It was fixed

I'm sure I heard a 120-110 in there somewhere, I think it was the last judge. I'll have to check again. Clearly wouldn't have changed the result, but it stuck out at the time.

No 11-1 was one of the judges.

Just checked, was 119-109 twice and 118-108 on the other. My ears are a bit broken clearly

To reply to the title I just don't know. I did feel it was a bit funny that Shane Mosley who usually is well known for getting his man out of there quickly when they are hurt and for finishing very strong down the stretch couldn't do either. I mean I have never seen Mayweather get hit like that. His legs completely gone and him simply being out of it for well over a half a round. Then for him to sweep every single round after that? What the hell happened to Mosley ? He didn't get hit with anything to not make him think twice about coming in for the kill. He simply held on to Mayweather after he tagged him almost like he was holding him up and then his excuse was "I tightened up". Larry Merchant said "Shane you have been fighting for sixteen years and you tightened up?".

When I watched it the first time I seen Shane lackadazicul and out of gas in about the fourth round. Mouth wide open and slouched in his corner. The only thing that came to my mind was them damn blood tests and surprise UT's. I kept wrapping my mind around it.How the hell could someone who was so good at getting his man out of there just suddenly give up. So I asked a few people what they thought about the fight. Granted these are not the brilliant Saddo posters but fighters. When I asked these 3 people. They all said the same thing. "This fight seemed funny probably fixed". Truth is I don't know myself but when millions of dollars are at stake and the potential all-time grossing fight is waiting in the background one could just never know. I would never rule out a fix.

I'm gonna float something out there to play Devil's advocate: could Shane be a simple mortal once deprived of his 'enhancements'? It is strange how he looked ready to go at least 6 more rounds against Cotto and Margarito, but he's gassed after 2 with Mayweather?

you can say that. but from what i gather, PEDs only help with recovery time of reapir of muscle tissues. if that's the case, it should only affect punching power and not stamina. but then again, mosley didn't totally drop floyd with his punch, just stun him a bit.

you can also say that, maybe it's because of the last minute blood testing/s?

[boozeboxer]

Maybe it is because he has his goddamn AARP card.

Don't give the Pac excuse. Mayweather had last minute blood tests too!

You can't state these obvious facts because it means you're not giving floyd credit and you have to give him credit because he's been crying about not getting credit.

Shane looked as tired as Roy Jones in the first tarver fight and it was before Floyd did anything of significance...

The fact that even after the second big blow and the ref broke them, Floyd stumbled across the ring and Shane didn't finish him? I was convinced then that he was too tired to even throw punches and possibly overtrained, which is when I knew the fight was over....I stood up and said "he's about to lose ten rounds in a row.."

I still can't by it though. How can a guy we all have seen fight ( Shane ) just suddenly tire when we have NEVER see it before from him in any other fight.50 some odd fight's and he was completely gassed in four rounds? In his biggest fight to date he just suddenly gets tired and stops throwing punches for the rest of the fight? Goes into survival mode after he had clearly rocked Mayweather? It wasn't as if Mosley landed something heavy than threw a hole shit load of punches and simply ran out of steam. Hell I don't think he threw one punch after that damaging right hand.

It was very strange to watch...Mosley has always hit the other guy back almost immediately after being hit, he is one of the best finishers ever, never tires, in fact he comes on late in fights...the mouth being open was very weird and only suggests overtraining and inactivity...
