Man of all the floyd 24/7 shows shane is the only one that looks like's really training to win and not just to compete with floyd...
They both look 100% percent.

I hear ya skel. Mosley never fails too bring it. the more i think about the fight, the more I favour mosley to win.
the jheri curl song and dance was hilarious!
oh god i am so friggin excited for this fight! i'm in the philippines so i'm gonna have to wake up early on a sunday but it's all good!
Action starts about 1pm for me.. It's perfect, Sunday morning, have a sleep in, wake up,,,, and jump on here for the pre fight chit chat... Or sleep extra long and wake up just to find a good stream for the fight..
Right now i'm downloading a couple of old Mosley fights to get myself even more excited... I know exactly what Mayweather will bring, just wanna convince myself of every possible way Mosley is going to make this a fight to the death...
I really really hope Mosley has at least 3 of the first 6 rounds in a clear enough fashion that Mayweather knows he has to be a+ for the rest of the fight... 4 of the first 6 would be phenomenal and could bring an aspect out in this fight that we havn't seen in any other Floyd fight..
Every round Mosley gives away though from the very first round is going to take the sizzle out of it I feel...
Still, you gotta think if there is one guy out there that even being 11 points down, he's going to lay everything he has out on the table in the 12th..

Hopefully about lunch time for me. I can't wait. I'm really hoping Mosley is in shape because if he is then Mayweather is going to have his hands full.
I agree that Mosley needs to start strong. He can't just feel out the opening rounds, he has to take them with both hands, putting Mayweather in an early hole. Mayweather seldom throws more than 40-50 punches a round so there is no reason Mosley cannot hustle them rounds out. Hatton almost got there early on and DLH made a fair stab at it. Judah did it too, and I regard Mosley as bigger and stronger than both Hatton and Judah. I'm sure Mosley can make his mark early. He also needs to keep Mayweather guessing and hopefully there are a number of approaches to confuse Mayweather in this regard.
This has the potential to be something really, really interesting. We know what Mayweather brings to the table, but I'm less sure about Mosley with the long layoff and age. It's rare that we see fighters in the lower weight classes produce career bests at 38, but Mosley has always been a quality athlete. Fingers crossed.
I just watched the Miguel Cotto/Shane Mosley fight again from a couple of years ago - definitely one of my favourite fights from the past few years. Very close but Cotto deserved his decision. Some of the shots that Shane took were incredible and many other fighters would've been KO'd. If the fight is half as good as that fight was, we will be in for a treat.![]()
Cool, never thought about it from your POV. For me it wont start til 3.30 to 4am. Although for the first time in a while the undercard is pretty stacked so I'll be tuning in from 2am.
I've got every finger crossed that Mosley pulls it off. There's some pretty tasty odds for Mosley but my head keeps over ruling my heart. PBF is odds on so not really worth putting anything on him...
Yes, very good fight, but still quite close in the end. I really don't think Floyd has it in him to hurt Mosley like Forrest nor Winky or even Cotto (though Cotto to a lesser extent). Mosley is going to respect Floyd, but I can see him taking his share of risks to get his work done. I can see Floyd struggling somewhat with the pressure that Mosley might well bring. Aside from DLH, Mosley is the biggest fighter with skills and speed that Floyd will have faced. Hopefully with the right mix of strategies Mosley will have it in him to make this a fight and maybe even take Floyd's scalp. Maybe more hoping on my part, but Mosley is no slouch.
