you will never own me you retard. how the hell was floyd ducking shane when floyd was on his way up from 135 and 140 and mosley was fighting at 154 how the fuk is he ducking him when floyd wasnt even even in the same weight class (147) until he fought Mitchell while shane was fighting Vargas twice then floyd went up in weight to fight oscar in 07. you are a dumbass
I really don't see your point about Floyd Mayweather being wobbled, thats the only time he has ever been wobbled and i have seen all of his fights, including quite a few of his Amateur fights.
The only other time he got shook was in a very early fight of his, where he got hit by a huge left hook but he soon recovered. DeMarcus Corley is a pretty decent puncher, i've seen him wobble fighters with one punch.
And he hit Floyd Mayweather with a very unorthodox shot/hard shot, it caught him off balance and Floyd Mayweather never see it coming, but Floyd Mayweather was still calm and he recovered in a matter of 20 seconds. And then he wobbled DeMarcus Corley later in the round.
Your seriously overrating Shane Mosley he is a great fighter and one of my favorites, but he has some serious flaws himself. He has at times got very disheartened/frustrated in fights especially in the Winky Wright fights.
I've never really see Shane Mosley be able to adapt in a fight either, in both the Winky Wright fights he was not able to solve the Winky Wright puzzle. And constantly got caught with the jab one of Shane Mosley's weaknesses.
Also in the Vernon Forrest fights even though he did do better in the very sloppy rematch. Again he couldn't deal with Vernon Forrest's clinching and was again outboxed and lost a decision.
What makes Floyd Mayweather special is that he is able to adapt, in any type of fight especially in his fights against Jose Luis Castillo 1 and 2, Zab Judah, Ricky Hatton, Oscar De La Hoya ETC.
You bring up that he lost 3 rounds against Zab Judah but again, is that the best possible argument you can come up with ? all i think is that fight showed Floyd Mayweather's greatness once again.
That he was able to overcome those first 3 bad rounds, and comeback solve the puzzle and give Zab Judah a beating. And he would of stopped him had it not been for the steet thug move from Zab Judah.
Again im reading your comments and your other argument makes no sense to me either. So he went 12 rounds with Carlos Baldomir and won 12 rounds to 0, i don't see how that prove's anything.
Carlos Baldomir is a very strong guy with a very good chin, he fought Vernon Forrest at Jr Middleweight and ate his shots up like they were nothing.
You also don't have a clue what your on about regarding Ricky Hatton, he isn't one dimensional and if you see his fight with Ben Tackie. When he had to box on the back foot and use his boxing skills, you would know he is far from one dimensional.
I also love how people dismiss Ricky Hatton considering he was one of the top 10 P4P fighters. It just seems to me no matter what Floyd Mayweather does he gets no credit.
Lastly i don't remember Sharmba Mitchell giving Floyd Mayweather any trouble ? i thought he mostly toyed with Sharmba Mitchell. He quite easily beat ODLH so i don't see your argument there at all.
He had a bad shoulder injury against Jose Luis Castillo in there 1st meeting, and in the rematch he quite comfortably beat him. Are you frigging kidding me or something ? when the hell did Carlos Baldomir, Arturo Gatti, hit Floyd Mayweather ?
Let alone alot are you out of your mind ? he dominated those fights with ease. Emanuel Augustus landed one punch that broke Floyd Mayweather's nose, it was a fluke and despite that one moment. He got whooped from pillar to post.
DeMarcus Corley had one decent round against Floyd Mayweather, but he lost the other 11 rounds and was dropped multiple times so again. I don't see that you have any good arguments here at all.
Shane Mosley had awkward/tough fights against Wilfredo Rivera, Phillip Holiday, in his prime. And lets not forget his gift against Oscar De La Hoya in the rematch, again what does this prove ? just like what does your comments prove ?
The only difference is that those fights you mentioned which were 7 fights, were supposedly Floyd Mayweather was hit alot or ETC. He only lost 13 rounds if that combined with all of those 7 fights, where as Shane Mosley lost more than that in those 3 fights i mentioned above.
