I have no doubt that Floyd brutalizes Pac. Pac has nothing.. I mean nothing close to the kind of shot that Shane landed. Not the angle.. not the reach. The shot came over top of Floyds guard not underneath like how Pac throws(being shorter with short arms). It was not a straight shot or not a looping shot. It was Nazims strategy to develop that punch specifically for a KO or to hurt Floyd. This punch is also the reason Hearns would destroy Floyd. Not no god damned foom foom foom idiot pacquiao. Its not like ANY flurry of shots from Shane or his speed gave Floyd trouble. Only the long jab to the body and overhand right.
Nothing but praises for Floyd. He was brilliant last night. The moment Moseley become tentative, i knew the fight was over.
The other beauty of yesterdays fight is that "casual" fans got to see what "I" consider to be real boxing. Floyd's been criticized by the MORONS and HATERS here for not being a hard puncher (as if hard punching is all there is to boxing) but someone who was watching the fight with me (a woman mind you) made the observation when Shane was staying on the outside bouncing. "Oh he doesn't want to rush in because he's afraid of being hit back(countered). Every time Shane punches, the return punch comes back faster". Basically Mayweather put on a counter punching clinic last night. To all those assholes here who've made claims of him being feathered fisted and all that nonsense, you frankly are SILENCE now. I said that Shane's excessive clinching would be his undoing and sure enough, what did he do when hit?? Try to tie up Floyd. Lastly, can we end the excuse of Shane being shot?? Shane wasn't shot when he fought Margarito so why attempt to minimize Floyd's win now?? Some of you will never get it so keep manufacturing the excuses..
The beauty of last night's fight was that Floyd turned Mosley's agenda of being the aggressive one into his own agenda. Round 3: Floyd came out aggressive when Mosley expected him to run. This caught Mosley off guard, which he failed to adjust to. It just shows how dangerous of a fighter Floyd is. A couple smiles in the corner after absorbing a tremendous shot by Mosley, and he comes out and walks Mosley down for 10 rounds.
i agree. he deserves praise for fighting like paying fans want a fighter to fight. i will no longer call him a coward as he showed courage under fire. excellent work, floyd.
absolutely, this is what pleased me most about the fight. no safety first tactics, no negativity, he was willing to stand in front of the the bigger harder hitting man and beat him down. he answered a lot of critics and sceptics fighting this style. it was like a throwback to his years in the lower weight classes and i'm glad to see him prove he can fight in that style with the bigger men.
Toe to toe? Then why was the fight so boring? Floyd could have beaten Shane's ass pillar to post, but that's not Floyd's temperament and that's why he needs WWE to sell fights to casuals. Shane has a granite chin, but I still think Floyd could have beaten him down and forced a TKO
What are you talking about BORING?? May I ask what makes a fight "interesting" to you?? You sound like someone frankly where if a fight isn't Gatti vs. Ward trilogy (where guys use their faces to defend shots) that it doesn't suit your fancy.
