No one thinks Floyd lost to DLH. A lot of people feel he might of lost to Castillo but never show any scorecards and they've just seen the fight! Shane was also 36 years old.
Cotto beat Mosley, who even at his age was better than any opponent Mayweather ever fought. Cotto is NOT ducking Mayweather no matter what the joy boys say
Cotto clearly beat shane. had Floyd boxed the way Cotto did in the last couple rounds we would all praise floyd but since it was cotto we don't give credit.
Dont get me wrong. I think Floyd beat DLH 8-4. But dont compare FLoyds win over DLH to Cotto's over Mosley b/c Cotto's is far better simply b/c not only did Mosley beat DLH twice (although I thought he lost the 2nd fight), but Mosley was a full time fighter at the time time DLH was barely a part time fighter and was coming off of a string of unimpressive fights.
Today's Shane is better than Castillo and Corrales were and better than shot and inactive ODLH and do you really think Hatton would beat Mosley at 147? GET REAL.
A 36 year old Shane is far better than 34 year old DLH. And seeing how DLH is Floyd's only claim to fame, then yes you must say that Shane at 36 is better than any of FLoyd's opponents. Please find one opponent in Floyd's career that could be 36 year old shane.
I dont compare them. A DLH win is better then a Judah win. And a Ricky Hatton win is better then a 36 year old Shane Mosley win. Lets face it Shane is on the way out so was DLH. But DLH is better then Judah and Hatton was better then Shane. Because if Floyd was fighting Shane, Shane would be TOO old.
Corrales was an undefeated champ and a monster at the time in his prime. That was a better win for Floyd then Mosley was at 36 for Cott. it was clear that Cotto's reflexes at this point were faster then Shane's. that would not be the case if Shane was in his prime.
Hatton better than Shane??????????atsch atsch atsch atsch Are you kidding me? What have you been smoking man? Mosley would wipe the floor with Hatton at any weight class. By the way, Cotto's victory over Quintana was much better than Floyd's over Baldomir since you want to play that game.
:deal lets compare their last 5 fights before Cotto and PBF. Mosley Dominated David Estrada Dominated Jose Luis Cruz TKO Fernando Vargas TKO Fernando Vargas Dominated Luis Collazo, who gave Hatton hell. ODLH TKO Luis Ramon Campas Lost to Shane Mosley (notice this fight is in Oscar's previous 5 but not in Mosley's, because Oscar was half-retired before he fought PBF) Won a controversial decision over Felix Sturm Got KO'd by Hopkins TKO Mayorga TKO over Mayorga
Corrales has never been as good as Shane Mosley. Even today, Shane Mosley is better than Corrales was when Floyd fought him.
:rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl atsch atsch Ricky Hatton is a better Welterweight than Shane Mosley??? Did you see what Mosley did to Collazo? Did you see how Hatton struggled against Collazo?
