    Well, can he?

    Not the greatest ever, but at least the best of OUR generation? :huh:good:bbb


    Take the test PAQ or stfu!!








    P.S.- Yeah I am a noob/lurker, but I have had the opportunity to meet Floyd, and he was the friendliest and most gracious celebrity I have ever met. I root for him all the time, and tonight he proved that he is on a different level!

    a smaller guy going up to beat a bigger guys deserve more respect

    not a chicken fighting a 38 years old and the fans think he deserve respect

    I agree....He fought a complete fight...Offense, Defense, Ring Generalship, what is not to like?.....Against a World Class opponent...

    You watch, if he beats pacquiao.....You will hear "Pacquiao is past his best" schpil...It was just hours ago, that some said on here " shane, will be his toughest fight"....:-(

    i respect his speed, skill, willingness to really fight tonight. but i can't deny that mosley looked tired and really gassed after 2/3 rounds.

    As much as I detest his boxing style and his personality, I take my hat off to him for putting on a master class tonight.

    I give props to PBF, but Pac is still the best on this generation. PBF had the chance to secure it but he went out cowardly when the WW was stacked with a lot of talents. You can't just retire when there is a lot to prove.

    Totaly agree, until he face Pacquiao, he will not get respect from me. :good
    Face Pacquiao Floyd, and not a 70 years old fighter like Mosley.

    You mean all Floyd's opponents breath through their mouth after round 3? C'mon, Floyd was great tonight but Shane was also clearly old tonight.
