    No because 40year old Mosley gassed in 3rd.
    He stood his ground didn't really push Mosley back.

    It was a classic thriller that one..

    I love the list btw.

    Kevin Johnson might be fighting Mike Perez. This should elevate Perez to get a good fight.

    Mayweather-Mosley wasnt boring!! I enjoyed that fight. Pac-Mosley was boring and pissed me off. Not pacs fault, Mosleys fault.

    Oh shut up. Just because your a boxer does not make you a runner. Boxing does not equate to running.

    1. Floyd - He didnt run from Mosely because Mosely is a Fossil.

    2. Muhammad Ali - Except when he wanted to prove something

    3. Pauli "Terrible Boxer" Malignaggi

    4. Mosely - Skates now because hes so old

    5. Miguel Cotto - when hes getting that ass whooped

    He stood his ground in the first 2 rounds also :patsch

    Maybe he looked at Tape and came up with that gameplan.

    Also he cut the ring off on Mosley and had him in the corner more than he was against Pacquiao

    Haye didn't run against Wlad, he was more sort of elusive with head and body movement. He did run big time against Valuev however.

    I don't think he belongs on a top 5 list to be honest.

    Why do you panic when I talk about Paulie?lol
    Every fighter have his style and he have his own. With Pillows in his 2 hands and a couple of surgery, let's face it, he cannot go at war. Honestly, I find these kind of fighter smart, so I'm not complaining. Whatever people are saying about guy like Andre Dirrell, as an example, I believe he is the best SMW. So, when we say runner, it doesn't mean being scare, it's about being smart, controling the jab and distance and counterpunching. Don't take this as an insult!
