[hawkporvida]

even if pacman waS TAKING steriods do you really think he would risk it all for roids i think not its just another excuse to delay the fight until pacman loses loses some confidence then ull here run mayweather talk his shit

[Kirkland Laing]

Pacneedle will refuse to take the tests again and the media will blame Floyd for the fight not being made.

[hawkporvida]

I completely agree that it's a good thing to have the highest standard of testing in a sport. However the sport has to institute the testing. People in the sport can't just pick or choose what others should do. This is a trivial analogy but for the Canadian folks on here look at visors in hockey. Everyone knows they're good but think if the Canadiens say we're not playing the Leafs unless you all wear visors. They'd say to hell with you guys. If the Nhl said everyone's wearing visors they'd say alright.

Main thing I don't think people saw coming was that Mayweather after being stunned came right out and right at Shane Mosley he didn't run away he didnt spend the rest of the round on his bike. He sprouted wings and a tail and became a dragon just like Nazim said he would and came forward and started pushing Mosley back all night. I expected Mayweather to outbox Mosley, but I didn't think he would walk him down the way he did. No one has ever dominated Mosley that badly ever and i strongly think if Mayweather had decided to pressure Mosley then he would have stopped him or forced Nazim to throw in the towel

Yeah, what I started to try to write a couple different ways but didn't manage to. Floyd was aggressive, after almost getting KTFO in round 2. He didn't run away from this arguably harder puncher to win by potshots. He took the fight to Mosely and just outscored him with speed and timing. Exactly the kinds of things he is most often criticized for didn't happen here, against a welterweight, and he came forward to Mosely after getting hurt.

That shows a lot of things about Floyd's heart as well as his skill.

But it's also his skill to know that if he tried to run and fight cutsie solely from the outside against Sugar Shane, he'd probably get caught again, and it might end the fight next time. So taking it to Shane wasn't just heart, it was skill and understanding. He knew he had to go to Mosely and outbox him within Mosely's range to keep Mosely off him.

So he did. Because he could.

At least, that's how it looks to me.

I think it was the last episode of 24/7... Floyd up close on the punch bag... Floyd snr 'thats where you need to be, right there.'

Mayweathers boring if he 'runs' and he's boring if he comes forward, lol. jokers.

Yeah, I saw a change in Shane, after he stunned him it was almost like he thought he was gonna walk down Mayweather, fight at his pace and eventually stop him late. So when Mayweather started coming forward in the same round trying to pay him back for hurting him, I think in Mosley's mind he went "wtf!?! I just hit him with my hardest shots why is he coming forward? Why isnt he running!?!" And right there, Mayweather had that fight mentally, Nazim was completely correct when he said Floyd was a scrapper, I think he told Mosley that but Shane didn't believe it, till it was too late.

Gutted Floyd did'nt taste canvas in the 2nd but big props to Mayweather, schooled, well and truly. Shows he can be hurt though. I'd be very intrigued to know whether the Pac camp fancy the job or not now though. I don't see any other outcome than a Floyd win though.

Very impressed with Floyd last night he showed heart and a good chin when he got hurt and surprissed Shane by comming straight back at him after every shot Shane landed.

Anybody can be hurt, so that wasn't new information. But it was definitely unfamiliar to see Floyd when he was hurt like that. Looked like "game over" for a few minutes.

Mosely Trainer said that he expects Floyd to turn into raging bull after he was hurt. That is exactly what happened in the fight. Mosely's Trainer has shown that he is a truth teller.

And the point of letting me know that was?

Some have better beards than others, that there is no doubt about. Mayweather's supreme defence aside, he shows that his beard can be tested. Ha. And tested it was. I certainly, if only for 20 - 30 secs thought it was curtains for floyd. At the higher weight against the bigger puncher, his beard will be tested again. I reckon Pac can test it for sure.
