That round 2...

[Taeth]

have you ever gone out running one day when you're feeling fine and its a nice sunny day and you ate your wheaties. Your mind is totally up for the task but all of a sudden you hit a wall, now you know you can go faster because you've done it before but for some reason the body just isn't responding. That's what happened to Shane. Had nothing to do with floyd because he didn't do anything to cause it he just exploited it. This "it" whatever it was just zapped shane of everything after the 2 round he looked gassed and spent the rest of the fight searching for his energy.

give me a fucking break, everytime shane tried to get off he was either countered or beaten to the punch thats why he looked lost, he couldn't get anything off.

Also Mayweather was stunned, but not that badly. People making way too big of a deal out of this. IMO Corley stunned him just as badly, but Oscar who hit Floyd flush with a left hook at the end of their fight didn't even phase Floyd. Sure Floyd covered up, but once that barrage was done Floyd adapted like he did against Judah and dominated.

What fight did you watch? That fight was filled with faints... (I'm going to hit you and then, nothing by mouth like school kids in the playground but old) it was nearing the point of being pathetic. Not that far off from Jones/Hopkins.

The fight I went to. Mayweather did far more than Hopkins did against Jones and he landed way more effective punches than he even did against Juan Manuel Marquez. Floyd really gave a beating to Mosley and him a lot of times with punches that looked like they bothered Mosley.

Floyd nearly went down after the second big shot, just managed to gather himself before his legs gave way. Unreal heart though, I couldn't believe he started firing back at Mosley while he was backed up against the ropes and hurt. Fair play to him, I think he crushed Shane's spirit by coming out so aggressive in the 3rd round.

You have your head so far up floyd's ass you have nothing but shit coming out of your pores. Everything you say is Floyd is god this and that...Maybe you can go watch the fight in slow motion, jerk off to floyd and ellerbe in the corner, then maybe once you get the baby batter off your brain you can see that shane was gassed before floyd started to do anything of significance..

I have watched that second round several times now and it is fun to watch. Floyd really buckled with that second large shot. If only Mosley was able to sustain it. He looked subdued but effective in round one and in the second it was as if we had a real fight on our hands. Of course Floyd made his adjustments to stop it happening again, but Mosley wasn't the same after that point. Either he was spent trying to find the stoppage or it was in his head that only a big punch would suffice from then on out, probably both those things. But from that point on the fight had returned to Floyd and he was the man in control again.

Mosley refused to work any of the basics. Where was the jab that we were promised? I seldom saw it. It was almost as if the round that sprang the fight into life had sucked away all of Mosley's will to force the win. Mosley didn't throw much but when he did it was strange pitty patter punches. I thought the corner advice was excellent, but Mosley didn't convert those words into actual practice. It was an odd showing.

Basically Mosley hit him with his best shot and he somehow stayed upright and rode out the round.

That alone can beat a fighter mentally

That and when you keep searching for that 1 perfect punch and you hesitate that makes it easy for someone as great as Floyd to outbox you.




I still hate the motherfucker though

[Jesse James]

Shane hit Margarito with bigger shots than that, and repeatedly. The fact that Tony was never hurt until the 8th round didn't seem to discourage Shane then.

....Margarito was easier to hit. It may have been give and take until Shane hurt him but all Shane was doing after the 2nd was taking a beating.

I thought Shane might have 1 last hurrah in him for the Championship rounds like he did vs Mayorga but once again it was vs a guy that was easy to find and wasn't countering sharply

I don't ever remember Floyd being hit like he was hit in the second. He was definitely in trouble after that shot, so he had to hang on. He really impressed me with how he came back from that, and i think Mosely just worked himself out of his game plan. In one of the 24/7 episodes i think it's Roger Mayweather who said Mosely would be very jittery in his motions, and sure enough he was. He was just searching and searching for a opening but didn't want to get countered so he just looked like his arms were having siezures. My hats off to Floyd, great fight.

[ono]

I thought he was more buzzed against Corley to be honest.

Gotta wonder if Floyd was right. Was it the PED's keeping Mosley young? Is that the reason Mosley couldn't pull the trigger? Even if PED's didn't give him an advantage physically was the physiological effect enough to for Mosley to doubt himself? For what ever reason the Mosley that fought Margarito wasn't there last night.

[Pugilistic]

Two huge shots.

Two huge shots.

Fuck, I never noticed how bad that 2nd shot was, it was right clean on the temple, how did he stay up from that?

[Spicoli]

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.

superb conditioning and underated toughness.

[Howlin Mad Missy]

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.
