    Is 24/7 just like every other show that made floyd mayweather's opponent appear to have a chance to beat him.

    Does Shane Mosley have a real chance of beating Floyd Mayweather

    Mayeather has a reach advantage 26 in. to 25 in. faster handspeed quicker footspeed smarter superlative defense and reflexes I mean seriously Shane is going to be outclassed It's interesting for 5 rounds because counterpunchers start slow

    Mosley has a real chance of beating Floyd. Mosley's reach is 74" and Floyd's reach is 72"

    This will be Mayweathers best ever win even though Shane is 39.Of course Mosley has a shot.

    huge upset if he wins, he has silenced the doubters before (margo, dela hoya) but a win against Mayweather would be something magical, i really hope he pulls something out the bad, personally i ahve Mayweather comfortable winning to a UD

    ...although mayweather's a *****..period

    Mosley is like the late Diego Corrales, he has a reach but his style of fighting does'nt utilize that reach to his advantage.
    Mosley does'nt practice, so he does'nt have a good jab.


    Mosley only has a punchers chance imo.


    Go Mosley!!!!!!

    Mosley doesn't use his reach he much would rather trade and slug it out or use bodyshots. He's a good bodypuncher so that skill alone should help him even a little against Mayweather.

    I will be surprised if Mosley throws one shot that Mayweather doesn't see coming.

    Me and divac pretty much used the same concept in a different way lol. I get what you meant though the OP messed up.

    I think he does. He's arguably the best fighter Floyd's ever faced, even for his age. If you look at Floyd's welterweight competition over the years, this is a huge step up. I wouldn't be surprised to see an upset, but I wouldn't bet on it.
