    There will be those that will say it, I want be one of them. Sure Mosley isn't at his peak but imo he's the most competitive opponent Floyd has faced in years!

    He's taken the bigger money over the better fights in recent years! That's why I applaud him for taking such a risky fight. Sure Floyd is the wide favourite but I'm sure there are very few that can't conceive a Mosley victory & that he has no chance at all... Mosley is a very live dog in this fight!!!

    Should be great. Hope Shane wobbles Floyd for once so we can see him really tested out.
    Good on Floyd for taking it on too, it is the riskiest fight available to him.

    How can anybody say anything bad about this fight when a lot of naysayers including Roach thought Mayweather wouldn't sign to fight Mosley. If not Pac, who else would people like to see Floyd fight? It was either Pac or Mosley. Nobody else matters at welterweight for the these guys. I personally think Mosley is going to take Mayweather to places "He don't like." Even if Mayweather does win Mosley will be something serious to Floyd. If Floyd wins easily I will be shocked. So you know now I will give no excuses if I am wrong. I see Mosley and Mayweather fighting tooth and nail. Mayweather better bring his Corrales magic for this fight.

    So 39 years old for a WW/LMW isnt old ? is that what you are saying ?
    If not what do you class as old ?

    If he's "old" then don't pick him against Floyd.

    Don't say Mosley is gonna beat Floyd and then if Floyd wins say Mosley is old. If you are gonna say Mosley is old then don't pick Shane to win. Simple as that I think.

    This is pointless. It's the nature of fight fans that as soon as a guy loses, or loses again, he isn't good as he was before. Mosley will no doubt be thought of as less of a credible threat. This should have a name like the Jeff Lacy theory.

    it's as simple as if someone is gonna say a fighter is old if they lose then don't pick that fighter to win.

    Don't say "Mosley is gonna beat Floyd" and then if he loses say "Mosley is old" as if, if he was young then you would have been right in your prediction.

    I'm picking Mayweather to win this in a more one sided fashion then others may pick for him. And I'm not gonna make any excuse if Mayweather loses.

    So none should make an excuse for Mosley if he loses. Because if he is "old" then why pick him?

    So if you think Mosley has enough to beat Floyd stick with that, don't just abandon it if Floyd puts a beating on Mosley.

    Does it count if Mayweather just MAKES him LOOK old?

    Or if you start saying he's old right now, would that be okay??

    I think he's old right now. Too old for Mayweather.. And Mayweather is most likely going to make him look much older than he would look against anyone else..



    And besides, we aren't all psychics... In hindsight we can all have better judgements... Right now people can focus on a lot of what Mosley has to offer.. And in reality that is quite a bit... And how the f'ck do we know if he's going to look like a million bucks in there, or old and sh!t like he doesn't even belong in the same sentence as Mayweather?? Of course people can say right now that Mosley has a good shot and even with his age, one could expect him to do well... But then after the fight realise that, you know what, he was to old! He didn't have the snap in his punches or the spring in his step or the reflexes he once had... I want to beleive he'll have all that.. And I think it's great for someone to pin their hopes on that and overlook his age in support of him... But after the fight, we'll all see for sure how old he is or looks....

    I think the main point is, that no one is taking something away from Floyd by saying Mosley is old after the fight.. Yes they say he's a threat now.. Yes they'll say he was just too old after the fight... That doesn't take away from the fact he was a threat to begin with and that Floyd had a challenge on his hands.. It just proves that you have to be 100% to beat Floyd, and in Hindsight, Mosley wasn't.....

    I think Majesty has a point. If someone is picking Mosley to win don't use some excuse later like say Mosley was old as an excuse if he loses.

    Not going to mention names, but when Pacquiao beat Cotto, the same people that predicted Cotto would ko Pac later said Pacquiao beat a shot fighter, that was an excuse to discredit that win, they didn't say he was a shot fighter before the fight, but after the fight that was the excused used.

    If you're making a prediction on the guy stick to it don't use some sorry excuse later on if the fighter you're backing loses.

    I have to say I agree.
