Shane's near KO of Floyd in RD2...

[arraamis]

Floyd survived because he Held for his life, Thats not an adjustmnet, thats instinct.

Lol, what a joke, who comes up with this stuff?

Please show me where he "holds on for dear life"

Floyd locks Shanes arm for about two seconds and from there no hold lasted more than 2seconds for the rest of the round.

Floyd hardly gets hit, and when he does get hit, people give him more praise than he deserves, just because he didn't go down? Wasn't Margarito eating shots like that round after round and not budging until late into the fight?

SSM wasn't stopping anyone within two rounds at that time of his career, so why FLoyd is giving special praise is anyones guess.?

Mostly, the feedback in Floyd's favor is just countering obvious exaggerations and fabrications.

For example: Floyd got clipped good by two great shots delivered from Mosley .... He didn't get "Near KO'ed" and he obviously didn't "hold excessively" when recovering.

Essentially much ado about nothing ..........

floyd's "adjustment" was more to do with shane being 40 yrs old. Had shane been 3-4 yrs younger (when floyd was ducking him), floyd would not have seen the 3rd round that night.

Mosley ducked Floyd twice. Floyd returned the favor and said "F you, when I wanted to fight you, you said no twice". Once because of a toothache and the second time was that he had to go on vacation. No one really cares if these fighters Floyd is accused of ducking, actually ducked him in their prime. It's all about Floyd and who he doesn't fight, not who doesn't want to fight him.

Those short right uppercuts to the body after getting hurt contributed a lot to Mayweather dominating, it's that same punch that had Maidana going for the knee in case many didn't notice.

Sugar Shane was the consensus P4P number 3 fighter in the world.


Floyd made him age overnight.

Poor Floyd fans don't know what's up. Mosley was rated due to what he did in a fight 16 months earlier and never fought until he faced Floyd.

At least Floyd knows what's up as he said for his game plan, he will take into account that Mosley is now OLD.

Quite possibly because he got caught, then dominated the fight, and not "got caught repeatedly on his way to getting knocked the fuck out".

Let's all take a step back and praise Margarito for being a punching bag, and not getting KTFO until late.

2 entirely different scenarios. Not sure how you're trying to compare the two.

Margarito eats shots round after round. Praise

Floyd eats a couple shots and dominates. He gets too much praise for not getting hit.

[young_robbed]

People still overreact to this ****? Yeah, Shane caught Floyd with 2 big punches, he hurt him badly, but Floyd wasn't even close to getting knocked out. No way.

[check hook]

He really only got caught with ONE big shot. The first shot got him flush on the chin. He tied Mosley up, but he wasn't that hurt. It got his attention, but it also showed his chin is solid (as has been shown in the past). He didn't buckle at all. The second shot is the one that had him on ***** street for a second. Mosley hit him with a counter he didn't see over the top of his own counter and it hit him on the temple. He recovered quickly considering it's the type of shot that can turn a fighters legs to jelly for the entirety of the fight.

But Floyd is essinetially having his arse kissed cos he didn't go down? SSM has hit many people in the first round with those punches and they didn't go down also so why praise Floyd?

Why shouldn't Floyd dominate from then on? He only took a couple of punches, so what? Why would people expect Floyd not to dominate SSM just cos he took a couple of punches is the strange question?
