He floored Fernando Vargas.
Yeah he did, didn't look like Vargas came to win though. He changed nothing from the first fight. Mosley looked good winin every round and KO'n Vargas. He needs to man up and fight Floyd Maywhether now, not later, but now. He's only gettin older.
So does that make Wilfredo Rivera great?Quote:

Its called science.
Punchers are slow. They follow people around and punch'em.
Box fast and throw nice combos. Bank the rounds. The boxer
will win everytime (as long as the chin is good).
Well done Shane Mosley.

Nice idea but Felix Sturm didn't win.Quote:

I was very surprised to see Mosley floor Vargas so heavily especially so early in the fight cuz ive never rated his power at 154 but as his confidence grew the combos started flowing and the gulf in class was massive .
Massive respect to Shane for that win . Sensational . Vargas to me looked bigger and more dangerous against Oscar and Tito .I dont know if it was the weight making but even Shane said he wasnt as strong as he was in the 1st fight . Im sure we'l find out but Shane did a better job than Tito and Oscar and deserves full respect .
Or maybe the helping hand of steroids made him look bigger against tito and oscar.Quote:

People are always saying how come great fighters dont always fight the best talent well Shane has been doing that for most of his career NEVER ducked anyone, SO what Forrest beat Shane he had his number..Whats Forrest doing now??? Fighting a Career saving fight his destiny is dependent on what he does against IKE QUARTEY who WAS great but has clearly seen his best days..
Good win for Shane last night
It was nice how Shane timed that shot ! However Vargas was slow like cold molasses from the beginning of the fight ,Quote:

Lets just look at this fight as it really is, a good win over a solid veteran. Now if Mosley steps up & face Mayweather & wins now that would make him an all time great!!!
Does Felix Strum have a good chin?
No
25 wins, never put down, then gets knocked out so obviously his chin is bad. Sounds like some serious circular reasoning there buddy.Quote:

On the topic at hand, Shane Mosley IS GREAT. CC for you sir.
