Prime Sugar Shane Mosley would of Koed Mayweather

Floyd's gameplan was to walk down Shane and fight flat footed. Floyd would have been more cautious with a prime Shane. And can we assume Floyd is prime also?

 

Too bad he didn't take the fight in 99 or 06....no shame in moving up for Oscar in 99...but it's clear that teh 06 Mosley was very scared of Floyd. He had a toothache and a vacation to take with what is now his X wife.

I'd take Floyd by UD over Shane...32-0 30 KO or not...Shane would not have been able to deal with a cautious Mayweather.

 

Maybe the Floyd that fought Ortiz. but a younger more mobile Floyd? nope. Mosley would STILL get out boxed and look like a fool. mosleys specialty are brawlers.

 

Mayweather both chased oscar and shane and they both avoided him (cant blame them - to high risk low reward). Mayweather cant be blamed for this... And i feel floyd would have won a UD. It would have been closer then when they actually faught but still a clear win

 

Oh no...not this again, Floyd wasn't exactly at the peak of his abilities in that fight either, so are you saying "prime" Corley or a "prime" Zab or anyone who hit Floyd with a good punch would have ko'ed him?

Shane is who he is, if you stand in front of him and trade he's a beast, box him and make him miss he's average...

 

Younger/Prime Floyd moves around the ring like a rabbit.

But back in the day, Shane was even faster and more relentless. And didn't wear down.

 

"Would HAVE," goddamnit.

 

:yep

 

you talking about the Shane who got called out by Floyd? Why was shane ducking? :deal

This is spot on the money (no pun intended) no way would Floyd go toe to toe with prime Shane,he'd have stood off and countered Shane all night.As much as i like Shane,he's always looked much better against brawlers.
The weight thing should also be taken into account,as good as Floyd has been throughout his career,he always looked much sharper at the lower weights.
