Mosley V Mayweather in there primes at lightweight

This would have been a top match in my opinion and one that no matter how hard i try i cant think of a way for Floyd to win.
Floyd has better footwork and defence , but Shane has faster hands and much more power.
It is only my opinion but i think Mosley wins via KO or UD .
Please give me your views guys :)

Mayweather wins by decision. Mosley is the harder puncher, but that's the only advantage he has. Floyd is better defensively, better footspeed, better handspeed, better technically, etc.
Power is important, but when power is the only advantage a fighter has, that fighter is going to lose 9 out of 10 times.
People knock Floyd's opposition, but Mosley never really fought anyone dangerous at lightweight. Not that Shane was ducking anyone, there just weren't any other really big names at 135 at the time.

This comment is inaccurate. I believe that Mosley in his prime had faster hand speed than Mayweather, if we were talking about present day then Mayweather would be faster. I will agree that Floyd has better defense and ring generalship than Mosley prime or present.

Floyd UD.The power issue has never had any affect on Floyd.At lightweight Mosleys hand speed might of been as fast as Floyds but it definitly wasnt faster.
