    We'll never know. But since Mosley went up in weight to fight prime DLH I'd say it's Mosley who's not afraid of actually signing the contract.

    No he couldn't he would never be able to outbox PBF. Lesser fighters than PBF beat Oscar remember that.:deal

    Lastly beating on a KO against a guy who's never been knocked down or out who has ATG defense is never a smart thing to do.

    Let's see... Floyd was fighting at 140 during 2004 and 2005..... De la hoya was retired at that time, and had previously fought Hopkins for the Undisputed championship at 160... It was never a realistic fight to be made at that time period, 2007 was the earliest that fight could have happened and it did on May5th 2007 one year after Oscar came back and whooped on Mayorga.

    Mosley fought Oscar in 2000.. Floyd was still campaigning at 130... You're praising Mosley for jumping up 2 weight classes but are claiming Floyd was afraid for not jumping 3 weights to fight oscar at 147, while he was still a 130 pounder?:patsch

    Shane wasn't about signing anything when he hid behind a toothache.

    Ancient Mosley jellylegged Mayweather with a single punch. He landed 1 quality punch the entire fight and almost had him out on his feet.

    Shane was still dangerous.

    Ask Margarito:lol:

    Pac wanted ZERO to do with Shane after he wiped his as.s with Tony.

    It took Mosley 100 flush haymakers to put Margarito down.

    He almost flattened Mayweather with 1 punch.

    Zab Judah I think took the first 4 rounds from Mayweather before he adapted. Zab was considered to be one of the fastest fighters out there. I remember betting a lot on this fight and getting nervous. Those 4 rounds are the whole basis behind Khan begging for a fight Mayweather but unfortunately for Khan, he kept losing at the worst possible time.

    What if Floyd fought Devon Alexander?

    Key word almost.:deal That's not good enough. Even still PBF started walking Mosley down after that and still won the fight going away. PBF beats any version of Mosley he's too smart and too skilled for him.

    Popular misconception, Zab and PBF split the first 4 rounds of that fight and Zab won the 12th.:deal Zab won no more than 3 rounds in that fight.
