i still think floyd mosley second round is strange

[Ringlife]

I remember that round, Mayweather got buzzed and held on to Mosley with his left hand and didn't let go until the ref stepped in. He did the smart thing even when he was badly hurt until he got his legs back and started firing back.

Al Haymon slipped Mosley a check in the locker room after the fight for not ruining his money maker.

[Showtime..]

Mosley spent his load man, you can use up a ton of energy in a short period of time. Also Floyd has a kung fu grip, you forgot to mention he was able to hold onto Mosley elbow forcing Mosley to waste energy trying to yank his arms out.

Floyd has an iron chin as well, and fast recovery. Pacquiao has a glass chin and bad recovery. If you look at these two boxers Pac gets dropped easy and hurt bad, Floyd worst he ever been hurt is his knees buckling twice back to back, but he didn't go down once, that shows how good his chin and recovery is.

If that were someone like Kirkland or Pacquiao they would be sleeping on the canvas.

Yes! Yes! Pacquiao is CLEARLY mentioned in the thread title! Yes!

**** off troll.

Floyd showed true warrior qualities that round

He gathered his wits quickly and started pressing mosley

Where does this misconception come from that Shane was gassed?

A gassed fighter isn't jumping up and down and jittery the whole fight. It looked more like he had no idea what to do against Floyd after Floyd made some adjustment in rd 2.

No, Mosley did get gassed. It looked like Mosley needed a tank of oxygen strapped to his back.

Just go back and check out on the commentating.
They mentioned a few things such as possibly over training due to back to back training camps.
They mentioned that Mosley was looking his age.
They mentioned that Floyd looked physically stronger and more youthful in there........

"Mosley is starting to get tired" - Ellerbe after 5th round
"it looks like you are fading on me" - ****m after 7th round

****m also stated that Floyd was in better shape than Mosley.

are you seriously ******ed?

Oh I'm sorry it was an absolute BOMB! Lol all that can be said about that punch was that it landed. It didn't snap his head back ... Quite frankly it didn't do anything ... Most people were shocked at how easily he went down knowing the kind of actual BOMBS Mosley has taken flush and wouldn't go down... Check out some of the shots that Canelo hit Mosley with (after PAC, even more shot), the shots that cotto hit him with and then look at that bs punch and tell me what word you'd use to describe it.

I remember Floyd holding on for dear life until he cleared his head, then making old Shane look like he was in quick sand for the next 10 rounds.

[IMDAZED]

i think more than anything , mosley was so surprised himself that he had floyd hurt the moment got to him. he didnt know what to do. hence the patty cake punches on the ropes

I don't know because if that was the case, Shane wouldn't have been able to hurt him a second time. He hurt him twice in that round. He saw he had Floyd hurt and went for the homerun. And after he rocked Floyd a second time, he pinned him against the ropes and actually landed another good right hand. But Floyd didn't go down and he landed some pretty good shots himself. End of round.

Mosley was old and possibly over trained. He really hurt Mayweather a lot but failed to follow up. For one thing when Mayweather got hurt with that big punch he locked Mosley in a clinch and held on for dear life. Mayweather has great recovery powers and if a fighter hurts him they better follow up hard and fast or he will soon be good as new.
