Comments Thread For: Mayweather on Canelo: No Vacant Belt, Old Mosley For Me

[TheWinners]

And yeah that bs about Mosley coming off his best win is nonsense. He was over the hill as well. The Mosely Mayweather fought and the one Canelo fought were not light years apart if any. And I believe Mosley trained harder for the Mayweather fight. Don't think he really was into the Canelo fight as deep.

The fight Floyd was referring to was the margarito win and it was a big win for Mosley cause Floyd didn't want any part of margarito but I do agree with you a out when he fought Canelo he definitely wasn't in to it and needless to say ellerbe is right as well Canelo will be in for a rude awakening come Saturday night.

he did fight him after one of his most impressive wins though

Like 16 months later and it was against a guy that just got caught with bricks in his hands and fought brickless and knowing he was in big trouble JUST BEFORE THE FIGHT!

...... that plus age is not a good combination.

i get it, but again thats not mosely's fault, he's a professional! fighters always come into fights with personal problems legal issues and other things effecting them **** mayweather fought cotto knowing he had to turn his self in a week later, that being said i still dont see what he could have done differently mosely is great against fighters like that

Yeah but Floyd was trying to belittle Canelo's win based on Mosley's age......he should have thought that one through a little better first.

Mayweather head and hills over Trout? Let's not give too much credit to Canelo for the Trout win. And lets not take any away. What I mean is that was a pretty competitive fight. Though Canelo clearly won, wasnt by much. After the knockdown Trout fought better. And had Canelo not known he was clearly ahead on the scorecards he wouldnt have disengaged in the later rounds and actually took more chances. On the flipside lets give Canelo his due respect. Everyone including me thought Trout would win. And Canelo impressed me with his boxing and defense. After this fight I knew he was ready for Mayweather period.

good post, I absolutely agree!

Not saying it's Mosley's fault ..... I'm saying that the Mosley that Floyd fought was not prime time Mosley. Mosley was inactive for 16 months and OLD.

Just before the fight, Floyd was interviewed and said "My game plan will take into account that Mosley is OLD!"
