Lets be honest about last night!!!!

Floyd's already fought taller opponents with a greater reach advantage.

And he went up to Oscar's weight as his first fight at 154 in Oscars ring, Oscars promotion, Oscars gloves, Oscar's venue and still beat him. yet Pacquiao gets more credit for beating a dead zombie of Oscar De La Hoya then Floyd does for doing it the first time.

By the way Floyd weighed in at 150 for the Oscar De La Hoya fight and Oscar came in at 154, it was the same 4 pound weight advantage and Floyd didnt have an issue nto to mention it was his first fight at 154 but lets just forget all that and complain that Floyd weighed one pound under the "contracted" weight to take more credit from him.

And i hope you're aware that Floyd would have that same height and reach advantage against Marquez even if they fought at 135 and it would be an even bigger speed advantage. Come on guys this is getting silly.


neither Mosley Cotto or Pacquiao want a part of Paul Williams and neither of them are trying to fight Berto. So why is Floyd who just came back from retirement while all these people have been active the man that HAS to challenge these people? Where are the "why doesn't Shane fight Paul Williams, or Berto" threads?

If we compare the challenges undertaken against individual opponents, i think it'd be clear that Mosleys record needs no flak for choice of opponents. You'll probably find atleast 5 fighters of greater challenge than floyd has on his resume. Foresst, Winky, Cotto and Margarito to name four straight away

He lost to both Forrest and Winky by the way. So they are counted for him just taking them on but not losing twice to both? Hell Trinidad has Winky on his record, want to give him credit for losing too? Mosley also lost to Cotto, the only people on that 4 Mosley has beaten was Margarito.

now lets look at Floyds

G. Hernandez, C. Hernandez, Chavez, Corrales, Castillo, Gatti, Judah, De La Hoya, Hatton, Marquez.

Mayweather beat them all.

In fact putting all those names on Shanes resume. You say, Forrest, Wright, Cotto, De La Hoya. The only person Shane beat was Oscar. And even that was debatable the second time around.

Castillo beat him and the rest were at the end of their careers. The elite stopped Judah, Gatti was battered by DLH before his wars with Ward years before and stopped quicker, Hoya was at the end of his career, Baldomir was a one off lucky 'Rocky story', Hatton was crap at Welter as was Marquez. Shane has lost fights because he has fought the best and most dangerous guys around while they were in their PRIME!

Surely you know your talking rubbish
