    Doubt it will happen as mosleys been in with some big men and took there shots. If it did however we'd really have to give mayweather his just dues. Because I think it would be a great achievement.

    well it'd mean more than that, apart from Forrest who has really hurt Mosley? the guy has a beer keg for a chin, so IMO if Floyd manages to stop him it would say alot

    i doubt it's going to happen either, my prediction is a UD for Mayweather, but this is boxing and anything can happen any given night, so it's not impossible

    Youd have to give props to Floyd but you would ask questions of Mosley as a couple of decades ago he wouldnt have been stopped.

    Why would you ask that? He hasn't even been slightly rattled against Cotto, Margarito or Mayorga and this is all recent.

    For the record I don't see how it's possible to get a stoppage, so I would be very impressed.

    My reply is this, Mayweather has been in the right place at the right time since he left the super featherweight division. Picking and choosing some people that had one foot on a banana peel and the other on a grave. I'm not a fan which is obvious but I respect his talent and the you have to admire. He did not do as well as can be expected with a fading a fading DeLaHoya and Marquez was much to small but he toyed with him because he could not Kayo him. I'm not saying he's not great or has that potential but man to man even a fading Mosley that ha been full of surprises can be dangerous. Mosley also has great stamina and now Floyd has one thing to prove. Does he have the will to win? Can he be impressive against a man with equal skills if not the disadvantages in years? Will Floyd have to absorb a real puncher's blows with speed nearly like his own? What's the date of the match?

    I don't think Floyd winning would be a reason to say Mosley got old overnight (although many will)

    But stopping him? Put it this way, I'm not going to be able to see it unless things change, if I come home late Saturday night and go online and see Floyd TKO the very first thing I will think is Mosley got old. Because while I can see Floyd beating a prime or even slightly post-prime Mosley I can't see him stopping him.

    If the impossible happens...Floyd would be in the drivers seat big time while he tried to land a fight with Manny. I'd give him his due as well...that's for sure. But even if Floyd has the opportunity to go for a stoppage/knockout, history says he won't go for it.

    Even more to the point, he was trying to KO JMM and couldn't.

    Well...a cut...a bs wobble stoppage?

    First thing I'd do is check Mosleys blood for food poisoning.I dont think Floyd has the desire to earn that ko personally.

    Mosley's punch resistance has totally gone.

    No way does Floyd stop Mosley though, Mosley has always been very durable.

    I think its overlooked the rights that Marquez was able to get into range on him.Yeh he was owning the fight big time,but that right hand was getting in.
