    I completely agree.

    There is still a breed of fighter out there that will give Mosley major problems, but Pac doesn't bring that to the table.

    If Mosley selects carefully, he can hang on another 2 years at or near the top.

    Unlike Floyd, Mosley was never afraid of losing that zero and always actively SOUGHT to fight the best.

    :happy

    Yeah: there was a period from about 2001-2004 kept on fighting ridiculously difficult opponents, fight after fight. Very few boxers in the modern era have faced the total number of dangerous opponents (let alone low-reward high-risk opponents) that Mosley has.

    A truly amazing performance. I freely admit I didn't give Shane a chance. That was something truly special

    Mayweather was looking for money fights anyhow and Mosley was looking for the best fights, that's the difference. Mosley would beat Mayweather in a UD.
