    We'll see, but I think he's in top shape.

    There's only so much being in great condition can do, especially when you're almost 40 and facing a great fighter like Pacquiao.

    In fact, being in great shape may make it worse. He might end up taking more punishment since he's in top condition.

    Why would he take more punishment if hrs in better shape, as opposed to if he wasn't in good shape? Doesn't make sense

    Everyone thinks they are in great shape until southpaw Bruce Lee on steroids smacks you with right hooks and lands a 5 punch combination on your eye. I swear I am rooting for Mosley but I don't know how the hell you beat this guy.

    Because then he is physically able to take more punishment. Let's say a fighter is in poor shape and gets tired quicker, or hasn't trained his body well enough to absorb body shots. Then he's not likely to last as long taking a beating, he'll go down quicker.

    Beating in great shape is only going to do so much for Mosley, it's not as if his reflexes and legs are going to get younger because he's in top shape. He's still going to be getting hit frequently.

    yeah, reminds me of margarito. he was in great shape plus the granite chin enabled him to last 12 rounds against midget pac, but sustained more damage than the ko he got from mosley.

    in great shape or not they will still say that mosley is old and shot after the fight, so there is no point with this kind of thread :nut

    I see what your saying,But at least he will have a chance of winning if he is in good condition, if he's not in shape than he stands no chance at all

    Yeah...I expect nothing else of Shane than to be in top condition. He's a gym rat.

    He's not going to slack off in training.

    these people are all planted. he said Booyboy he found on the street and made him his trainer. this **** isn't real. now he is throwing bazooka uppercuts with both hands on 360. When did that happen ?

    Yep we wont know till the fight. Shane looks in shape, but he did in the mayweather weigh-in too. It doesnt tell you anything about his conditioning. Either way, even if hes in the best possible shape he can be, he's not gonnna be able to reverse time.
