    mosley by KO?? I wish there was a way of finding out which voters are actual boxing fans and which are dick suckers. Mayweather edges this but This fight is going the distance full stop.

    Both guys are top 3 p4p right now, so could argue this is their primes,

    back when they were around 135 I belive Mosley was top 3 and Mayweather was about 7 p4p? am I right?

    Let me eloborate....FLoyd is a more talented and technically sound smaller man. Shane is more solid and stronger at WW than Floyd. For me I know Floyd is more talented and a more solid boxer but not by much. If Shane holds the advantage in size, power and strength he'll have to be at 147 where Floyd is NOT as good as he was in the lower weight classes.

    Shane can't beat a sound boxer. Period. It was not that Vernon and Winky were taller but they also had sound boxing ability. De La Hoya was recording music and only came in the fight just to knockout Mosley (bad idea). He admitted it. The second fight, Mosley was confused and was beaten. However Floyd is seldom confused and would have Mosley off his game plan the entire night. Floyd by UD anytime in their careers but gets buckled or dropped sometime during a bout at 135lbs.

    If shane was to beat Margareto , mayweather and then pac in his last 3 fights it would be the best 3 wins career, so you could argue that this time period was his prime.

    it would **** on any other stage of his career.

    Is the Mosley that beat Maragrito a better fighter than the Mosley who beat guys at 135?

    Shane can beat a sound boxer. He has in the past. He's human and there are styles and physical advantages that will cause him problems....Wink and Vernon had both...size and style advantages over shane and with all the talent and abilities shane has been blessed with, he couldn't over come the obstacles. He's more seasoned now and has a fresh new outlook with a new set of ears, eyes and mind helping him change his style to fit what he now has as an older vet in the game.

    a very close fight but im going to lean towards Floyd just so smart in the ring and adjust so quick. His ring intelligence rivals NONE!
