    tbh id like sugar to win. BUT im not sure he will.. his style was taylor made for margo, the tough mexican takes a lot of shots and if shane can reel them off on target then your pretty much finished. look how he was schooled against mayorga only to come out and land a killer,(hands by his side but a man on a mission) blow that changed the fight. shane was also made to look ordinary against cotto who is not by any means the fighter that fm is.. i hope im wrong as there can not be a more staunch floyd hater on here, for what he represents, and the way he treats our beloved sport, but i think the out come will be fm by split decition..

    There are some fights that are easy to imagine but this one is very unpredictable because we haven't seen Mosley in an year. I know for sure that Mosley is going to be the bigger man and has very fast heavy hands and very good coach.

    I think Mosley does eveyrthing he can with his strength. He dominates the clinch in the first four or so. Mayweather begins turning those uppercuts in the clinch, and using the forearms and twisting movement to take the life out of Shane. He then begins to land the lead rights and leaping lefts as he so often does in fights. Shane uses his jab as a range finder like clockwork. Problem is that I don't see him changing that and Floyd can use that to keep him from any sort of accuracy.

    The trick is to confuse the distance with the subtle movements and I don't see Shane getting around this fact.

    I'd like to conclude by saying that I cannot see Floyd stopping Sugar. His head is made of some strange mineral we have not yet learned to build our rocketships out of.

    :D Yeah like Oscar's head. That's why their first match was so funny. They were practically impossible to knock out at this stage of their careers :)

    I don't remember the exact compu stats #, but Marquez landed somewhere in the realm of 15-17% of his shots....Marquez is quite the accurate puncher, which makes that % even that more alarming...and this was a performance from a fighter who hadn't fought in over a year and a half..I like Goosen, but that's just an overall terrible assessment of that fight...The irony in all this is i believe Mosley's inactivity will play a key role in this fight- i see Mayweather going home with a UD prob around 8-4....

    Well uh , Mayweather did say that he would be dissappointed if he couldnt knock out Marquez. I did not see the fight. but I would have expected Mayweather to steamroll JMM but he could not.

    All I saw of that fight was the post fight interview.

    Mayweather possibly struggled. Maybe possibly struggled with himself as a fighter. Which led to him making the most outlandish terms for a boxing match in maybe the history of boxing; in negotiaons with Pac. He may have had his confidence shaken a little bit . After the fight.

    If Mosely 's age catches up with him then He will lose. But I believe its the dynamic punchers that beat defensive fighters.
    No boxer can stop every punch from landing. And when some those basic punches land on a defensive fighter; he can just deal with it like any other fighter. but dynamic punches , land in different areas.

    They hit you and they shake you to the core. Over and over again. Defensive fighters usually elude the big shots in this instance but its the follow up shots that tell the story.

    Suprising to hear some much BS from boxing people. So dam biased because of their friendship with Shane. Lets keep it real, how has Shane done against comparable sized guys that fight at range?? Hes struggled. Mayweather is going to make him lead and beat the **** out of him.

    The fact is Mosley doesn't have the footwork or Jab to stay with PBF. PBF will move on his ass all night long and win by wide UD:deal
