        ^^^^

        Mosley doesn’t use his reach to his advantage. No jab. Plus he was old.

          1-The post I replied to said floyd did not fight people taller or with longer reach

          2-Mosley was a world champ and ranked top 3 p4p

          3-When Floyd was 38 he did not get the "HE OLD EXCUSE"

          4-People claimed he was ducking Mosley after he came into the ring after floyd beat Jmm.. so stop trying to change history

            Its an exhibition match and not an official fight so how could it be an insult to boxing or MMA? Boxing and MMA are both programs in the entertainment industry and this exhibition will also be entertainment.

            Dont like it or support it? Dont watch it or buy it. The more you talk about Floyd, in support or against, the more he can do fights like these.

            Also, 48-0 really ruined some lives and fucked some people's minds up
            does this only applies when it comes to floyd?? because i sure do see you doing a lot of crying when it's another boxer, fighting a lesser comp... practice what you preach!

              This is a very normal fight for floyd, he's been doing this kind of fight since he fight at welterweight.

                  Margarito and Williams. You know. The guys he went on "vacation" for two years to avoid when the ww division was heating up. Those guys had (or at least looked like they had) significant height/reach advantage. Not just an inch or two like Shane and Ortiz. When the coast was clear he came back and fought the grossly undersized Marquez. Honestly dude you put Ortiz up here who only has 1 inch in height and nothing else? You reaching.

                  How about Amir Khan. Who actually won a poll that Floyd put together for the fans to decide who he should fight between Khan and Marcos Madonna. Khan looks to be taller, longer, plus he had good speed and boxing ability. Of course he totally welched on the poll and still cherrypicked the slow, short armed Madonna who was more made to order.

                  Even before Hatton, he turned down a career high 8 million to fight Margarito, and instead fought the much more dangerous Carlos Baldimir for the same $ Lol.

                  Winky Wright. He straight up backed out of a fight with him that's documented.

                  That camp always knew what fighters and fights to steer clear of and more importantly, which guys to exploit. Guys like Ortiz and Guerrero those fights got made fairly easy because they weren't much to begin with. Guys like Margarito and Williams got blatantly sidestepped, and guys like Shane, Cotto and Manny got waited out (aka marinated) until they were ripe for the pickings. I see the act has digressed all the way to 120 lb kickboxers and now YouTube stars can get in on the action.

                  So post Hatton, when Floyd was clearly picking his own fights, you have one guy. Shane Mosley. Who had any kind of height and reach advantage. We know. We know. Shane was a p4p paper champ who was pushing 40, but Floyd should get full credit.

                    Mosley at 38 had been through some grinders against fighters who were in their prime. Something Mayweather never did. Mayweather was a fresh 38 comparatively speaking and it is
                    disingenuous to claim otherwise.

                    Shane was p4p because he captured the imagination of everyone by scoring an upset as a 4 to 1 underdog. He hadn’t been dominant for a while so that p4p ranking was a little questionable. In reality he used up his last great fight against Margarito and then went inactive for 14 months before fighting Floyd.

                    These are facts. Have a good day.
