He has a punchers chance. The way Pac comes in I wouldnt be suprised if Mosely landed a big one on him.
Mosley has stopped moving his head, and his feet are slowing. He wins early, or he goes home after being peppered with monstrous punches.
Maybe I, I have posted on so many threads in the past but if he catches him Manny unlike Floyd will throw rather than hold on and will get hit again, but thats if Mosley will be out gunned in most categories but its possible not likely
He still has a quick and powerful right hand, and for that he has a puncher chance. A better punchers chance than any of Mannys recent opponents. Of couse that is pretty much his only chance. If he doesnt KO Manny, he will lose possible every round, but he will be dangerous.
Yes Mosley has a chance... But i wouldent bet on it I dont know why Mosley continue to say he has Power and "SPEED" ? Yes he still has the power clearly,but his speed is long gone,he hasnt looked fast in a very long time... Manny stops Shane in this fight
I don't even think Mosley has a punchers chance, he loads up on his shots too much now for someone as quick as Pacquiao.
Stamina- I dont think Shane gassed. He was on his toes the whole fight moving his hands and doing these herky jerky kind of movements, a gassed fighter would not be able to be that mobile. People sight low out put, I think that was more of he was out foxed plain and simple not tired. He didnt know how to get in and rather than risk being countered he flat out just did not come forward Strategy- I think Mosley flat out lacked a strategy last May. After round 2 he had no answer what so ever. Could not get to his face again and never risked going to the body. He basically bounced on his toes followed him around flicked out a weak jab and wrestled a bit at times. He needs a game plan vs Pacquiao and Roach who always do their homework and are always well prepared. Jab- Mosely was never really a jabber. Especially vs Floyd it jsut wasnt there. He put it out there but not effectivley or with any snap. Morales and Marquez both gave Manny hard fights 4 wars between them and they both had HOF jabs. Mosley cant get a hOF jab in a few months of training but he needs to put more snap on it Losses- Shane so far has only lost to boxers. Forrest boxed behind a jab and a tight D and was outboxed. Winky, tight D great jab just outboxed. Cotto yeah he is a slugger but that night he boxed behind a great jab it was close but he won. Floyd outboxed him. Athleticism-Shane relies on it a lot. He is not the greatest boxer his losses have shown this but his style revolves around his power which is outstanding and still there and just natural athletisism. He is older and some of that natural ability is going. Manny is a much improved fighter and keeps on getting better. He lands at a higher accuracy and is hit less. Two major improvements, he also is no longer a left handed fighter. However, Manny lately has not fought anybody who can be called a counter puncher or a defensive guy. Now Im not gonna call Mosley a tremendous counter puncher but he is not a slow plodder like Margo and Cotto fought good for a few roudns but ultimatley could not do it for a whole fight. What Im saying is is that Manny no longer stands there and trades as much. He knows he is not big enough, he did not sit there and trade with Margo he moved a lot he circled the ring a lot. Manny will not be there to be hit. But Mosley is not slow and easy to hit like Margo. Funny thing is is that neither of these guys are jabbers. How are they gonan approach eachother is Manny just gonna dive in with the left and be susceptible to that right hand. How it plays out- I dont see Mosley takin a Margo or Cotto like bleeding. I dont see him beeing bruised and cut to pieces. Now if you study my old posts I pick agaisnt Manny a lot and have learned to start realizing Im wrong and that he is a lot better. I will pick Manny this time by TKO, on the feet no KD's but a seeries of unanswered shots. I feel like Floyd could have done it any time after the 8th but decided to toy with him and punish him for 12 rounds rather than get him out of there. Except for holding back on a disfigured Margo Manny usually gets the job done. He is not a one punch KO artist but can example Hatton but he has a lot of power, he put Marquez on his ass 3 times in the 1st round and broke Margos face in 4 rounds.
