    nothing new to say.... but Floyd took 1 cracking shot from Mosely in that 2nd rd.... he showed me he has what it takes to go down as a great.... he obviously went on to dominate Mosely - great fighter even at this age despite what some will say - & I think he has did enough now to be considered at least on par with the Pacman.

    No ? :think

    Shane is 38 and didnt do anything the whole fight even when he had Floyd hurt. Shane was too content to loose.

    I don't really care about rank's..
    But IMO, Last night performance by Mayweather will be his signature fight.
    He took the role everybody including myself thought Shane would have & took it to him.

    As far as Pacquiao, Only way to settle that would be to match them.

    I don't think Mosley was any better than Clottey, honestly. If they fought next week, I'd put money on Clottey to decision Mosley, so that's what I think about the Mosley win. Because of their name value and past, regardless of how they performed on the night, Mayweather's victory will carry more stock.

    Floyd deserves the credit. Whether Shane was finished tonight or not doesn't matter. Nobody else could have neutralized Shane as badly as Floyd did tonight.

    I agree. That was a great performance - especially since he got caned in the second.

    It was an excellent performance, but it has to be put into context. Mosley was 38 years old and was clearly past his prime. A strong argument can be made that a prime Mosley would have finished Floyd in the second round.

    I would pick Clottey to beat this Mosley too.

    A guy that gets tired after two rounds isnt going to beat Clottey.

    Not one mother****er. Lol at the dude that said ****ing Clottey. The same Clottey that never won any titles.. never did **** but lose all of his big fights. The lightest puncher at welterweight.

    Mosley should retire. He can't go 12 rounds anymore.

    Clottey fights 30 seconds of every round and gets tired himself down the stretch. Thats his MO.
