i gotta give it to you amay, you make it hard to argue with you. but on may2nd im going to give you the blues when shane gets beat down.

haha

if floyd wins there will be nothing but respect and props from me

..but the odds are against him..long lay-off, he is 39 with a quick hands but very stiff. lateral movements are not as great as Jr. He has a good trainer but does he think like Roach, who knows.
Come fight night, Sugar is the hungrier fighter with a lot to prove a win here will set his retirement plan plus a rematch or Pac mega fight. Sugar needs to forget 12 rounder and just focus on a 5 round match. Fight goes past 8..win will go to Jr..Sugar will get tired chasing Jr after 6.

mosley. Is not that ****** to chase all night

mosley. Is not that ****** to chase all night

i agree, he wont be chasing at all, people think he will but no one beats floyd chasing him around.

i see shane laying back quiet often as he scores with activity, stands back and makes floyd come forward.

I think Shane and lot of other people are overstating his power in this fight. People for some reason seem to think that Mayweather can't take a punch. An since we are all always comparing fights and fighters lets look at this. Does anyone think that Cotto has a better chin than Floyd? Was Cotto not able to take Shane's shots cleanly thru 12 rds? Yes he was hurt but he finished on his feet and won no less. This is the same Cotto that was buzzed and almost KOed by both Judah at 147 and Corley at 140. The same fighters that landed good shots on Floyd (though Judah never really hurt him just knocked him off balance and should have been given then knockdown). Floyd also fought both of them before Cotto did. My point is that IMO Floyd's chin is just as good as Cotto's if not better and if you add in the fact that he WILL NOT be caught cleanly nowhere near as many times as Cotto was in his fight with Shane how can we say Shane will break him down and hurt him? Also people keep saying Floyd has been fighting smaller fighters for years is straight hogwash. He's been moving up in weight for years. Only Hatton and JMM moved up to face him. Everyone else he moved up to face or was already at the weight. Hell Judah was THE world welterweight champion one fight before he and Floyd fought.

Also Shane and alot of other people talk about how Floyd has never been in the ring with a fighter as fast or big and strong like him and how his speed will be a big factor. Well lets talk about the flipside. When was the last time you've seen Mosley in the ring with a fighter as fast and skilled as floyd? I don't even think you can find a video on youtube with shane fighting a fast fighter, the first fight with DLH maybe but he is not faster or more skilled then Floyd. Clearly Floyd has been in with a faster fighter in Judah who he handled well in the end and Judah damn sure didnt get gassed because of lack of training. Floyd broke him down and took his will to win from him. What about Floyd's timing and movement? What about his accurate punches? The only thing he can say is that he's faced harder punchers but I also think Floyd hits harder then people believe, especially hard enough to make you think about what your doing when fighting him. Probably not enough to KO Mosley though LOL. If Floyd somehow does stop him it will be due to accumulation of punches or cuts.

Let's take a look hmmm let me see ok.Zab is not on the same level as Floyd Hoya or Mosley which is elite **** he is not really even worldclass IMHO.Zab is very overated.Has May ever fought a tall fighter(That really fights tall not like corrales)Like a Forest or a Winky a fight who was all together bigger then him I will say last time was JLC.We never got a chance to see him fight Cotto Margas or even a Spinks or Mayroga right?So there is alot to be said about a guy who fought at WW and biggest fight so far have come to Judah Baldy and Hatton come on.Oh and as far as power go's Mosley has power and speed one things for sure May is going to hit Cleanly and he is going to be in a fight.People think when Mosley talks of his power being the difference he means he gonna try to knock him out.Mosley jab is hard and might make May not want to thorw for fear of getting counter.Why is that hard to believe?Have'en said that let me say this lol Mosley 11th KO.

. Haha mosley does not have hard jab it's more of a pawing range finder. And all together bigger? It's not floyds fault he has long arms lol gimme me a break. Plus DLH is even taller than mosley at 5'11 to 5'9 and he was
heavier at 154. Also Shane does not fight like a tall fighter. He doesn't us his jab like tall fighter (verron forest) does it again is a poking pawing range finder that will be countered by Floyd. Again check the cotto fight where mosley was beaten by a smaller fighter. Cotto is no taller than Floyd is. Size isn't everything if not used correctly.

Everyone in here should know that Floyd is an excellent distance fighter. His entire game is distance and timing. This is why Floyd backs up and leads guys into his punches; you follow Floyd around, you lose.

Mosley will be all up on Floyd all night long (if he is smart), smothering him and pressuring him up against the ropes. Shane will likely be playing the role of the bully in there and should be aggressive all the time; when you lay back after you land a punch on Floyd, you get tagged. Punch, and punch some more or punch and move or punch and hold, either way there needs to be secondary action after the initial punch.

Should be a great fight and I expect Mosley to be the obvious aggressor

I can agree too that in parts.First to underestimate Mosley jab is a big mistake.Mosley out jab Hoya who has a far better jab then Mayweather.Mayweather has long arms but he still has never fought a tall fight like Forest No?This so called Speed fighter you talking about that May beat lost to who Baldy?And his best win was against Spinks a non elite?You know I dig May but you follow blindly I know what Mosley brings to the table because he has tested him self against bigger opponents.Has truly tested him self at every weight he was at. Has Floyd?His resume compared to Mosley's is not even comparable at WW.May 1 is gonna prove alot and we gonna see for sure now what May is all about win or lose.
