$1,000,000.00 Question: Did Manny Outperform Floyd?

I think its close too. They both made shane go into a shell and then dominated him. Like I said, if someone wanted to say they were on par with eachother for different reasons, I could see where ones coming from on that one.

Youre right, hes the offensive fighter, and he presents way way more openings for someone like Mosley to exploit, and yet mosley still had better shots against Mayweather then he did pac. So pac is suppossed to be the 'offensive' guy, and yet shane had more successes against Mayweather then he did against Pac.

Thats just it though. Its a lot harder to stop a guy whos ONLY goal has become to survive. Especially when you make that guy a tough, durable, and powerful guy like Mosley. after he was knocked down, and went into straight survival mode, I think its a little much to ask Pac to be the first person to ever stop Mosley when hes in there no longer to even try but only to survive.

Pac thrives on openings, counterings, and then overwelming guys that have been worn down by him over the course of the fight..... Mosley provided practically nothing to go off (and Pac still knocked him down)

The fight was dissapointing to me too. But that was almost entirely down to Shane... just like the Mayweather fight. Also, Pac didnt seem quite as sharp as he normally is, for whatever reasons. But it needs to be remembered that he was in there with a guy who had never been stopped, rarely ever even been down, who has KO power and good speed, and who decided after getting busted that he wanted to go the distance and did everything he could to ensure that by practically retreating the entire fight.

For sure :good And I said that before this fight.

They both fought an old, past prime mosley. Thats just a fact.

But Mayweather fought Mosley when he was considered one of his biggest if not main threat (outside of pac) and was also considered by many to be 'the man' in the division.... who was coming off one of the biggest wins of his career and who many said mayweather would never fight.

Pac fought Mosley with Mosley not having won a fight in over two years, when many in the boxing world were actively wondering if he should hang up the gloves, and someone who shouldnt be getting a fight of this magnitude all things considered.

That I completely agree with.

Just imo (and i realise its just my opinion, not fact :good)

Things can be close, but clear.

There is no way that to me personally, Mayweather had the better night against Mosley.

Their performences were close, because they both dominated Mosley, but at the end of the night Mosley had more moments against the bigger, 'more skilled' and 'defensive minded' Mayweather, then he had against Pac.... and then, on top of that, Pac actually dropped Mosley, with not a flash knockdown, but a true, legit one punch knock down for the first time in however many years.

Both dominated Mosley, and if someone wants to compare the fights, they are both close because of just how much they did dominate him. But I just look at who did Mosley have more success against? (mayweather) What fight would he rather go through again? (mayweather) What fight was he actually seriously hurt, face swelling in fight, and put down in? (Pac)

Close, but clear, for me.


But at the end of the day, its splitting hairs, both dominated the crap out of Mosley.....
