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

[Boxingholic]

biggest mistake on most fighters is always being an aggressor fighting Flyod. Shane should stand middle ring, and call out Flyod. Like Pac did to Cotto. I can see Flyod get distracted and getting booed at.

he's right... speed and defense won't prevent KO... but floyd's ability to adjust on the fly or his ring IQ will prevent everything shane does

[trainhard_187]

People forget, Floyds last three fights were against, lightweight Marquez, Head first Hatton and washed up Delaquitter.. Shane is an elite Welterweight and Floyd has never been in the ring against an elite Welterweight.. I see Shane giving Floyd problems and possibly taking a win over Mayweather..

That's more wishful thinking then actual fact. Mayweathers D and speed is the reason why mosley can't knock him out. Judah is faster and stronger and couldn't phase Floyd. Cotto outboxed Mosley!!!!!!!!!

thats what i keep going back to. cotto was not bothered by shanes power and floyd has much better defense than cotto

Naz is startin to look silly. He started out so wise and smart and now look at him. He says if Mayweather is the greatest of all time and Mosley knocks him out then what does that make Mosley? If people say that Robinson and Ali are the greatest why isn't anyone saying then what does that make the people who beat Robinson and Ali. Naz needs to be slapped. IF he wants to take it there if shane wins. Then what does that make Forrest and Wright and Cotto for that matter? And we could go on and on and on. Naz should know better than to bring that weak ass argument. And for the record Mosley is not KOing Floyd. Just get ready for them to blame it on the layoff or age as to why Mosley got dominated.

tweezy, you make some very good points. to be honest i dont think about the men that beat sugar ray or ali. and no one calls them the best ever. naz is just trying to give his boxer some hope. he will need it on may 1st.

BOY's WHISKERS, or lack of same,
Will be the STORY, MAY1!!!

Fired UNC ROG, and rehired SR.

Sr. is much better at ALIBIs
and EXCUSES than ROGer!!!

hey panama, it appears you have made a career of hating floyd.

i suppose handing margarito his only KO loss doesnt mean nothing then to say about mosleys power?.

everyone go re watch floyd vs oscar.

see how easy oscar in certain points of the fight manages to jab and outland/outwork floyd here and there,how floyd doesn't defend all that well against a past it oscar who doesnt fire off like he used too,he isnt as fast,powerful or versatile as mosley,shane wont tire out and hesitate like oscar did.

Shane will look younger if anything. hele box smart,doing different things to confuse floyd and stop floyd being comfortable and make him all bothered and confused,hele have sharp punches,fast combinations,good movement of the upper body and good footwork ring generalship.

shane will look to get off first everytime,land hard jabs and get straight right and left combinations landed and then not stay right infront of floyd all the time,hele be able to counter nicely,work the body well too,even make floyd come to him and fight floyd of the backfoot.

once he stops floyd getting off first and stops any flow of rhythm range or comfortable timing that floyd likes to use then shane will come on strong and outland and hurt floyd with speed and power hes never experienced before.

well all the things you say shane is going to do is all good except, shane does none of the things you describe. shane is a puncher not a boxer, shane is very aggresive and gets at his opponet not wait for them to come to him. shane is willing to take several punches to give his own. floyd has never looked confused in a match, NEVER. shane is a good fighter and a fav of mine. but your post is more wishful thinking thinking than fact. but hey i could be wrong(NOT) we will see on may first.

O Rly? You ethugs are hilarious! Do you realize how easy that is to say over the internet? Here let me show you. I'll slap the **** outta you if I ever met you...real rap!! See I told ya.

ethugs, man i cant stop laughing at that. im going to borrow that one. ethugs that is ttooooooo funnnny

[Silencers]

I just hope Mosley doesn't start thinking that once he manages to hit Mayweather, Mayweather is going to fall. A lot of fighters have thought that against opponents and more often than not they end up losing.

MOSLEY is a vet that has fought pretty much every style there is. He's a much improved fighter in the BRAIN department as well since firing his dad. He won't waste anything all night like MAYWEATHER thinks and will punish MAYWEATHER with vicious body punching from round 1 on. 1 of MAYWEATHER'S weaknesses is that he gives you his body and doesn't use his legs because he can't!!!! MOSLEY will win this fight! WHO WANTS TO BET? AND HOW MUCH????? MESSAGE ME!

dont use his legs? first he runs all night now he dont use his legs? if naz had more time he could do something special with shane. but once the fight starts he will go back to his bad habits. shane has always been a good body puncher and its true he has faced a multitude of styles. but i've never observed shane switching strategy in mid fight. floyd also has faced many styles and has the ability to change gameplans in mid fight. shane has a chance but i see floyd out boxing shane to a complete ud.
