did anyone see this vid of Roger Mayweather predicting The Shane Victory..

[Hunter]

Roger got lucky in his prediction (and in life that he is not a homeless person based on that video)...He said Shane would beat him based upon speed...but Shane doesnt possess the speed he had 5 years ago. It wasnt just speed, it was a combination of speed, skills, power, stamina and for me the most important GAME PLAN.....He watched Cotto's and Paul Williams fights, he figured out what worked for both and put it into play...He fought from the right distance, tied up when he needed to and had the stamina to fight the same fight for TWELVE ROUNDS (even though he didnt need to go 12 rounds)....Cotto and Williams were beating Tony but slowed because they ran out of gas (due to conditioning and the punches they took). Mosley was better conditioned and came in with a plan to negate the punches that wore down Cotto.....Shane also went to the BODY

[JonesJrMayweather]

You want to give Floyd a BJ? That's nice. Why add the rest of your uneducated crap?

That i agree with....and people called roy jones a fraud for not flying over seas to fight all the guys in his era....here's floyd leaving the likes of cotto,margarito,shane,cintron, all behind and they're actually in US.

Wonder how history will read that....but blind floyd supporters will actually convince themselves that the underschoolled, smaller, pacman is more of a threat than those...

Mosley was p4p for what 1 second? And he didn't even deserve it. Roy Jones was better than him at the time that he got the p4p title, just people were tired of ROy's opposition. Margarito isn't that good, I won't say he is terrible because his workrate, inside fighting, and chin are phenomenal. Cotto or Mosley would get a big fight with Floyd if they could generate money, and I think they will get those fights down the road.

If Pacquiao is so unskilled why is he p4p number 1? Why did he beat Oscar 10x worse than anyone before him while being the smallest man to beat oscar? Why did he stop Oscar when Shane couldn't? Why did he get hit less by Oscar than Shane % wise? How did Oscar land almost 100 more punches in his second fight against Shane yet Pacquiao landed like three times as many punches as Oscar did against him.

People should learn from History, often a smaller guy gives somebody their hardest fight, Conn against Joe Louis, Holyfield against Tyson. Frazier against Ali. Speed is the hardest thing to deal with especially when your used tobeing the faster man. Mayweather has never had trouble with size, infact he usually does better against it (N'dou, Baldomir, De La Hoya, Corrales).

You must be high off floyd semen. I don't mean offense. but im a floyd supporter too. check the name. but if you believe for one second that the version of oscar that fought mosely either time was the one that fought pacman then youre either blind or hypnotized by "money mayweather" the first shane v oscar version woud kayo pac inside of 5....

And floyd gets money because of business. He picks guys that he knows he'd look good against...I.e. Gatti....then after he became a PPV fighter he picked guys that he knew he could beat...I.E oscar,judah,hatton, although i dont fault him for fighting hatton...that was a good choice.

And Shane got his P4p no 1 because he skipped two weight divisions to beat oscar. then stayed there, stopped felix a true ww that have never been stopped before. And I don't know how in the hell you can jusitfy that baldomir or judah deserved a shot before cotto or mosley that's just towing the PBF bandwagon.

Mayweather was originally going to fight Judah when Judah was the Lineal Welterweight Champ, however, after Baldomir beat Judah he took on Baldomir in order to become the lineal Welterweight Champion. He then fought Judah in order to try & unify the division although Judah would vacate the WBA before this happened.

Cotto would only move up to 147 at the tail end of 2006, after which PBF fought only two more fights, against ODLH at LMW & then Ricky Hatton, both of which were considerably more financially worthwhile.

At the time that Mayweather came up to 147, Mosley was fighting Vargas at LMW, & though he would come down to capture the interim WBC belt whilst Floyd fought Oscar, he chose to vacate it in order to fight Cotto. Now I'm not saying that specifically chose not to fight Floyd or ducked him, it's probably that Golden Boy probably realized they could make more having Mayweather fight Hatton.

So there are your reasons why Mayweather fought those guys first, I'm not saying they were great fights but there clearly were reasons why he fought them, principally that the 2 guys you mention were not fighting at Welterweight at the time

[fan johnny]

This thread has become stupid because PBF aint going to fight anyone faster than he is where he might loose. And the only fighter he'd face in this stage of his "legacy" is one he knows he can beat. So forget him proving he is the best. He is not! and will not fight to prove it.

Your a fucking idiot. First Mosley skipped one division(140) to fight Oscar at 147. Oscar started at a lower weight division than Shane Mosley. Second How is saying Pacquiao beat Oscar like nobody else before because I love Mayweather? The fact that Oscar did much better against Mayweather than he did against Pacquiao directly contradicts what you just said. If I love Mayweather so much, why do I think roughly the same Oscar got his ass kicked so much worse by Pacquiao? The reason is because I am OBJECTIVE. If I think a fighter matches up against another fighter stylewise then I say they will do well. Shane Mosley was fighting Vargas at 154 until 2007 when he fought Collazo. Mayweather fought both Judah and Baldomir in 06.

Second Cotto's first welterweight fight was after Mayweather fought Baldomir. He wasn't even in the welterweight picutre.
Mosley never even fought Felix Trinidad, now I know you know nothing about boxing so I am done talking to you.

To everyone else I think Mayweather-Mosley would be a very competitive fight, Mayweather isn't so much better than Mosley that he will humiliate him, he is good enough though to win a decision by landing the cleaner punches, by making Mosley frustrated because he will be missing, this will be similar in essence to Wright-Mosley, but obviously it will look different.

Dude you really are retarded...you think one has to be in the same division in order to be in the picture? that was rhetorical...The reason cotto,hatton,shane, oscar, even winky where considered as PBF foes was because they were all within seven pound either north or south of floyd. No one was saying hey why doesn't floyd fight barrera or pacman, because it would have been stupid just like it is now.

Oscar didn't throw anything a PACMAN nothing not even jabs...he was a walking heavybag.

And mosley was in the middle of trying to unify the WW division and lost to forest then fought a remtach. by that time felix trinidad was at 160. And if a fighter goes from 135 to 147 that's considered jumping two weight classes. Which is what Shane did...And saying pacman beat roughly the same version of oscar as PBF isn't objective its fucking stupid SUBJECTIVE PBF bandwagon thinking so that when he (PBF) opts to take the easy fight in pacman if he gets past hatton the floyd nuthair fans will support his everymove...there's no logical reason for floyd to fight pacman over shane in terms of being an ATG. In terms of money then yeah. But right now im not so sure that he'd miss that much money he fought shane because shane is the talk of the boxing world right now.
