Comments Thread For: Mosley: Mayweather's Defense, Speed Won't Prevent KO

[Rome-By-Ko]

Yes agreed but I wasn't going to mention PBF losing because I have bets on him to win so I am not entertaining thoughts of him losing.

Not entertaining it an't gonna stop it from happening.

SSM needs to land something big in the opening rounds or Floyd will hve his dancing shoes and make him look silly all night. I completely agree with the post regarding Shane having no alternative if he can't overpower or beat another fighter to the punch with speed. From a technical perspective I can't see Mosley being able to make any effective change mid fight like he may have too.Thats why I think he doesn't have any early success (opening 3-4 rounds) the fights over. Against any other fighter I'd never say that about Mosley but imo Floyds just going to be way to slick for him. Mosley will become frustrated after 4 rounds, not be able to pin Floyd with lateral movement(have no alternative) and Floyd will pick him off for fun. Floyd won't make mistakes defensively even on the odd occassion Mosley may get close in the championship rounds when he's desperate. There is a question mark too in terms of how gassed Mosley is going to be after the middle rounds. Alot of fighters seem to underestimate how much it takes out of them when chasing Floyd and the accumulative effects of his counter punching. Another Floyd masterclass on the way (I so hope I'm wrong cause me head says Floyd but my heart says Mosley).

I hope Shane Mosley brings that 1998 Sugar. That's the only way Shane will win

there will be ring rust and a lot of obstacles for ssm considering his age and layoff. fortunately he was highly active with a training camp up to jan for berto so that will be helpful.
i hope he follows the game plan to a T because even tho mayweather is a superior boxer, there are ways to win rounds against him.

agreed. mosley gotta land something big and force pbf into a defensive shell. then the fight is just a matter of outworking floyd.

I like and respect Shane Mosley but Floyd Mayweather Jr
is going to tire Mosley out and frustrate him. Shane is going
to be loading up on those big right hands, missing and paying
for it.

[MR.CHICANITO]

lets see whos gonna fack up who!!

well i guess we will all have to wait until saturday night to see what fighter makes good on his promises and i am so excited to see if sugar shane mosley can seize the moment against the great mayweather

That's a very likely scenario.

[twosweethooks]

That's a very likely scenario.

Everyone has an opinion. Thats cool. I like it just fine.

We all come from different angles. Too numerous to give , they've all been heard.

The real reason I see Mosley KO'ing Mayweather are due to the lack of something I have not seen in Mayweather.

I may totally be fooled and come back here after the fight and admit how wrong I was. I can do that, I don't have a problem saying I was wrong. The real one who has to prove me is wrong is Mayweather himself.

All I want is a fair fight.

No cuts on either guy.

No Head butts, a fair and honest ref who will NOT interfere but will be fair and Just and let the two men fight.

I want three honest judges fair and honest without fear or favor of man. NO ROBBERY that night. NONE ! NOT favoring the money which goes with Mayweather, get it ? I am saying if it is close and Mosley did enough then give it to Mosley, if its close and Mayweather did enough then give it to Mayweather.

What will tell the tale for me is when Mosley nails Mayweather with that first big punch not a light right or left hook but a killer punch and see the reaction from Mayweather. Will he smile like he did with JMM and come back putting Mosley on his butt ?

My concerns for Mayweather has always been just three things.

First and not the most important is the desire to put away his opponent at the WW level. He could not put away a small guy. He always says the same thing , I am gonna destroy Oscar etc....... now he is saying that about Mosley. No good.

2nd he is Jykle Hyde . He fought like crazy in the lower weights , but over the past 5 years he has ducked all the top WW's. Cotto in the prime of his life, Margo, Mosley , Clottey, all should have been put away by the fists of Mayweather LONG AGO, but not him, he has yet to fight one and the one his is facing in a few days is gonna bout kill him and he knows it.

3rd, because of one and two especially two he has caused me to think he has no balls in the trenches. He don't want to fight he just wants the money. That always catches up with fighters. He knows this and thats the reason he has ducked so many fighters in their prime. My main concern for Mayweather is that I am saying I see NO HEART.

Mayweather has to prove me wrong. I can't youtube or buy any of his fights from the past 5 years , it sickens me to watch him waste his talents on journeymen , old washed up fighters and little people.

Concerns for Mosley:

My only concern for him is his age. He may always be a step behind. He may not be able to put Mayweather in the corner and may be countered to death.

I was giving up on Mosley the past few years because of his dad trainer. It sickened me to see him lose the way he did to Cotto. When the old fire came back to Mosley in the 9 th or so round and he just started turning it loose and winning it wasn't because of his daddys instructions it was because of his lack of instructions. Daddy Mosley in the last several fights did not give any instructions period. Mosley is salvaged from ruin by Naazim !!!!

Naazim alone has pulled out the old fire from Mosley and made him fresh, his dad did teach him how to fight but Naazim resurrected the old Mosley.

He is a fighter deluxe. He comes to fight not run. He is fast enough to tag Mayweather repeatedly. He has the Heart to stay if he gets tagged he can come back putting you on your ass. He is smart and quick. He has the skills. Great body puncher to slow Mayweather done then what ? May gets KO'd

He will test the heart of Mayweather and who has the biggest heart will win the fight.

I will not back off of my prediction. I am quite settled. If I am wrong then I will gladly come back here and take all the **** you want to pour out.

Mosley by KO or makes Mayweather Quit in the later rounds.

thankyou, smiles
