And IF chop caught and wobbled PBF, the last thing he wants to do is stand and allow Shane to throw. It seems as though people are blind, and have short memories.
Floyd would more than likely wear the pillow gloves to protect his hands which means Shane will walk through is pot shots. And in order to pot shot someone you have to be noticeably quicker/faster. PBF isn't when it comes to Shane. Shane's arms are longer and now that he has his jab back, their jabs will be equal. And Shane is WAAAAAAY stronger and has more power than Floyd at any point of his career. And lastly, where do blind pbf fans get off thinking that Shane is some brawler with out accuracy? Watch his fights and see how accurate the throws head and body shots. Watch the first round of the fight with tony and see the body shot that probably was responsible for people thinking tony was "off". Shane nearly split him in half with the right hand in the first minute of the fight and tony's knees buckled. Floyd is accurate too but not when he throws with power he's reckless. Floyd has to sit and calculate his shots. Shane would have won six years ago, and will still beat Floyd now.
Go to vegas, sneak into the gym and listen to Uncle Roger and Ellerbe tell lil floyd, "Shane is too strong, too quick, and too tough, he aint worth the risk of having a 1 in the "L" column."
There's no doubt that Shane would have a chance to beat Floyd, but what people truly tend to forget is the fact that there is a reason Floyd Mayweather was the top fighter in the world for so long. He's simply on another level than most world champions. No one, including Floyd, is unbeatable, but the notion that a fighter of his caliber will simply be dismantled is insane. A fighter would have to fight the perfect fight to beat him, and even still, he would most likely just barely beat him. People act as if Corley was the only person in history to lay a glove on Mayweather's head, and thus if anyone can merely connect, they will wobble him. That's just insane. Instead of looking at how many fights a fighter has had, try calculating approximately how many punches have been thrown at him. It's in the tens of thousands. If a guy's only been rocked one or two times out of 50,000 attempts, odds are he won't get caught. And let's not forget that Vargas, Mayorga, and Margarito ain't exactly carbon copies of Floyd Mayweather. I find it hard to believe that a guy who went over 5 years without even scoring a knockout is gonna seriously hurt arguably the greatest defensive fighter of this generation.
