    For the people who say this will be a one sided fight. Yes it could be. You never know. But won't it be nice for Mayweather to PROVE his one of the greats, then for people just to keep saying it. Personally I think this is a legit mega fight of which anything can happen.

    God no. He's 1 of the worst, Floyd will win too easily.
    A few weeks ago though he would have been by far the toughest and would have KO'd Floyd in 2 rounds, but that was ok because Floyd wasn't fighting him then.

    I put it about equal to Castillo and Corales, With Hatton the best of the rest.

    I agree. Richardson has helped greatly with the evolution of Mosley as well as with Hopkins. If Mosley, who is more of a puncher than a boxer, would employ his jab more to land instead of range finder in which he is just punching air or pawing at his opponent, he can rack up some badly needed points if that jab actually landed. At times I think he relies too much on his power. Still, any version of Shane should make a hell of a fight with anyone as he always puts on a show. He is definitely hands down the best opponent Floyd has faced to date if they do meet on May 1.

    Castillo gave Floyd the most competition which is why the rematch was made. Mosley could be his best competition at 147...until the fight happens we don't know how Mosley will do.
