Doesn't matter what Floyd fans say the haters have a win/win fight on their hands.
Shane only has to be half-competitive to persuade most he would have beaten Floyd when younger.

Re: I hope people wont say "O mosley was old"
You're absolutely correct. But I'm not a Floyd hater and don't need Shane to fight close to be convinced that prime vs prime Shane walks through Floyd.Originally Posted by Fenster

True...Floyd is getting to the age where it is time for most to wind down especially fighters WW and under....I'd have to remind em that Floyd isn't exactly young himself

Re: I hope people wont say "O mosley was old"
The built-in excuses is what I hate most about boxing.
Shane is rated no.2 at welterweight, no.3 P4P and is coming off one of his greatest wins. His age shouldn't be a factor due to his current standing in world boxing.
Anyone that beats a fighter with those credentials deserves nothing but huge respect. Obviously, as already highlighted, that wont be the case. Shame.

Re: I hope people wont say "O mosley was old"
BHOP is still rated top 2 at LHW. 6 p4p, and WBO super champ, but if he were to fight Dawson, that 45 age would look like 55. Hey it's too bad but that's the boxing game. Floyd has to utterly dominant Shane, period. Because if he's not going to get any credit he might as well try to do something no one has ever done which is stop shane, that will give a lot weight to floydboys in regards to how they might have match in their primes.

Re: I hope people wont say "O mosley was old"
Shane is old... but his recent fights have indicated that he can still fight and is without a trace of ill effects from missing a beat. Surprisingly, with success of his outing with the "brick banger", Antonio, he has decisively negated this factoid as a handicap.
Shane or Floyd Jr. wins this fight, either man should be given full credit for it, for it is a great fight.
True boxing fans can surely appreciate this match-up!

Re: I hope people wont say "O mosley was old"
The difference is - Hopkins is not coming off a great performance. Hopkins looked shit against Roy. His rating is pretty much false at this stage.BHOP is still rated top 2 at LHW. 6 p4p, and WBO super champ, but if he were to fight Dawson, that 45 age would look like 55. Hey it's too bad but that's the boxing game Floyd has to utterly dominant Shane, period. Because if he's not going to get any credit he might as well try to do something no one has ever done which is stop shane, that will give a lot weight to floydboys in regards to how they might have match in their primes.
Had Hopkins fought Dawson after the Pavlik win plenty would have picked him.
