    Yep, I saw that after I posted. Good post.:good Didn't Winky call Floyds bluff a while ago and Floyd ran for the hills?

    What makes it worse for Mosley is that his punches are 'telegraphed' in the defensively superb eyes of Mayweather, and they are also wide. Mayweather will completely take away Shane's right hand.

    Mosley seems incredibly confident, which does make one wonder, but everything points to a very easy Mayweather victory.

    "Height factor" is one of major misconceptions in boxing. In reality, reach is what matters since that decides the range for both fighters. Floyd has the same reach of Winky and just slightly shorter than Vernon in that category. Also, neither of those two were physical fighters so the "big" factor wasn't the decider rather than the styles and the jab. Floyd is stylistically different, but controls range just as good or better than Winky, has faster hands and can pop out the well timed jab if he wants to, and believe me, that's what he's planning. But the main thing is not whether Floyd can use the Forrest/Winky plan (Cotto didn't have to), but that Forrest and Winky easily handled a prime Mosley and he's well past his prime in 2010.

    I don't see how losing to a prime Winky and Forrest has any bearing on this fight at all. It's apples and oranges for so many reasons. Not saying you are, but many people use the Winky-Forrest fights as some kind of knock against Shane and their reasoning that Floyd will win. Floyd would have gotten his ass handed to him by either of those two men as well imo.

    Boxers who box Shane give him trouble as Shane is more of a slugger than a boxer. Floyd gives Forrest trouble because Floyd has speed and defense. VF was a superb technition, and he would get his licks in on Floyd before he loses a UD.

    I don't see that at all cuz u fail to realize boxers respect other boxers punching power and no one, Mosley, Forrest and Wright would respect Floyd's. I have followed all of their careers and they would walk through all of Floyd's shot. Not to put Floyd output would not be enough to win against a Winky or Forrest. Especially Vernon's who's output was always up there. Winky is a heavy handed fighter who did not throw a lot of punches but sat on his punches when he did. I am not saying who will beat who but I highly doubt Floyd would beat either of the 2 since they were 54 - 60 lb'ers on their best days. And I seriously doubt Floyd would beat a prime Viper. Let's just concentrate on the fight Saturday 1st. Too many Floyd donna's on this site I swear.

    More than he needs, Shane only need to catch him in one.

    Shane by KO within six.

    Nobody has been able to walk through Floyd so what are you talking about lol... Second, it you think Floyd loses to those guys, cool, but don't act like you have proof in a book that Floyd automatically loses to those guys...

    When you call Mosley a cherrypicked opponent then I think you seriously need to go and have your ****ing head examined you clown. Skill wise Floyd is better, but Shane still has good speed, he is bigger, has experience, great power and a great chin. Floyd's avoiding anyone who could give him a fight? yeah you're right, 6 time world champ in 5 weight divisions he's clearly just fought a bunch of tomato cans in his 40 fight pro career:patsch

    Floyd's fighting the guy who lost to the guy who lost to Pac? Using that logic in boxing is idiotic, firstly styles make fights and certain circumstances could affect a performance on fight night (injuries).You do realise Shane lost to Cotto pre-Margarito? Oh and also what about Shane beating the hell out of Margarito?
