Im now a fan of Floyd Mayweather jr

I can't completly disagree, since it has been a long time and I don't remember the specifics.

From what I do recall, they couldn't overturn it because, legally, Shane didn't test positive for anything (yes, I know...).

Same reason why baseball records can't be reased even though offenders have come out.

 

Hey Lance what's up :hi:

 

I have been in a fight at school... shame that has absolutely **** ALL to do with the sport of professional boxing though

Floyd beat Hatton because he was bigger, faster, sharper, and had much better skills both on the inside and the outside. Hatton wasn't remotely intimidated by Floyd, as his charge in the 1st round and full-blooded efforts throughout the fight will testify.

Floyd edged the decision over Oscar because he was younger, fresher, fitter and faster, and nicked most of the mid-late rounds as Oscar faded. Oscar wasn't remotely bothered by Floyd's attempts at mind games, the evidence being that Oscar pretty much bossed the fight until he started to run out of gas, forcing Floyd back to the ropes with his jab then throwing clusters of punches.

Mosley was completely out of character because his younger character was much faster, much more energetic, and much more explosive than the character he is now... and he knew it. Mosley was not used to being the slower man, and he became demoralized by facing someone with better handspeed than him, and by the fact that his age means he no longer has strength and stamina advantages over other welterweights.


I really don't think you understand this sport at all, if that appalling "fight at school" comment was anything to go by. Have you actually seen those three fights?! :huh

seriously **** idea that floyd beating hatton had anything to do wtih mind games. it was all about the fact that floyd was better than hatton, way better.

 

Ahh....you wanted a Floyd fanboy circle jerk thread...you should have made that clear from the start. :thumbsup

 

Stupid post, and stupid people buying into it. That was cool and all, very entertaining and all but that's all it was. It's called selling a fight, not getting a mental edge.

Tyson barked all he could and looked like the intimidator before he fought Lennox Lewis...we all know what happened there.

 

I wonder what would happen if one of them just nutted him or something?

 

No, I haven't.

And I'm hardly an old timer, I am just not a punk kid like most here.

 

Even without the psychological side Floyd would have beat Hatton and Mosley just as convincingly who are you kidding?
Hatton wasn't thrown off a gameplan, he did the exact same thing he always done, rush in hands down, Mosley's just well past it and it was Floyds adjustment in ring that swung the fight, **** all to do with pre fight psychological warfare.
