    Maybe he wanted him to make him respect his boxing skill

    when did floyd claim he was gonna "come forward" or "press the attack" in a fight???:huh than he dont..

    bottom line is floyd gave his gameplan before the shane fight and was laughed at..

    Than when he actually performs and stays behind his gameplan he gets excuses made about him..

    so let me get it right...most fans laughed when Floyd said before the Mosley fight "we gonna press the attack and use inches and timing to beat Shane"....so than everyone gives a "lmfao" or "lol" and says either "floyd is getting beat if he trieds to come forward" or "lmfao, Floyd will be on his bike all night with Shane"

    than he does it

    and he "has no legs"...CMON NOW...GUY SAID IT BEFORE THE FIGHT THAT THEY WOULD PRESS THE ATTACK AND COME FORWARD ON SHANE...

    MOST IDIOTS ON HERE SAID "O HE DONT HAVE THE SIZE" OR "O SHANE IS TOO BIG FOR FLOYD TO WALK HIM DOWN"...

    There ignorance shows now too...GOOD FOOTWORK WAS WHAT ALLOWED FLOYD TO WALK SHANE DOWN...NOT SIZE AND ALL THAT....THIS IS WHY ALOT OF NEWER PAC FANS DONT UNDERSTAND THE TECHNICALITIES OF THE SPORT..

    PS...MOSLEY IS MUCH MORE OF A PROVEN OPPONENT FOR PAC OR FLOYD THAN MARGARITO COULD HAVE EVER DREAMED TO BE

    It's not complicanted, Mosley just caught Mayweather relaxing. Mayweather underestimated Mosley speed a bit.

    Because Mosley cant handle opponents who boxes him. He lost to 2xWright/2xForrest.

    Floyd is versatile and adaptable enough to use different gameplans against different opponents. Zab and Shane are the fastest opponents he's faced and he walked them down behind a high guard.

    Floyd fights more flat footed now anyway. A fighter's legs usually aren't going to be as fresh in his 30s. He did go on his bike in the early rounds versus Hatton, but mostly he stays flat footed. That's not to say he doesn't still have good legs, but they're just not as fresh as they have been before.
