Thats all Ive seen of the fight.Guess I need to get up to speed.What do you know,Floyds human after all.
Thought Mosley should just aim for his temple as he comes wide but suprised that was that clean.All credit to Mayweather for soaking it up...he was shook and stepping off curbs that didnt exist for a minute.Mosley should have jumped him but not sure it would have mattered really.

he was hurt more by the 2nd shot and didn't deny it (nor confirm it) in the interview but jesus, Shane looked like he'd shot his load at the end of the round and never recovered. It takes nothing away from Floyd he held on, got through it adjusted and took back control of the fight.

I don't think Mosley was tired that early to be honest, he may of been but give Floyd his props.
Alot of fighters would of folded under those shots, or would of at least took a few rounds to get going again but not Floyd.
He took it to Shane in the 3rd and it shocked him imo.

You have to give credit to Floyd for that. He took them and came right back, he never looked to get away, he walked straight back towards Shane and fired back at him. I was just watching the replay, and you could actually see the shock on Shane's face when he was punching him back in the last 30 seconds of that round.
JonesJrMayweather and I have had our fair share of disagreements. But he's undoubtedly right in my opinion here. Shane looked lethargic the whole fight. everyone hoping or picking Shane to win thought the Shane of old would come back. 10 Years ago Shane had the stamina, combination punching to give Floyd all he could handle.

Floyd really impressed me in the fight. He took a few very solid shots and managed to stay on his feet, holding on is simply the experience you'd hope a fighter would have after 40 fights.
Floyds legs did look wobbly when he tried to march back, but even if Mosley got the knockdown, I think the result would have been the same, Mayweather would have simply gahered his breath and continued boxing.
Mayweather is incredibly consistant, he picks a tactic and then does that more or less for 12 rounds and as his opponent slows, he opens up a bigger lead through being consistant. Whether his style is enough to wear Pacman out is another story.
I think Mosley did well, you have to credit him for rocking Mayweather and trying to fight his own style, but his style was like a poor mans Floyd.
Mosley did look out of gas from round 3 onwards, which at first seems amazing seeing he probably trained for 15 rounds, but the thing to remember is how Floyd's style wears you out. When boxing tense, it takes so much more out of you. There wasn't one point where Mosley looked relaxed and was constantly expending energy in blocking or hugging.
Well done Floyd, but you are still a dick.
