Floyd Mayweather: "I'm going to focus on timing and distance ..."

I think you and Floyd should do an amateur porno together and sell it to Nallege and Pauliemayweather.

 

Just can't see it my man.

Floyd UD's were the smart money goes.:good

 

ok. And a technical decision is not a stoppage, you would have to go.

No contest, we both stay.

Fitzgerald, you are whistling in the dark. Shane is far more durable than anyone PBF has fought. No one comes close....no one. There will be no stoppage by PBF, unless Shane is cut in a way that demands it. But even that is unlikely, headbutts from PBF are unlikely and Shane has NEVER had any problems with swelling or cuts. And despite claims that his defense is bad. He has only been hit often in really only two fights: Winky and to a lesser degree Cotto. Against Forrest both men in both fights had connect %'s in mid 20's.

 

Shane, actually didn't say the key to winning the fight was speed and power only. He said recently that his combination of length, height, speed, and his OWN timing would cause PBF problems.

But like most PBF fans what Shane actually says goes unnoticed, or they of course misinterpret it as meaning he was going to fight exclusively off the back foot, and or stand in front of PBF and try to out feint and counter punch him.

Every top elite fighter thinks about distance and timing. They all of course fight at their best at different distances depending on the opponent, and their style. So basically PBF didn't really say anything profound. Now, if he would have disclosed at what distance he thought was optimal for him in this fight; I could then comment on whether I thought he was correct.

Well Fitzy what distance do you believe PBF needs to be at to have the best chance of winning the fight?

 

Its not because he went for the easy money last few fights that he started fearing big guys of a full 1 inch more than him

 

its gonna be a loooooooong 12 rounds, youll be out before any of the 2.

 

Paul Williams? Antonio Margarito?

 

Im going to JAB and run and maybe throw 1 punch then run again:rofl

 

For someone who presses for the ko, mosley really doesn't get hit all that much. When you fight as aggressively as mosley, you increase the chance of getting tagged. Fighters like hopkins, mayweather etc don't take as many chances hence the reason why they get hit less. They also don't square up as much and predominantly fight from a defensive posture.

I would even say that if mosley decided to become a safety first defensive fighter he could be just as effective as the before mentioned fighters. He has the speed and reflexes; and an above average boxing brain.

 

Floyd will just stick and move and cruise to a decision. Its been done before with Shane. Pac would actually be able to take the fight to Mosley or stick and move and win either way. Floyd can only do it one way.
