    If you think FLoyd beats the lightweight Mosley who knocked out everyone or the 2000 Mosley that decisively defeated Oscar then you are dreaming. I still think Mosley would win because he's fast and strong and a great fighter. He wouldn't mentally check out of the fight like Zab because he's a true champion. Stoppage? Come on, Shane's never been stopped and he's fought guys who do more damage than Floyd Mayweather

        Floyd always does great against the orthodox stance with his straight left.

        If we get the Mosley of old like in DLH for his 2 victories than we will have a good fight.

        Floyd posses faster hands and has age on his side

        Mosley has experience and a good chin

        Mayweather is smart but Mosley is smarter

        Mosely lacks confidence where Mayweather is still invincable due to his undefeated record(also the case for Lacy but he found out the Hard way)

        Mayweather slows down off a good body attack(look at Castillo fight for instance) Mosley has/had a good body attack

        Mayweather uses combinations where Mosley tends to throw one at a time as of late.

        Floyd fast on feet Mosley now a straight foward fighter.

        My prediction is Floyd by UD but I do see it as a one sided victory I see Mosley actually giving Mayweather alittle problems for the first 5 rounds then become frustrated loss his confidence and begin to lose it from there without being knocked down or seriously injured.

                I like Mosley but I don't even know if this fight should even happen.Mosley vs. Mayweather at 135 would have been huge with no clear favorite imo.PBF UD12.

                  Yeah I wouldn't mind seeing this fight.Sugar Shane still has some
                  speed left.But I would have loved to see them fight at lightweight.I think they had similiar styles,but Shane had more power at lightweight.

                    I think Shane's confidence got a big boost by the Vargas fight. I agree that it was a bit rattled coming off the Wright fights

                      the same can be said for PBF vs. zab. zab has a very weak chin hes been rocked by guys with no power. b4 the fight PBF said it was going to be flawless vs. jawless but it turned out to be poweless vs classless