But again it proves nothing styles make fights, both are great fighters. But i feel Floyd Mayweather is too much of a good all rounder, and is a better all round fighter than Shane Mosley. Shane Mosley's Power/Speed/Jab will make it very competitive. But i see Floyd Mayweather coming out on top with a competitive decision.

There's no doubt that Shane would have a chance to beat Floyd, but what people truly tend to forget is the fact that there is a reason Floyd Mayweather was the top fighter in the world for so long. He's simply on another level than most world champions. No one, including Floyd, is unbeatable, but the notion that a fighter of his caliber will simply be dismantled is insane. A fighter would have to fight the perfect fight to beat him, and even still, he would most likely just barely beat him. People act as if Corley was the only person in history to lay a glove on Mayweather's head, and thus if anyone can merely connect, they will wobble him. That's just insane. Instead of looking at how many fights a fighter has had, try calculating approximately how many punches have been thrown at him. It's in the tens of thousands. If a guy's only been rocked one or two times out of 50,000 attempts, odds are he won't get caught. And let's not forget that Vargas, Mayorga, and Margarito ain't exactly carbon copies of Floyd Mayweather. I find it hard to believe that a guy who went over 5 years without even scoring a knockout is gonna seriously hurt arguably the greatest defensive fighter of this generation.
The world is coming to an end.. I have agreed with you a few times over the past couple days
People are getting all sentimental over Shanes win over Margarito... Margarito is very slow with probably the world shittiest defense.. Not saying he's not bad ass with his aggression and terminator like pressure and resolve.. Shane is a big Welter who was stronger than Margarito and 10x faster and fearless..
Shane is there to be outboxed, his defeats were against skilled tacticians, Wright-Forrest and Cotto outboxed Mosley down the stretch.. Mayweather is the best boxer in the biz hands down and is technically lightyears ahead of Mosley.. Floyd would frustrate Shane use his footwork and defense to pick up a desicion.
Shane is a hall of famer and a big fight competitor, but Mayweather is a bad matchup for him
For most of his career, Shane fought one way because that's all his father-trainer knew. Jack Mosley was never great at gameplanning. Shane did what he did, and usually he was talented enough to win.
Just the thought...now that Nazem is training him, it's there a chance that Nazem sits down, studies Mayweather, and creates his own plan?
Floyd has offered to fight Shane in the past, when he was younger.. Shane said his tooth was loose and didnt want the fight
So your pathetic drivel is just that, Floyd would have happily fought Shane... Shane strated getting Ballsy with Floyd after he beat Oscar, thats why Floyd stuc kit to him and said he wasnt going to fight a sparring partner and a non draw, when he had Hatton in the wings...
People were dogging Shane when he fought Vargas, saying he was slipping and big whoop he stopped him 2x..... So at the time Shane wasnt doing anything blockbuster.. Then people were talking shit that Floyd was calling out and picking on an Old Mosley..
So give me a fing break about Floyd being FORCED to fight Shane, and when he comes out of retirement and beats Shane its retards like you who'll claim Shane was old, although people have been calling Shane old for about 6-7 years now
Shane is one of my all time favorite fighters and I have never picked against him in his career, but no way does he beat Floyd, nor is Floyd afraid of Shane.. Tony was exposed for what he was, a face first iron chinned warrior with good stamina with no plan B... Shane was the guy with the perfect style to stop him.

All the best trainers have tried, Nazeem is smart but is getting alot of publicity for beating 2 1 dimensional fighters with no plan B's.. Albeit 2 tough young champs in their prime.
The 2 things that made a difference in Pavlik/Hopins-Mosley/Margarito was hand speed, footwork... Floyd has all that with the ring intelligence to have a plan A,B,C.. Im not saying its impossible, but Richardson wasnt planning against 2 master skilled ring tacticians
I agree 1000000000000% and I am still riding the high of Shanes win and as a fan am nostalgic and what have you, but eventually people will sober up soon.. Like I said, people were dogging Floyd before about mentioning Shanes name and that he was past it etc... Now the notion that all of a sudden after beating up Margarito, which in about every Floyd fan knew Mayweather would comprehensivly beat Tony if they ever fought too, Shane all of a sudden is anybetter off tecnically than he was a few years ago is insane
