That round 2...

[0james0]

No proffesional sportsman who has trained for that long should be tired after two round, regardless of age.

That's the dumbest shit written all week. You obviously have never trained for anything on any level...

No, you have just gone a step above.

Are you telling me that a pro player of any sport, especially after training as hard and calculated as boxers do for so long is acceptable to be gasping for breath after a sixth of the match, when he is probably winning?

The equivilent to fading after 15 minutes in football?

Of course not, because that is why they are professionals and we are not. They should be conditioned enough to last a bit at least. It wasn't as if Floyd had hit him with bombs much at that stage. Floyd is good, but he shouldn't have you gasping after 2 rounds.

If he remains a professional he should be fit enough, if not, he should be retired.

Everyone will agree with that.

You clearly have low expectations of a proffesional on any level

I wasn't even saying Mosley ran out in round 2, I was just saying that was not an acceptable excuse.

He ran out about round 5.

I think Mosely is not at the peak of his game but he is a strong boxer with plenty of speed, stamina and skill. He was well prepared for the fight and in good shape.

He got beat because Floyd beat him.

Even at the end of round 2 Floyd had started coming forward again. He didn't start that in round 3. Heart and skill.

From round 3 on, Floyd walked Shane down, hit him, and befuddled him with his speed. Mosely doing all that nervous movement pretending to feint but never even getting Floyd to take the bait. Floyd didn't fight the boxer; he fought his fight and imposed it on Mosely. Going forward.

Mosely did not "get old" on this night. He'd have beat most anyone else. But he was in with Floyd.

Some of you folks just have to credit Shane with losing (for various reasons) in order to avoid crediting Floyd with winning.

sound pretty silly doing it, too.
