Shane Mosley? Seriously?

[deejd]

This is something I still don't understand.

Since when does getting caught twice, and dominating every second of the rest of the fight, mean that he had trouble with Mosley?

Aside from one round, he made that shit look incredibly easy.

You didn't know? That fight was only a four rounder.

[phook]

Dude calls Pac out relentlessly after he KO'd Margarito.

Even says hed fight Pac at his trademark catchweights.

Then he goes on to get destroyed by Mayweather.

Then goes on to get embarassed by Mora.





Now all of sudden Pac steps up and wants to fight him? You seriously have to be kidding me.

If he doesnt fight Mosley the public will think Pac is avoiding black slick fighters.. Thank Bernard Hopkins

It will still come down to one thing though; Pac fighting a guy even older at about eight years his senior, and will probably be 40 instead of 38, but most importantly, he is still coming off a very dominant loss and then very arguably getting beaten by a hack from the ****ing Contender show. The guy is just shot. He looked like he was going to get stopped for the first time against Mayweather and then was so exhausted against Contender guy that he couldn't do anything.

When was the last time Pac fought someone not coming off a loss in their last few fights, and usually bad ones at that? He has the advantage of anyone willing to fight him and some big names out there that would take the fight in two seconds and yet they will fight Mosley after a bad loss and an even worse draw.

What happened to "Mosley is a bit too good" from Roach when he was mentioned as an opponent after the Margarito fight? Well, they realise what is damn obvious to everyone with a brain in that he is shot to **** and won't present any problem.

Bolded: Thats simple homie. They watched the Floyd Vs. Shane fight. Thats all they needed to see.

And if he fights Shane, he's still not proving Hopkins wrong.

I'd love for someone to show me at what point in Mosley's career, he became "slick".

The Mora fight wouldnt hurt..

What does that even mean?The fight I was watching wasthe one where every time Shane went to throw a punch Floyd landed first. I assumed handspeed had something to do with that must have been all technical skill, speed is an unimportant factor on how fast you can deliver a punch. Floyd is a much better fighter than Hopkins ever was and the reason for that is that hes athletically superior. If Floyd had been the less athletically gifted fighter you feel as if the fight would have been exactly the same?

Richardson and Mosley even said that they were focusing on how to deal with Mayweather's timing. Mosley was thought to have been just as fast, if not more, than Mayweather while also possessing the check in the power category. Just because you beat somebody to the punch doesn't mean your more athletic than them; anticipation can work for or against you.

And I disagree. LOL @ winged it. Please. Jones was a master of technique. Threw perfect hooks, perfect uppercuts, combinations. Good jab. Parried as good as any boxer today. Amazing footwork. Winged it? Yeah, ok.

Of course he winged it! Just like Emanuel Augustus, one and the same!!

shane isn't slick. why do you guys think every black fighter is slick?

John the beast mugabi...oh, he must be slick!!

Go watch cotto-mosley. Miguel was actually the one moving and outboxing shane.

Mosley is a fast slugger with power. Mosley is a faster version of antonio margarito.

[Chief2ndzOnly!]

The Mora fight wouldnt hurt..

Naw. You right Reed homie. The Mora fight was just a confirmation number for the cashing of a memorabilia check in 20 years. Thats all.

[Chief2ndzOnly!]

Of course he winged it! Just like Emanuel Augustus, one and the same!!

Come on bruh. We all know that if Augustus' career was managed properly that he would've been an elite fighter, and not a true Boxing fan's favorite lesser-known fighter.
