Did Floyd win your respect in round 2 against Mosley

[ADP02]

Mosley was so gassed out after that it was game over after that .... hope we don't see the same with Canelo getting gassed out in his next fight.

Because he was badly stunned by the only clean punch Shane landed all fight then held on to Shane like he was his wife?

Imagine a prime Mosley, juiced up as he was against Oscar, if he would have buckled Mayweather like that closer to his prime he would've taken Mayweather into deeper water.

IF Canelo lands clean on Floyd, I see Floyd wobbling. He isn't used to taking flush shots, and Canelo has the speed, accuracy, power and combination punching to test him. He just lacks that consistent energy and stamina otherwise I'd edge towards Canelo to win.

I'm lost. Why are you mentioning Margarito? Second, there are no excuses as to why Shane lost to Floyd-none!

Lol you misunderstood my post.


Here goes.

You mentioned something about what elite fighters on Floyd's level he's stopped and I said if you're a Floyd hater, you'd count Margarito (You know the guys...the ones who claim Marg would have taken the "duckin" Floyd's soul).

Then I said Shane gassing could he attributed to over training as he was never known to fatigue to that extent. Hell its rare to see anyone get that tired so he could have both over trained and just been plain old. Being old isn't an excuse. It's real. The Mora fight practically confirmed it (incase his actual age didnt >__> )

Floyd hasnt ever Beaten A prime hall of famer.
Most his fights are vs b minus level and c level fighters.
Part time fighters, fighters off layoffs and
Hand picked. Fighters not at their best weight.
Washed up , never was , was never gonna be 's.
Floy isba great looking talent. But a talent that never got tested
Due to supposed retirements , ducks, dodges and some avoiding
And lies .

The OP gotta stop hyping up floyd jr to more then he really is.
He got paid and then held boxing hostage.
Fights the ghost , ortiz and baldomirs. And those are the guys that were
At their peaks. But so limited.
Most good fighters woul be undefeated if they kept fighting slow flat footed fighters. And not faster slicker fighters

I"ll admit....I thought Floyd was soft but too skilled to ever have that so called
flaw exposed....I found out that dude got some bottle(as the Brits say)

Shane is My 2nd all time fav Fighter right behind B.Hop so I had Shane picked to win by KO....I felt like Shane was gonna bring the b!tch up outta the boy...but Floyd proved to be THEE man and erased any doubts I had regarding his toughness....dude came up BIG TIME in my book....one of the few fighters I have the utmost respect for.....that's what that round did to my opinion of Money May.....bull is a special breed!!!

[baya]

like the poster above me ... always knew that floyd was overly skilled and tough in there but since defensively he is a master, i'd never seen him have to take a huge punch, until that mosley right in the 2nd round.

he took it like a man, cleared the cobwebs and then proceeded to pound on mosley something vicious.

so simply, yes, he took a devastating right hand and came back to dole out a one-sided beating; won my respect.

[ManOfVictory]

he gained respect when he beat Corrales. but lost it when he lost to castillo.

hindsight is a great thing, it lets you delude those ignorant enough to buy into your diatribes.
