Mosley's Performance

[blegit]

I brought this up in a different thread and I'm not sure if it has been discussed at length elsewhere. Forgive me for same if it has.

Does anyone find it a little fishy that Mosley had difficulty with his stamina in this fight given that this is the only fight where Olympic-style drug testing was imposed?

I'm not putting down Mayweather's performance because either way he fought a near-flawless fight, but Mosley looked not himself. He had the best trainer (imo) in the business giving him great advice in his corner and every indication was that he had a good camp. He was coming off a career-defining win.

Explain to me how Hatton at 147 performed better against Mayweather over ten rounds than Mosley over 12. It's just a little odd.

This is absolutely what I had been thinking since round 4. I just didn't want to comment on it because I am a Mosley fan and I didn't want to look like I was taking away from Mayweather. Mayweather was the better fighter but Mosley never in his career got tired after only round 3. I personally think Mosley has been on the EPO a lot more than what is being portrayed. Why not? It was the same old testing. This time he couldn't be on EPO and coincidentally he is a tired mess after 3 rounds? If this is true I am glad Mayweather demanded the Olympic style testing and boxing needs a lot more cleaning than we expect. I personally know some fighters who are on PEDs and they are not even fighting for big time scenarios. Mosley is my favorite fighter but I don't choose any fighter over what I think is the truth. And I think the truth is that Mosley was not a one time cheater.

Floyd was the far better man no excuses.

What I did not like about Shane was his constant wanting to tap gloves with Floyd, just fight the man and forget the sportsmanship, Floyd punched him as they were talking. Shane also did not adjust his style and did not throw enough punches and let it all go.

I thought that! But then just assumed it was the un-sportsman in me. Then I thought it was probably the ref and his eagerness to "keep it clean" and make them lovers not fighters.

Mosley is a good clean fighter...i believe it was more of the 400 days of inactivity, his age, plus the possible over training suggested by emmanual steward...

He was completely done...and mosely ran cross country coming up as a kid through highschool so for him to tire in the second round is simple as his age...He over trained because of the layoff...
