    Maybe you should ignore kel. All he does is go onto the forum and try to troll. Only reason he doesn't get labeled as an outright troll is because he's not clever enough to say the funny thing or two like your typical troll.

    I know, I need to stop feeding trolls... I recognize them by Avatars but sometimes I feel the need to correct the bull**** being posted so that other people don't get the wrong idea.

    He knew Shane was going to be "jittery", and boy was he right. The dude was a nervous wreck, hopping on his toes aimlessly, and being almost apologetic for hitting Floyd in round 2. Mentally, Floyd had him beat before the bell even began. And guys, this is Shane Mosley we're talking about. A guy who beat Oscar twice and locked on to be a future hall of famer, but Floyd reduced him to nothing. I hate to see what Pac will do to him if he gasses again. :verysad

    its because he can fight that way. he chooses to fight differently depending on the type of fighter he is facing. corrales, gatti, juts like shane like to bring it. floyd knows what they are gonna do because they always fight the same way. being aggressive they leave themselves open to counters, floyd just picks them apart

    Floyd realized he could take Shanes punches, after he warmed up to them in the second round, and he basically had nothing to fear. Its a shame these two didnt fight five years ago, it would have been a really exciting fight I think, because Shane would keep the pressure and volume on Floyd, and they would have traded more.

    Floyd has had his number all along. Even five years ago, Floyd beats him. Which is why he had always wanted Shane in the past.

    He only brought the fight to Moslsey when Mosley was gassing out because.

    Same he did to Judah.

    Floyd's strategy is somewhat similar to Hopkins. They let their opponents gas out while they conserve as much as they can during early rounds so they can capitalise late in the fight.

    What are you talking about??? He began walking Mosley down in the second round after he got hit. Mosley wasn't gassed he was getting his ass whooped.

    Same thing with Judah, Judah has gone 12rds before no problem. Judah didn't just gas for no reason. He didn't really gas at all, but rather Floyd broke him down with good body work.

    Same thing with Mosley. He wasn't gassed, but he was shell shocked cause he was getting lit up with precision shots.

    Floyd opened up only after Shane gassed... Floyd opened up when Shane got tired in the 4th round... Even Pac would be ashamed of you fools running around with his avatar. I mean seriously do you guys even watch the fight before you make idiotic comments? Floyd took the fight to him in the second round. Shane didn't gas he got his face tagged and couldn't adjust. Even then his output stayed around the same.

    Mosley is done and really shouldn't of had that long layoff before facing Mayweather. I do give Floyd credit but the fight should've happened either in 08 or 09 though Mayweather would've won anyways. I also like that people(me included) said he never would face Shane but he proved them wrong. Though Shane was faded, the win was quality and Floyd showed heart. I wish he had more balls to face more quality fighters. Again, if I'm wrong I'll give him credit but he'll never face Pacquiao while Pacquiao is active, dangerous, and still pretty fast.

    Mosley looked very old against Mayorga then looked very young against Margarito.
    Floyd knew that by submmitting Mosley to a random blood testing he would look
    his age, as he looked against Mayorga. With the random blood testing, Mosley had no chance of using whatever he used to look so good against Margarito. Floyd had no reason to ride on his bike against a 40 years old Mosley who could not use illegal substance that helped his stamina.

    Are you really naive enough to believe that tests work all of the time? I'm pretty sure many doping agencies have ways of getting around them especially after all of these years that they've been around. There's no 100% chance that tests catch everything, none.

    "Our plan was to break him down cuz he's a lot older."


    Said it in a pre-fight interview when being heckled about Pacquiao. It worked pretty damn well.

    Floyd was walking him down from round 2, and yes that is when he got caught twice. Are you just making stuff up?:-(
