    but floyd wasn't doing nothing neither in round 3 and mosley didn't do ****. he didn't even try when it was a crucial point in the fight.

    Aint that the truth,and after the fight he thanked Floyd more than once,he looked like a guy that was just happy to be getting paid.

    Very disappointed with Mosley i thought he had more pride than that.

    A day before the fight I posted that he would tire by the third or fourth round. Predicted he would get KOed by the 7th 8th or 9th rounds and even though he didnt,if you see those rounds Mayweather could of knocked him out. Also predicted that his corner may stop the fight by the 9th. At the end of round nine Richardson told him,that if he didnt show him something that he would stop the fight. Floyds too much for him and anybody else.

    With any older fighter, it's a fight-by-fight thing. Maybe even round-by-round.
    One minute they look good, the next they hit the wall.
    All credit to Floyd, though... He has a way of making fighters look 2nd rate.

    Thought that Shane would have at least gone out on his shield. Disappointed.

    I still say it was his nerves. I know he's been in the fight game for years, but it clearly showed in this fight that he was nervous as **** before the opening bell. He was using adrenaline and nervous energy in the first 2 rounds, he got lucky and threw some bombs. Once that died down, and Floyd stepped it up, it was a done deal.

    Looking back on it, it was combination of things that doomed Mosley. I blame his nervousness on his surprisingly poor performance, but being one-dimensional didn't help either. Does Mosley even know what an uppercut is? He hasn't thrown many of those his whole career. Just jab, and looping right. I was shocked I didn't even see his left hook or his dedicated body work the whole fight. He had all the tools to win. Good trainer saying exactly the right things, the power(That first right was like the grandaddy of all right hands jesus) the movement. I feel he had a good gameplan. It just wasn't his night. Being 38 didn't help either.
