past their primes-still good.

    Mosley and Oscar, past their primes.

    You just never respond to Floyd topics, or anything on here for that matter. It's so clear what your intentions, it's f**king pathetic.

      Technically superior certainly, as far as natural ability it's pretty close. who hit harder? Who was faster? Who was smarter? Who was stronger?

      Floyd was markedly bullied around by Castillo badly at the lower weight. Shane was even bigger than Jose. 155 on fight night sometimes.

          yeah I am aware of Winky vs Floyd almost happening

            can't say with any certainty who would win but there is no doubt that the mosley floyd fought is about half of what he once was. mosley was never as good after the first vernon forrest fight.

              How about he was never as good as people thought he was before the first Forrest fight~

                It's cause he never should have moved up after Forrest. He should have stayed put or moved to 140. Mosley would have fcked Mayorga up awfully.

                  Mayweather was by far smarter than Shane Mosley. That's not even arguable.

                  Probably faster as well.

                  Shane was stronger and punched harder but Mayweather was far far far smarter.
