    Great performance against Mosley.


    But please stop fighting old men(JMM, DLH, Mosley) or guys that don't belong at 147(Hatton, JMM)!

    i promised everyone who i debate on this topic that i would not hate on floyd even if mosley started to show his age.


    That is the risk with fighting mosley if he would have won too easily they wud have said he was too old, if he did not they would have said he was ducking.

    Mosley wanted the fight, floyd had no choice but to fight him. If mosley never challenged floyd, then PBF wud not have had to choose him as an opponent.


    They i approach it is the following:

    -Floyd still gets his accolades for being number 1, he showed skills.
    -Without descreting Floyd, Mosley looked shot to pieces before floyd even got to him.

    Thank You! Fighters with rare talent, skill and dedication like Floyd should really challenge themselves! Fight Paq , fight Williams. Get crazy man, and give boxing fans some thrills.
    I feel Roy Jones was really stingy with his talents. Why did he stop at Ruiz? Why did he never fight Michealzewski?
    In the past , great fighters always went whole hog. Featherweight champion Henry Armstrong skipping two weight divisions (four today) to challenge and win the undisputed welterweight championship.Billy Conn , a super middleweight by todays standards, taking on a dominant , all time great heavyweight champion in Joe Louis.
    Surely, with all the talk of being the best ever , Floyd can still do what Roy wouldn't , and most fighters just can't. Anything less robs fans of classic fights , and fighters of their all time legacy.
