It just doesn't seem to make any sense to me. Maybe Mosely had his glory/fortune moment at that one point and afterward it had simply passed.
    That's why Mosley never got any closer after round 2 cuz he nearly KOd him "by mistake" IMO. Whatever. It's a moot point.
    So after the 1st well landed Mosely punch, why was Mosely on Mayweather as quickly as he could get over there to try for the finish?? If he wanted Mayweather to win he wouldnt try for the finish.. and try he did.
    ...and that's your oppinion. Mine was stated.

    But opinions have to be based on as much logic as possible or else they may become detached from reality. The events that occured in the fight happened for a reason. One cannot ignore that which doesn't fit the hypothesis.

    For your part, you could say "Maybe Mosley forgot the script for a moment. Lost in the instant, he tried to go for the kill."

    Just so you know POB, my above post was aimed at the OP, not you. While I completely disagree with your opinion, at least you watched the fight to form it.

    I got that...

    I understand why some would be pissed.

    In fact, I'd be pissed because I hate the inclination that money weighs a fight to one side and I really hope I'm wrong. We'll never know, though.

    I think that Mosley went in to land a solid punch and caught him a bit too hard and then made it look good and let off the gas for the rest of the fight.

    Just an oppinion. I even dispise the fact that it's in my head but I'm just being honest. Feinting and allowing Mayweather is for the rest of the fight was ridiculous.

    I have, nor will I ever take away from Floyd's gifts. I, in fact, though not a fan, never dog him.

    But my oppinion is my own to have.

    I had to go rewatch at least that part in round 2. Mosely would of if he could of. He wanted it. Mayweather did all the tying up he could to keep it from happening.

    Note: Mayweather had (prior to the hard shots) been keeping his left hand extremly low for extended periods of time. After getting hit, he only dropped the left hand for very short momments. (at least when he was in range of Mosley)

    Ie: Mayweather learned his lesson. He hadnt fully respected Moselys ability till then. (so it appeared to me)

    Not going to argue with you or try to change your mind, but rather bring up a few things.. We've seen Floyd do this to people in the past, he's left them gun shy because of his counters.. Shane also through hard punches later in the fight and missed.. he loaded up on a few, and you can't really miss that close on purpose if he wasn't really trying to KO mayweather..

    besides all of the physical stuff in the ring.. i can't see shane taking such a smaller % of money, and talking the trash that he did publicly about how mayweather won't beat him, and then throwing the fight? There are too many parties involved, and shane didn't get an absolute enormous amount of money to throw one of the biggest fights of his career. There was a rematch clause in the fight, if Floyd DID get KO'd in that second round, i'd see an immediate rematch of the fight, which would do HUGE money, then if mayweather wins the rematch and even possibly a third fight, also, the Pac fight would still be huge a year or two from now.. plus it's not like pac is undefeated and it would be undefeated vs undefeated.

    i just think there was too much involved in a mega fight like this for it to be fixed.. again, not arguing, but just understanding where you're coming from and trying to make light of it.
