    Speaking of Chris Brown, why would anyone let that woman beater sing the national anthem is beyond me, a total disgrace.

    well, it was at a fight afterall. Somebody probably put forward the idea as a joke...

    it would have been funnier if it had been a duet with whatsherface.

    I think he believed he could win, but he showed way too much respect to Mayweather once they stepped through the ropes. He was like Clottey versus Pacquiao...he was made up he got a shot. I've never seen a boxer at Mosley's level want to touch gloves and show so much respect in the ring for his opponent. Everytime the referee broke up the action and seperated the two...Mosley instantly wanted to touch gloves.

    I thought Mosley had a big shot until I saw his reaction to the last test the day of the weigh in. That shock showed his nerves had just been pushed over the egde. Breaking point. Then in the ring while he was waiting for Floyd someone was hand feeding him ice. Signs of doom.

    Of course he believed going in. However that changed around round 6 though.
