Anyone suspect the Mosley shot on Floyd wasnt seen coming by Floyd?

    I think so. Everyone who knows anything about boxing, knows that the shots that u dont see coming will mess u up. Pac KOed Hatton on a shot he didnt see and both his KD's of Cotto are also from unseen shots, to give recent examples.

    Now, it appears to me that the shot May took from Shane was one of these. Notice how the first shot does nothing visibly to affect Floyd...he took it ok. But 2Osecs or so after that, Floyd throws a left hook and at the same time Shane throws a typical quick, overhand, and with lots of leverage Shane Mosley bang. It seems people dont notice the Floyd left hook though as this went down. Anyway I think if its true that Floyd didnt see it coming, then his chin should be seen as at least ok. If not, then for me its a concern that he couldnt take two clean Mosley headshots. Yes Mosley has power but Mosley has hit many fighters with lots more than 2 clean shots in any given fight and it seems Floyd by far has taken them the worse than any previous Mosley opponent. I also think Mosley's and Naz's "power" talk on 24/7 has people a bit gassed up on just how powerful he is. Thoughts?
