    Floyd would have dominated Mosley easier had they fought in 2000

    So much talk about Shane's energy and speed was better years ago, but so was Floyd. I watched the Shane vs Oscar fight 5 times today and i see Shane much quicker, but i also see a lot of load up right hands over and over and over. He"s not gonna beat 2000, 2001, 2002 Floyd off the same right hand over and over. He might land it early and stun Floyd and Floyd will be like damn good shot, now its time for 12 rounds of kickin yo ass.

    2000 Floyd had more combinations and took more chances. Had he had Shane in the same type of trouble it would be OVER.

    Shane wouldn't have gotten tired after 3 rounds in 2000. That makes a huge difference.

        Was he on steroids in 2000-2001?

        That makes a huge difference.

          Mosley would've had a huge size advantage back in 2000. It took a long time for Mayweather to grow into a solid-sized welterweight. Not really a fair fight.

            Nah, Floyd was in his prime at 130-135. Floyd fought at 130 in 2000 and would've won against Mosley or anyone else.

              But Mosley was fighting at WW in 2000. And he wasn't some undersized WW. He was a huge lightweight who went to WW, and actually outweighed DLH on fight night unofficially in their 2000 bout.

              You got one fighter who's fighting at 130, weighs in the mid 130s on fight night, against a guy who's campaigning at 147 and weighs in the mid 150s on fight night.

              The timing was just bad, as there was only a short time frame in which the two of them could've fought in 1998-99 before Mosley left 135, I guess the best time the two could've fought would've been in 2006-07 at 147. The fight is probably more competitive but I still see it being a clear UD win for Mayweather.

                And he was most likely on steroids

                    it would have been closer....much much closer IMO......I would give Floyd the edge because he was faster of hand and foot and his jab was even better at 135 than it is now........(see Corrales fight at 30 to see floyd put on a clinic about how to use the jab)

                    but Shane was also faster and just better overall at 35.........


                    Shane wins the first fight (more experience than Floyd at this time)....Floyd adjusts and wins the rematch and then the rubber match.
