    Shane has always struglled with boxers. Put him in there with someone who was there to be hit and he looked like the second coming. Put him in there with someone with a jab and could move and he looked less effective. PBF doesn't have the same problem with boxers as shane has he's much more complete and smarter. With that said I think Forrest would have given PBF fits due to his jab size and length.

    Please. Shane Mosley couldn't be any different than Floyd Mayweather. I'll add that Mosley also looked much, much better against Vernon in the rematch.

    This is definetly true. Now that he is clearly in the drivers seat, I wish Floyd would put his ego aside and make the fight. Hopefully if Pac can put a few wins together and Floyd keeps winning, they can build it back up agIn and make it happen.

    he was definitely a threat to take that "0" in 2009, but we'll have to see pac-rios before we can answer that now.

    No...Floyd is/was/will be too much for Manny. It's not to imply Manny isn't a great fighter, Marquez is a great fighter too...SSM was a great fighter...Cotto...Hatton...ODLH on and on.

    DLH and SSM were great fighters but NOT by the time FLoyd fought them.
    Cotto and Hatton were NOT GREAT fighters.
    JMM is a great fighter but held every possible disadvantage when he fought Floyd!

    Now back on point. FLoyd is a great fighter and I agree now that he would be
    simply too much for Pac (an opinion I did not hold 2-3 years ago).

    But this is certainly not Floyds fault. He was worse than khan saying his name w/ ODH and wanted Shane years earlier as well.

    Congrats rodney, you're now officially on my ignore list. This forum will be better without your useless posts.

    Everyone is entitled to their opinions but you're just a clear hater cluttering up the thread. Good bye :hi:
