    Everytime Floyd fight someone than that fighter 'gasses out' and makes 'bad technical moves' like Oscar and Shane not throwing punches in the later round...

    A lot of people on here always put the blame on "Shane and Oscar being old and done" but I think they quit throwing because they are always getting hit by precision shots...not shots that will knock u, some of em might hurt u or buckle u a bit, but after time when u let ur hands go, n ur opponent is making u pay with stinging shots to the body, hard jabs right in your gut, you get tired and lose confidence..

    Both Oscar and Shane are guilty of this..Maybe they did "gas out" BUT IT WASN'T ALL AGE CUZ BOTH LOOKED BETTER IN THERE PREVIOUS FIGHTS...OSCAR COMIN OFF THAT HUGE KNOCKOUT OVER RICARDO AND SHANE WITH THE KO OVER ANTONIO..

    STYLES MAKE FIGHTS...THE COUNTERPUNCHING EVERYTIME THEY THROW THERE HANDS IS WHAT MAKES THEM STOP THROWING ALONG WITH GETTING BEAT UP IN THE PROCESS...NOT ALL OF THAT GOTTA DO WITH AGE..MOSLEY LOOKED AWESOME AGAINST TONY...BUT TONY CANT MAKE U PAY LIKE FLOYD:hat
     
  2. Looked like the same aged Mosley that was getting outboxed for 10 rds by Ricardo Mayorga to me.

    I agree with you but come on, this isn't 1999-2002. The fighters are from another time period, so yes, age does come into the conversation somewhat.

    Bro, i disagree SLIGHTLY

    Look at what manny did to Oscar after the PBF Fight.

    Sorry bro, last night, as soon as the bell rang, i saw shane and knew he had ZERO chance to win this fight, u can tell it in his body language.

    I understand that the HBO commmenatators kept sayign shane looked old, if u have watched him long enough, this would be obvious to you. Before PBF started even throwing shots, shane did not have any snap on his punches from the opening bell, neither did he have his legs.

    This is not to say that PBF did not do his thing, at the end of the day, Shane challenged FLOYD!

    Not sure. Mosley landed 2 good shots, and got caught a few times after than in the same round, but really not enough for a warrior like Shane to immediately stop punching after that. Especially after having Mayweather seriously hurt. If Mosley had kept punching and gotten countered badly and then by the 7th or 8th he had stopped punching, then I can see your point. But in round 3, Mosley's workrate was already nonexistent.

    Gatti kept trying, and trying and got countered senseless, Gatti was a warrior, so is Shane, but Shane was also tired or did he get discouraged so damn quickly after seriously hurting Mayweather? That's crazy...

    Difference is that a 154 pound Oscar was there to fight....The corpse that fought Manny was there to be pummeled.

    Did you guys see someone putting ice in Mosley's mouth when he was waiting in the ring? How much do you think making weight had to do with Mosley's performance?

    Shane won a single round..maybe 2...Shane did what he did best..he landed 2 flush power punches and floyd PROVED HE COULD TAKE THEM...

    FLOYD WOULD TECHNICALLY BE BETTER AT EVERYTHING THAN MANNIE..EVERYTIME PAC THROWS HE WOULD GET SOMETHING COMING OVER THE TOP AND AS SMALL AS HE IS FLOYD WOULD USE THAT HIGH GUARD TO COME FORWARD AND BREAK MANNY DOWN..COULD CARE LESS ABOUT SHANE NOT HAVING HIS LEGS....FLOYD WOULDA BEAT THE SAME SHANE THAT EVERYONE SAID WAS UNTOUCHABLE AFTER THE MARGARITO FIGHT...

    AS FOR AGE...FLOYD TRIED TO GET THE FIGHT WHEN SHANE WAS 28..HE CHOSE TO TAKE A HIGHER PAYDAY ROUTE AND MOVE UP TO GET OSCAR:deal:good:hi:
