I think you got a little too excited over watching that video. It is very exciting to watch, but that is a faded De La Hoya. He always fades late in the fight. Pac and May will always be better. And also, I think there's reason to believe Mosley was on PED's back then, but can't remember if it was during this time.

No shame in losing to that Mosley. He was tremendous. I dont think many beat that Shane...none of the current era thats for sure... Shane was faster than both and probably hit harder... Does anyone really in their heart of hearts believe Pac would win a single exchange against that Mosley? Floyd wouldnt have survived the 2nd...Comment

IDK about Pac but Floyd is just a very bad matchup for Shane. Maybe at LW before Floyd grew into the weight but if Floyd grows into any weight class then he's just better than Shane against others and head to head. I always tell people to watch the Wise fight. Just watch the first couple of minutes right here. This is the very fight before the Oscar fight. Just look at Shane's style. Its just like Senior said. He's too jittery. Too many wasted movements. Floyd would always time that and eat it up.

Mosley's a brawler. He was never slick, or smart, or hard to hit. I'm not saying Pac destroys him, but I would feel good picking Pac in that fight. To act like Mosley was ever as good a fighter as prime Pac or Mayweather is vastly overrating him.Comment

Mosley wasn't slick. Oscar won exchanges. Far lesser fighters than Pac won exchanges. Pac throws just as fast and is very unpredictable in the middle of a firefight.
