Mosley: "Mayweather Fights Hand-Picked Opponents"

[boxing_great]

he has a point

[GRUSTLER]

Forrest had more skill than Mayorga,

yet lost to him twice.


Judah had more skill than Baldomir

but lost to him.



Superior skill set isn't always the determining factor.

The thing that differentiate Mayweather from just being
a skillful fighter is that he using his brain and thinks about
winning first. Mosley is always going to go for the knock
out. From watching both fighters fight for YEARS, Mosley
is not a better Boxer than Mayweather. Mosley is a brawler/
Boxer, who most success comes from fighters standing toe
to toe with him. Cotto showed exactly how to neutralize
Mosley speed. Mosley swings off balance and loses his footing
a lot, i just honestly dont see Mosley as that much of threat
to Floyd! Tough and competitive YES! Beating Floyd..... NO.

So by that token,

Floyd should just retire right?

[GRUSTLER]

and what does 140 have to do with 147?

Floyd was fighting at 147 when Cotto was still improving
at 140. I think a Cotto/Floyd fight was close to happening
but Cotto lost to Antonio Margarito. Clearly in my eyes
Floyd would beat Cotto and I always stood by that. Cotto
reached his peak and Floyd may have too BUT the difference
is Floyd is a better technician than Cotto. Hopefully we get
to see Floyd against Cotto and Mosley next year and put all
debates to rest.

[GRUSTLER]

So by that token,

Floyd should just retire right?

NO, he shouldnt retire because he does have to beat
some top WWs to be considered great in regards to
competition. If Floyd were to retire without facing
any of the top WWs, then my view on him would
change significantly. There is no way he should
be allowed to come back and not fight the best
at 147. I just annalyze fighters styles and to me
Cotto nor Mosley would beat Floyd and Im waiting
to see it to be proven right.

Floyd is not the greatest and can be beat as soon as he gets the balls to fight someone who has a chance to beat him. He needs to fight mosley and cease with all the BS as soon as he was questioned about fighting mosley he starts stuttering and gets defensive and claims he is being disrespected another excuse and way he will use to to get out of fighting mosley, like he did with margarito, he needs to stop fighting all these winnable fights against opponents he knows he will beat and fight some real threats something that he has never done.

I think mosley has the skill, power, and ability to ko him in dramatic fashion, williams also has all the tools to beat him. If he ever wants to be considered the greatest of his era he will have to fight the mosley's, williams, and cotto's, he will never be considered the greatest of his era much less the greatest of all time which is laughable in my opinion, if he doesn't fight and beat these guys period, stop ducking, stop making excuses, stop acting like what you are and that is afraid to fight these guys,and start fighting period or you will never be viewed as the greatest of your era it's as simple as that.

He can't even be considered great at this point because he has never fought anyone of any real significance or anyone that can be considered a real threat he avoids those challenges like the ebola virus, the biggest name on his ledger was an old delahoya who gave him hell, he needs to fight all the real threats and beat them or he can never be considerd great or the greatest of his era and certainly not that ridiculous claim of being the greatest of all time, only a very good fighter at this point until he proves otherwise.

------------------------------
finally someone who sees what i see with regard to Mosley......Again Mosley talks all this ****, yet he was chasing Pac-man(a smaller man) and he's been avoiding Paul Williams like Williams has the swine flu.

So as far as I'm concerned MOSLEY IS A HYPOCRITE!!!

[BALLISTIC]

shane will whoop floyd i believe..

we'll see if floyd takes this fight..or wait for pacman/cotto..which i'm sure he will...

[hugh grant]

Mosely speaks the truth. Hasnt fought any welterweights other than the slow baldomir.
IF PBF wants recognition along the lines of ALi, Duran, SRR and now PAc, he needs to up his game.
