Bernard Hopkins for one...THE ONLY ONE THAT SAID SHANE IS BETTER TODAY THAN HE WAS 5 OR 6 YEARS AGO IS SHANE HIMSELF U FU34IN DUMMY... LMFAO..REGARDLESS OF WHERE THIS THREAD GOES NOW I ALREADY OWNED YA BIT34 A$$.. IM DOIN THIS **** FOR FUN NOWwha:
deal:deal Its a shame the TS is a drooling ******, and lets his obsession with Floyd Mayweather cloud any reasoning.
I knew you were going to say Bernard you dumb *****, he wasn't better at 38 than 33 though, try again who else? A few people said Shane is better now then 5 years ago, do you like being wrong all the time?
Shane is not as good as ever, but neither is Floyd. 5 years ago you would've had a past prime Mosley going against a prime Mayweather. That's a complete mismatch. Shane still has the power he had 5 years ago, the speed is pretty much the same as well. He still doesn't move his head, he still can't jab, and he still wings his punches. So Mosley is not much different than he was 5 years ago. 5 years ago, Mayweather was faster, had better reflexes, and let his hands go more. A loss of speed and reflexes is big for a guy that relies as much on timing as Mayweather. Now Mayweather isn't shot or anything like that, but he has slipped. Given their styles, this would've been an easier fight for Mayweather 5 years ago.

It's not a mismatch, Shane 33 and under beats the best version of Floyd. Shane's style and size are all wrong for Floyd. We haven't even seen Shane in a year and a half. The Margarito fight has too many question marks surrounding it to measure where he's at now. But you can't can't argue with the fact that fighters get much worse when they aproach 40 not better.
God damn, I know about Bhop, I said who else moron. Bhop didn't get recognition till he was almost 40, that doesn't mean he was better at that age.
Explain why? Remember that when Shane was 33, he was going through the worst streatch of his career. At 28, Mayweather looked to be at his best. How is Shane's style all wrong for Floyd when he doesn't jab, when he wings his punches, when he lacks the footwork, when he doesn't move his head? Those are guys that Mayweather usually beats with ease. Again, I'm not going to argue that Shane has gotten better in the last 5 years. However, neither has Mayweather. You have to take that into consideration.
Pressure and combination punching, that's how Castillio did it when he got jobbed. It's Shanes style plus the size and speed that would give Floyd trouble, what would he do against it? Jab to the body? It's a lot harder when you don't have the reach advantage you're used to.
LMFAO..HOLD UP..IMA OWN YOUR DUMB A$$ HARD RIGHT NOW...U SAID THIS BULL$HIT BELOW SO I RESPONDED WITH THE LB 4 LB LISTINGS FROM 98 AND 03 WHICH PUT BHOP AT 33 AND 38 N U RESPONDED WITH THIS BULL**** BELOW..
