Mayweather called it. He said that Shane would be jittery and he was. Shane wasn't too jittery in the 1st and 2nd round, but once he started to get tagged by the Mayweather jab, out came the jitterbugs.

That's true, Mosley became very jittery and hesitant too. They did their homework.

at least it was fun to watch.

For the people that say Shane was too old, not as good as before, etc. I wonder if they thought that during the first 2 rounds specially when he nailed Floyd with a right that almost sent him to the canvas.

Nope , only afterwards... they will use the first two rounds to say a prime Shane would knock out Floyd of course though ;D

Mayweather had only had 1 fight in the last 2 and a half years so surely the ring rust has got to be even. Mayweather was the better man plain and simple and no one will give him the credit he is due until he's gone and then people will say about someone else .... Yes he's good but he wouldn't have beaten Floyd Mayweather.

Please people show some class and just admit Floyd was plain and simply the better man.

Just give up ever expecting these people to give Floyd credit dude - These will also be the same people who say "No, seriously, if Floyd beats Mosley I will definitely give him credit!"

Then come in here with the same, he's tired/old/overtrained/didn't eat his lucky charms this morning.

It's the same old ritual that follows every PBF fight when he dominates in such big fashion. :rolleyes:

...I felt the exact same way

But this was a fucking masterpeice of boxing on Floyd's part, I do fess up and admit he was damn near untouchable after the 2nd and he rocked Shane a bunch of times.

Floyd will do the exact same thing to Manny Pac, Floyd will set the pace after a couple of rounds and Manny will throw 500 fewer punches in the fight then he normally does and will be dominated in the same fashion as Mosley was and people won't be able to say he was to old but they will say he was drained from drug testing or to small.

Mayweather is the best fighter and everyone knows it and he has the ability to make a great fighter look ordinary.

If he gets caught like he did in the 2nd vs Pacquiao I HIGHLY doubt we're going to see the fight go the distance.


I do now think Floyd can hurt Manny after seeing him rock Shane who has a granite chin. Shane never wobbled but you could tell those right hands didn't tickle

The definition of insanity, in terms of Boxing Talk, is people wishing for the same thing over and over and always ending up being disappointed. ;D

because he was tired not because the shots were heavy...
