    Floyd beats Mosley but Shane beats Pac. Pac gets hit and Shane would hurt him, just to strong.

    Assuming SSM keeps his speed, he could provide trouble for PBF, simply because I think he is faster than Floyd and speed and pressure gives Floyd problems, especially in the opening rounds, witness Judah - Mayweather. I think if Shane touched Floyd the way Judah did Floyd in the 1st 4 -5 rounds, Shane would have a chance of putting Floyd behind in points and would make Floyd have to come forwards and fight instead of sitting back.

    SSM rapes Pac, that is no contest, I think Pac knows this as well, which is why he isn't mentioning SSM.

    Ok well i have noticed that you have actually picked better lately;)

    But your predictions in this is based on what?

    Pacman
    Firstly Pacman and PBF are teo completely different fights for Mosley, looks at how styles make fights-people that come onto Mosley have being met head on and beat, note Oscar twice and Vargas while fights with other come forward fighters like Mayorga and Cotto were close also throughout. SSM has speed in abundance, even still and is a deceptivily big hitter and has a chin. He would be well able to Pacman, only the southpaws work rate could win him the fight on point against Mosley, ala Cotto v SSM. Its still basically unknown territory for Pacman, at say 147 lbs.
    Id go for Shane to beat him in a good fight, probably on points with many close rounds.

    Mayweather
    Look at Mosleys big loses, even in his prime. Against solid defensive fighters in Winky and Forest, 2 a piece.What makes you think that Mosley can beat one of the best defensive fighters in the modern era?
    Mayweather has also speed, decent power..but he has the skill of adapting to a fighter which is rare enough, Calzaghe has is to an extent.
    Mayweather has fought all sorts of opponents big and small, defensive and aggressive and won, with good tactics and a great knowledge of what it takes to beat the man put infront of him.
    Yes SSM has a chance, but its a completely different fight. Given his 4 loses to defensive fighters that can be hard to hit and the fact Mayweather is harder to hit that anyone id definetly side with Mayweather on points, something like 8-4 in rounds.
    Dont dismiss Floyds ability to beat the man infront of him so hastily.
    SSM- great but would always struggle against Floyd.

    Pacman vs. SSM would not even be competitive. Shane is too big, too powerful, too fast, too elusive, too sound fundamentally for Pac to ever stand a chance with him. You all let the faded OScar win cloud your judgement about Pac's place in the 147 division.

    I cannot argue with this because its exactly what i said so i dont know what your point is.

    Only thing you can take issue to is me saying it would be competitive and probably go te distance due to Pacs workrate not allowing Mosley to always be on the offensive.

    My judgement isnt clouded at all

    Yes sorry if I didn't make it clear, my only disagreement is that the fight would not be competitive at all. Pac's workrate would plummet because of counters from SSM. I couldn't see a fight between going more than 6 rounds.

    This is what happens when you blow a fighter up to fast in a short period of time. When he loses, it leaves some fans dumb struck and they say stupid ****.
