I know it's embarissing, he was doing the same thing in the mayweather fight and I posted it a couple of weeks ago, he looks like a scared amateur having he's first fight when he does that, not an elite level warrior out there to destroy like he should. It's shocking to watch

I have nothing intelligent to contriute to this thread but the whole constant glove touching thing was pi**ing me off immensely!! It's a mannerism that Mosley has developed over recent years although I didn't notice him doing it so much with Margo who was giving him free reign at his head. Mosley kept talking to Pac as well - about what I have no idea, maybe asking what to get him at the bar after the final bell!!
I'm glad I wasn't the only ripping my hair out over this when watching the fight. The OP is right - everything that happened, Mosley wanted to touched gloves. It was ridiculous. Once you've touched gloves at the start that should be it until the end of the bout - there's plenty of time to be buddies then, but don't do it in the ****ing ring (unless if there is some genuine reason as a show of sportmanship)
I will never watch the fight again in my entire life and Mosley should be ashamed of himself. Complete gutter ****!
proped did my head in mosley last night, he touched gloves more times than he threw his right hand. he doesn't deserve another big fight, he is totally shot.
Yeah, the glove touching was basically a slap in the audience's face. Maybe if it was an entertaining fight, but it was a snooze fest. And the hugging at the beginning of the 12th round was simply ridiculous. Hugging for what? The 15 punches thrown in the last 11 rounds? **** me, I thought I tuned in to watch boxing last night. At least Jorge Arce kept it real.
yeh that was hella annoyin, im all for sportsmanshp but at the end of the day its a fight, mosley was actin like it was an ordinary sparrin session
lol...gotta love the comments! im glad i dint av to pay for that fight, that was a disgrace for the fans that did and the unlucky lot who paid tickets to the MGM.
If you watch that again though, it was Mosley that (inevitably) inintiated it. Pac looked slightly surprised then hugged back ....out of politeness i guess. But Mosley was pathetic with all that glove touching yes. I figure he wanted to make Pac his friend during the fight, very subtly softening Pacs anger and will to do damage to him. Touching gloves had Pac Feeling like he was fighting a buddy, thus keeping Shane in Pacs 'goodbooks' and incurring less of his wrath. Subliminal maybe, but a psychological ploy to make Pac go easier on him is my take on all that Boxing gentleman **** from Mosley.
