    Mosley wins by TKO ,But i feel it would have been a close fight leading to the stoppage

    Mosley was a complete Animal at Lightweight

    He was the King of that Division

    Yea i agree

    Oscar fight with Floyd wasnt close at all

    I dont know why that ended up as a split decision win for Mayweather

    Oscar was dominated in my opinion

    Seriously, what do think Floyd would have done to Golden Johnson and a 5'3 John Brown?

    At welterweight Mosley outworks Floyd for an easy and wide UD.

    At lightweight I'm not so sure. :think I haven't seen all that much footage of Mosley at 135 to tell you the truth. So I'll leave that prediction up to more knowledgeable posters and trolls who don't know **** and just like to comment anyway.

    I saw a 2 hour special on ESPN Classic on Mosley for the first time the other day. Man, it's amazing how lightning fast and agressive Shane was 10 years ago!

    In fact as I was watching, I was thinking that I would take '98 Mosley to beat '10 Mayweather at any weight welterweight or below.

    Then again, I'm not sure what is considered Floyds 'prime'? Is he prime right now??

    PBF now would give Shane the same problems that he would of given him in his prime and that's movement and a good jab, Shane struggles with boxers. Ain't **** changed PBF by UD.:deal

    At that weight probably Mayweather, but at the lower weights Mosley would have KOd Mayweather. Mosley was way too fast and punched way too hard.

    Shane struggles with boxers who are bigger than him with longer reach, like Vernon Forrest. Shane does not struggle with boxers in general because DLH was a better boxer than anyone else at the time and Mosley beat him.

    Not true at all. Watch a prime DLH, he was practically unbeatable.
