    Really bro? I don't know why but I just didn't see it that way. I thought that round was more of a lucky shot that surprised May. I felt May was just going to pick him apart. I guess I was right watching how the fight turned out but never expected Mosley to land something the way he did.

    Let me ask this now...since you felt Mosley had PLENTY of chance, what do you think the outcome would be if they both were the same age? Or if they were both 30?

    Be honest, who did you want to win? FLoyd or Oscar?

    I was honestly just hoping for a good fight and a decision. Oscar past it, Floyd out of his best weight, so just let them fight :smoke

    A win that would've been less dominating than it turned out to be. Shane wasn't interested on two separate occasions, brother. Prior to Floyd-DLH. Once Floyd became the marquee draw in the sport, he finally agreed to get in the ring with him.

    Stop lying haha. You really like two guys exactly the same? What did your heart tell you? Were you feeling something towards one just a bit more?

    No seriously. I felt like, Oscar's legacy was already secure, and Floyd has to keep his 0 and sorry but I have a huge hard on for legacy and Floyd needs his 0 and a win over a fellow ATG like Oscar to keep him going. I often find myself cheering for both, like when Shane rocked Floyd I was on mom's ****ing couch cheering for the KTFO :lol:

    I see. I would have loved to see that fight in a different time. I think Mosley would have had a good chance to win but he would have to fight extremely smart. If he could only balance his strength/aggression with better defense. Ultimately I think May being the smarter fighter would probably get him the win. Mosley is not as smart. But I think he had the tools, just not the brain. It would have been a great fight.

    Oh so Mosley is one of your favorites as well?

    I'll ask you the same as NWS but I'll add Oscar. Who would win between FLoyd vs Mosley or Oscar vs Floyd, both at age 30/WELTERWEIGHT?

    I roll with prime Oscar over Floyd at welter and Floyd over Oscar below welter

    Shane at 135 and Floyd at 147.
