what was with Mosley's obsession with touching gloves all the time?

    what happened in that sequence was that floyd got nasty and hit shane when the ref said break when their arms were locked up

    shane got pissed and started wrestling thats when the ref broke em

    then they touched gloves and started jawing and floyd smacked em

    no idea why roidsly thought he could talk in a fight

        I don't blame Floyd.

        In round 2 when Mosley had the Momentum he wasn't worrying about touching no gloves, he was going for the gusto.

        Same thing with that situation, he wants to talk know because he's getting his ass taxed, other wise he's trying to knock your head off.

          This I agree.

          If you notice he only does it when he starts to LOSE the fight, other wise if he's winning, the only thing he is doing is throwing punches.

            I doubt it had anything to do with buying time or sympathy. I noticed he did a lot of glove touching in the fight against Margarito, and he dominated that fight. It's probably just sportsmanship.

              Mosely is just too nice. In both fights it seemed after awhile he was just going through the motion rather than actually trying to win. Granted he wasn't going to win either fight but it might have been a little more competitive.

                    #1 Rule in boxing... Protect yourself at all times! Cheap shot doe! I'm sure you were fine with the Ortiz head butt though...
