    So I take it you think Mayweather has a glass chin? He was rocked by Corley who has a 37% ko ratio.......Jose Cotto has a 64% ko ratio and has won all his recent fights almost all by ko/tko and had won like 4 out of the last 5 by ko prior to facing Alvarez......so who is more feather fisted Corley or J. Cotto? Surely pbf has more of a glass chin by your logic?

    shane mosley's 40 plus, shot, and fighting at a weight he's looked bad at historically. even with canelo's shortcomings, shane is getting beat up.

    Shane has no chance. Canelo's team picked him for a reason, he's DONE. 154 is his worse weight and the guy needs to be helped from boy and girl scouts to cross the street and get to his house to yell at kids to keep off his lawn. He shouldn't be in a boxing ring let alone out of his rocker for long periods of time.

    BTW, would love for Mosley to knock out the cherrypicker but I can't see it.

    I think Shane beats him. Styles makes fights and I think Alvarez has chosen the wrong fighter as a stepping stone. Yes Mosley looked bad against Pacquiao and Mayweather, but so what? those two make everyone look bad even though I think Cotto will do better against Mayweather than he did against Pacquiao. Once again Styles makes fights.

    Alvarez will show in this fight that he has a big heart, but is also veyr easy to hit with a lot of flaws. He could get stopped in this one.

    I put a small amount of money on Shane to KO him at 3/1. However, I really dont' see it happening, did you see the last video of Shane on the pads? He really looks his age, he was missing the pads quite a few times. Alvarez on the other hand is sharp, he's huge for 154 (more like 170), and he's more natural at this weight. I've got Alvarez by UD, if Shane wants to continue after this he'll be a journeyman.

    (by the way, how was your driving test?)

    :twisted::twisted::twisted: Drove really well. NO minors?! 2 minutes before the end of the test, A bloke in a facking Lorry decided to smash on his breaks all of a sudden, so my first thought was to indicate right, go into the outside lane, and go around him, but I checked the mirror and there was a people caracter bombing it up behind me, so I couldn't. I breaked and intended to go down to third as the Lorry went into a lay by and just keep going, but the examiner banged on the dual breaks. 2 damn minutes :twisted::twisted::twisted:

    Re-booked right away, and should be cool next time. Thanks for asking + remembering :good

    Yeah I saw the videos pal, part of it was Mosley, and the other part was Nazzim doing it on purpose, to see how Shane's balance was, and how he readjusted after moving out of position. I know he isn't what he was, and I'm not expecting a Mayweather-esque performance. I just want him to use his feet to negotiate an angle, a different dynamic of the exchange, then unload. If he's going to win, it'll have to be a basic plan, based around big shots IMO.

    Most people who've fought a ready Serio Mora have looked bad.

    Kermit is a big puncher.

    I'm not so sure, i think Mosley will have a chance of course, but i think he will try and survive.

    I think Mosley has a good chance of winning. In response to those that said Mosley looked bad against Pacquiao, there were several times when Mosley out boxed Pac and made him look stupid. Pacquiao's energy levels are what won him the fight. Prime Mosley beats Pac or loses very narrowly.

    To everyone saying that cintron is a big puncher. Yeah, at 147 he was, he didn't show **** for power at 154 so kill that noise.
