    Let's give it to him, the man is a throwback.

    I don't want to really get into anything else about any of the ongoing situations, i just want to say that he's a throwback.

    I like how he says he did his thing by fighting Forrest and Winky.

    It's just a shame he's 37, we could do with him around for another few years.

    I know, he's certainly lost some speed, but he's defo still top class. This kind of stuff really makes a fan of me.

    In his prime he beats Mayweather, no doubt in my book ..

    He's a throw-back dude, but I am curious if he's back to juicing or using unforseen enhancing materials that enable him to look more pumped than usual......... He's doing well at age 37, however, speed and legs tend to drop off around then too....... Mosley is NOT a power-puncher; he's a boxer / puncher........

    Note:

    A serious Josh Clottey MIGHT get his act together and school the aging Mosley if and when they do actually fight........... Mosley could suddenly age over night.........

    Why you lowering the tone man?!! We're just applauding him for his attitude towards the sport basically.

    Hard to come off better to a fightin' fan. I judged him pretty harshly for the EPO, but this just makes me melt. No bull****, n politics, just fighting the best.

    I think DLH will go into the history books as a better rated fighter, but in my opinion, Mosley was always a shade better.

    Because guys like Toney and Mosley seemingly do NOT know when to quit while they are ahead........ They've done plenty.... Why take the one fight too many and become a mockery of your once great self??? Toney is already becoming a serious mockery that shouldn't be, and I feel Mosley will shows his age in the next fight or two if he fights a young, skilled warrior with power and finess........ It'll happen sooner or later......... But the love of money keeps Toney and Mosley coming back for more.......

    It's never nice to see fighters fighting over the hill, but Toney and Mosley are slightly different. One fights obese, the other as of right now is the number one in his weight class.

    Yeah, as much as I like Mosley, I gotta say that the younger Mayrunner would edge him here in 2009, and for sure in 2010......


    Mosley must see that as well, but, he'd take the monster purse for such a risk and probable loss to Mayrunner........

    That's right, Floyd is a bad match up for anyone to be fair though. Maybe the Vernon Forrest type woul've been a pain for him, Vernon himself said the way to beat a speedster is with a good jab. Bigger man as well, though not as good as Myweather ultimately. Who knows?

    Yes... But fat or not.... I have seen Toney dip big time since age 38..... The last three yrs, Toney has been struggling, starting with his '06 fight with Hasbeen Rahman on HBO at a gross 237 pounds....... As for his new win over a bum named 'Greer' who was 12-5 (?) KO's, really didn't prove anything.....

    In-shape or not, at age 37 and at 147 pounds, Mosley will encounter problems with the likes of "Clottey or Mayrunner" for sure.......... Hell, even a slipping Cotto prolly still has enough youth and gas to beat Mosley again by a hair decision.... Other than that, all the other "Lesser" dogs at 147 would still lose to Mosley in 2009........... BUT! 2010 will be a tricky year for Mosley.....
