Mayweather has better timing and speed than Cotto. Mosley wasn't able to beat up Estrada very badly, wasn't able to beat up COllazo, he won those fights quite easily especially when Collazo stopped throwing punches, but the fact was that Mosley still was landing hardly anything effective against Collazo who has nowhere near the defensive capabilities that Mayweather does. Also two of Mayweather's better punches the jab and the cross are punches that land very easily on Shane. Mayweather keeps this fight on the outside, and potshots with his cross, and uses his jab to keep Mosley off balance.

I think it would be competitive for sure, Mosley is very fast, does have good skills, but not enough to beat Mayweather IMO. Certainly doesn't have the power or arsenal to land enough punches to stop Mayweather.

shane has fought to the level of his comp..and when he feels he's the great underdog he will turn it up...all those point u made can easily be turned against floyd..floyd hasn't fought a prime a+ fighter since he was at 135...

hatton is good but's not a+ and mosely's competition easily trumps pbf. So while i won't be rooting for anything more than a good fight. I think shane wins...and shane beating margo forces pbf to stayed retired..because if comes out and fights anybody but shane, its clear that he doesn't want any part of him....sure he can come out and fight manny if he beats hatton, (which i think he wont) but manny is too small and doesnt have the skill to beat floyd...so im pulling for hatton to force floyd to fight shane...any one else is just stupid..unless he fights cotto, but if cotto fight margo again and wins they will sign a trilogy....so floyd has no choice but to face shane..
