Not sure how Shanes legacy will stand in history but people who know their boxing will recognise he was a great
you shouldn't say things like that because those who haven't seen it will believe it...PBF wasn't floored by judah because of power it was a balance shot and floyd wasn't even hurt..so don't exagerrate...
Is it an exageration to say that feather fisted Corley hurt him too ?
no because chop did hurt him..with a very clean punch but mayweather didn't go down he in fact turned the aggression towards chop...
but it is an exaggeration to say judah dropped him esp when it wasn't even called...and floyd wasn't hurt, it was a glancing balance shot and his glove touched the canvas..but he was in no way "floored" as you put it....

but shouldnt that have been considered a knockdown . if a punch caused a slip then it should have been counted . I saw a punch knock Mayweather off balance and he touched down , the same things happend to Trinidad ( against Mayorga ) and Pac ( against Barrera ) and they got counted so why not Floyd . No doubt he gets preferential treatment cuz he could have been d.q'd in that fight . Rules state that the boxer whos cornerman enters the ring shall be d.'d but not in Floyds case ::**

Ive read a different justification which was they didnt think it was fair to lose his undefeated record for a mistake of his uncles doing . But still something needs to be done otherwise everyones cornerman will be coming into the ring and starngling the opponent . I didnt mind cuz it was only Judah afterall ;D
Re: Does shane mosley have a legacy?
yeah man steele called time..so it was okay to get in the ring..and it's not floyd's fault steele didn't see his glove touch the ground.. so take a point away from floyd judah still loses a UD..so it doesn't even matter...do you think that Mayorga gave a shit that he got a knockdown scored in his favor against tito? because he was knockeddown three times enroute to losing...
Re: Does shane mosley have a legacy?
Shane was one of the best Lightweights already which imo gives him a legacy.
Re: Does shane mosley have a legacy?
I thought Holiday gave him a pretty hard fight considering it was Holiday... I would have liked to have seen Mosley fight JLC or something who wouldn't get tired in the ring, and had power, and alot of skill to boot.
