F.Mayweather Vs S.Mosley

[Hairdoo]

I say Mosley goes in as the underdog and KO's Floyd, but of course it depends which Mosley shows up.

If Floyd runs and Shane sits back on the end of a jab all night he loses the decision. If Shane gets close enough for long enough Floyd get stopped. The only person with comparable speed and size PBF has faced is Zab. I don't think Floyd's right hand will earn enough respect from Shane to win him the fight.

look at the accuracy shane has on the double-ended bag... very nice work and speed from sugar S

In all of Shane's fights I've only noticed 1 thing don't like about his style....his upper body is way too stiff....he never really sits down on a hook the way Tyson, Frazier, Lacy, De la Hoya, etc did....I guess it helps his handspeed but you have to worry about his power

[roflan]

never noticed that,....... shane sure hits hard.

[Hairdoo]

Its a shame they didn't just skip to the last minute of that clip but nice find all the same

I wouldn't worry to much about his power, especially when he did this in his last fight

Let them fight inside the ring and see the whole actions on it. Let's get ready to rumble! I am really excited to see this fight

[JonesJrMayweather]

Me too... Mosley has lost the speed needed to stand a chance with Mayweather, but even if he had the speed I've been watching his fight with Jesse James Leija and he just fights stupid... or really awkward, and Mayweather would have afield day with any version of Mosley if he fought like he did against COrrales.

Didn't shane stop leija? Wasn't that a one sided beat down?

[Master]

Shane by decision but i will take the stoppage if he is offering.

[Truth]

Maywetaher Wide UD.

[brucelee]

MAyweather by decision for me.



Hmmmm. I'm wondering if Mayweather asked for an olympic drug testing on Shane who's known to be a droid user.


He should be asking for that or else it might be construed that he was just afraid to fight manny.

I've been away from this forum so I currently don't know any boxing news.

I actually agree with Shane being a bit stiff. He is certainly fast...but the difference in speed between Shane and Floyd lies in the fluidity and relaxed movement. Floyd's speed and movement are so natural...very little wasted effort. In the last few years...Shane has had a tendency to load up on his punches and not throw as many crisp combos. Nazeem Richardson has seemed to fix this issue a little...but i haven't seen Shane be a complete force since his first fight with Oscar. In that fight...Shane was blinding fast...jumping in and out with great combos. I am not going to discount Shane's chances completely...he is still a great athlete and has a heart of a warrior. But Floyd, especially at this stage of their careers, is just going to be too good. I have Floyd winning on points.

Shane floors Mayweather , and wins , by points or Ko not sure which , but i voted for KO.

Mosley at his very best can take Floyd to a dark place, but a Mosley who hasn't fought in almost a year and a half and who is 39 I am less sure about. If Mosley is as good as he is saying then I think he can get to Floyd.

My heart says Mosley, but my head isn't so sure.

[FTMatty]

Probably Mayweather UD.
Can't see Moseley matching Floyds pace and power for the full fight.

Same here..I've been saying since i joined the forum that Shane is the only one that can best floyd. Knowing that they both can beat the other at any point in their career I've always leaned towards Shane because he is much stronger than Floyd with comparable speed. Floyd is 100% right now and riding a lot of ego. Shane is 100% motivated, but I wonder who's bad habits will be exposed first.

Shane is going to eat a lot of right hands and jabs if he tries to walk him down.

But Floyd in his last four fights has been able to sit in the pocket and shoulder roll against smaller men with slower hands and wide punches. Exception being old oscar. i'm wondering if floyd even has the legs to bounce and circle all night like he did against Corrales because everyone is a creature of habit and he hasnt done that in long time and no matter how good he is, his success in winning the same way over the last several years could be his undoing in this fight.

Don't really care who wins, but pulling for Shane because since joining the forum and being a Floyd supporter for a long time, he's really turned into an unbearable personality. And I would like to see which one comes out if he loses.

Against all I know, I voted for shane by UD...
