Shane Mosley Vs. Thread?

Williams, i just dont see anyone beating Williams

 

he beats them all with the possible maybe likely exceptions of williams&mayweather their 50/50 fights

 

I've voted for the 3 I think can potentially beat him, not who necessarily will though if fights were to come off.

And that's Paul Williams, Floyd Mayweather and Miguel Cotto. In that order aswell. I'd make him a slight favourite against Cotto, but only slight - something like 55-45 in his favour. Toss-up really. Floyd 60-40 against, Williams 70-30 against.

 

No one is beating Williams at welterweight.

 

i voted the opposite sorry guy

 

Listen Philla I'm sorry, I know you are a Pacquiao fan but how on earth is he beating a fully-fledged, quick, powerful, iron-chinned Shane Mosley at 147?

 

I am not sure the real man at the WW division will be decided for some time, this catch weight Pac/Floyd/Cotto business could throw a spanner in the works.

Cotto rematch is pretty much 50/50, maybe leaning towards Mosley as he would probably fight more aggressively, earlier on. Williams would likely be too rangey and active for Mosley. I would lean towards Floyd, but he has never fought someone with the size, strength, power and speed of Mosley, a Mosley win would not surprise me.

 

on points.

Mosley is getting old. His reflexes are fading. Fast fighters that are hard to find are exactly the type of fighters that old guys needs to avoid.

 

He's still quick as hell. Even Hatton managed to close the gap against Pac at times, he just couldn't do anything when inside. Mosley has a far better chin than Hatton, he's far quicker and far, far more powerful.

Pac's chin will NOT hold up for 12 rounds against a guy like Mosley at 147. No way in hell he survives 12.

 

Pac's defense is underrated. He is not an easy target and rarely gets hit clean. Mosley 2009 is not "far far quicker" than Hatton, although i agree that he's far more skilled and more powerful. Hatton managed to close the gap, but Hatton is one of the best fighters in the sport at closing the gap. That's his bread and butter. Mosley has never been that kind of fighter.

I don't think Mosley can take out Pac. Maybe he can outpoint him though by making him too gunshy due to his power and counters. But lets be real here, Pac is the best JrWW in the world by a fair distance despite being kind of small for that weight. WW is only 1 division up from that. I don't think Mosley or anyone else can knock Pacquao out at 147 & under.

 

:good

 

lets just hope the fight comes off. All I'm saying is don't risk your $$ on Mosley. :smoke

 

if this fight gets made you're in for another shocker.
