Mosley v. Mayweather: How It Goes Down

All I am going to say is Ricky ****in Hatton was able to bully Floyd to the ropes and make Floyd find another way to beat him rather than Pot Shotting to a UD, Mosley is much stronger and far more skilled Floyd has his work cut out for him.

 

I think this will be a fugly fight with Mosley using a hit-and-hold gameplan after realizing his reflexes aren't sharp enough to box with Mayweather.

I've said from day 1 what Mosley has to do in order to have any chance at winning this fight, and I'm thinking Nazim and Shane see the exact same thing.

Mosley still has speed, a speed advantage? no, not in that he is faster then Mayweather, but he is faster then anyone Mayweather has fought since Judah. But his speed is effective in short bursts, like it's always been. So to utilize this speed against Mayweather, he needs to use it to get off first. Maybe with a lead right, which probably won't land but it will get him inside to wrap up Mayweather before any counters come back. And it will look like he is controlling the fight, he will be the one initiating the exchange and then walking floyd back once he grabs him. He may steal points this way.

His strength? Well that isn't an advantage at all if he never gets a glove on Mayweather. So, IMO, he will need to utilize his strength by clinching and wrestling. Thats the only way. Mayweather is too good with his footwork and positioning, his timing and reflexes are too tight for Mosley to think he is going to be able to bang away at Mayweathers body from even the smallest of distances without grabbing him.

That's just the way I see it. Mosley's ONLY chance = Fight Bernard Hopkins type of fight.

 

I see a one sided schooling by PBF. I hope everybody can give him some credit and not just say that shane is spent.

 

I hope is worth the $65 I'm about to shell out

 

he needs to execute the margarito gameplan

 

Does anyone else remember how frustrated he was in between rounds when Cotto was boxing him?

 

mayweather might make it a boring fight but i know shane will hold up his end of the bargain

 

Mosley will be more willing to leave himself vulnerable in order to find a way of penetrating Floyds defensive/evasive technique. This will at times leave Floyd ideal opportunities to land picture perfect, precise counters, but as long as Mosley hits something, then he's going to be wearing Floyd down, enough so for a late round KO.

It's a long shot, but I've got a fiver at 20 to 1 odds lying on it!!!!!

 

I see it as a boring clnch fest , mayweather wins a close decision

 

What is that?

 

Make Floyd come to him with little to no defense.


YEEEEEEEE HAWWW BUDDY!

 

Mosley was frustrated when he tried to outbox Cotto who Mosley was very caustious against early because of the power but when he came forward he hurt Cotto and had him running, Mosley is at his best against guys who can't back him. PBF is a much better boxer than Cotto BUT he is not as big, or strong and after all the trash talk, I can't see this not turning into a dogfight early.

 

STFU Noob

 

:rofl Floyd doesn't block shots with his face for a living, he has something called defense.
