38 year old Mosley = 39 year old Mosley

[casian72]

Mosely that FMJ fought= 38 years old, #1 WW and #3 P4P, WW champion and coming off a career rejuvenating KO win over then champ Marg. But still at the end of his career.

Mosely that Pac will fight= 39 years old, #5 WW not in P4P rankings(top 10), not a champion, coming off embarrassing loss to FMJ and gift draw to Mora in which he look horrible. And also should be retired.

Those who cannot see that those two fights took what was left of Mosley are not seeing reality. And its a sad state of affairs that the boxing world is allowing this for money. Even though this is a contact sport where people get hurt, Mosley's chances of serious injury are a lot higher because of his age and his diminished abilities.

He only went up 7 pounds. He even came in at 148 which indicated that he had to train down to 142. His speed was the same.

going up in weight also means you gotta face fighters who can take more punches than in the lower weight.

marquez has zero advantages going in against floyd as it was, and he still got cheated in the weight.

floyd's win against floyd is not anything more than a tune up.

14 months without a fight before facing Mayweather. Almost of 2 months of training against Berto, figtht cancelled, rest a couple fo weeks, then 2 months of training for Mayweather. Bascially, overtraining.

Mosley is the same fighter. Floyd didn't do anything Winky and Vernon hadn't done, it's just giving the right opponent (Vargas, Margarito etc) Shane will look like a beast.

Put him in with a boxer with movement/defense then he will look his age.

Truth be told, if you take away the knockout, Mosley looked worse against Mayorga than he did against Mora.

Still I feel he was a top 3 WW when he fought Floyd and is still a top 5 WW even at this stage of his career.

Floyd said it himself.
