    the biggest dog in the division is Pac bro. Check the ring rankings. Mosley is #2. (not sure actually, cant get on ring website now)

    Still, a fight against the #2 fighter in the division, gotta give Floyd some props here.

    I wonder if Floyd and GBP will ask Mosley to agree for Okympic style drug testing?

    You are an idiot if you really believe this.

    Floyd will be happy if Shane looks great and knocks out Berto. The Mosley/May fight on 5/1 will be much bigger leading to much more $$$ for Floyd if that happens.

    A weak performance from Mosley on 1/30 affects the drawing power of the 5/1 fight and thus takes away $$$ from Mayweather.

    wouldn't it be a great fight anyways, regardless of the outcome. I thought losses dont mean ****?

    You people are hypocrites.

    If berto won and floyd fought and beat him. What would you say?

    It will go something like this: "oh well he still ducked sugar shane in the WW division, who had the STYLE MATCH up to beat him":lol:

    Floyd cant win.

    what do you mean "you people"?

    good point, its a great fight regardless if Mosley wins or loses. But its a greater fight if Mosley wins.

    I never said losses don't mean anything, but they don't mean everything either. Its a grey zone. Most boxing fans see everything in black in white, but i don't see it that way.

    Also, I don't think Mosley has the style matchup to beat Floyd. I think Cotto would've been his most difficult fight style-wise.

    If he does fight him and your one of those fans that said he never would u should keep ur mouth shut and stay out the conversations and debates as you said he wouldn't fight him in the first place

    I'll wait until this fight gets signed before being too excited. As a big mayweather fan this is a fight he needs and a fight i've long wanted to see.
