    To be honest mayweather hardly used his feet in this fight. In fact he stayed in front of shane all night, rarely moving like he does across the ring.

    yes, with the exception of the 2nd round anytime Mosley did try to press the action Floyd would simply back up and then counter him thus making the attempt pointless. He totally neutralized Shane. Hand speed had alot to do with that as well.

    If Pac where to press the action he could step with Floyd. I don't favor Pac but it is the only fight to be made for those two.

    Well, that question is fully answered, really. Floyd has been tagged hard in the past as well as last night, and he always answers back emphatically. He has incredible mental strength in that he always comes back stronger even in the same round he was put to the test. Let no one question his mental strength or chin again.

    I was very nervous during the 2nd round since I had $500 (not vcash) riding on Mayweather by decision. But hey, my prediction ended up being picture perfect and I'm now $375 richer thanks to my man Money Mayweather.

    From round 4 on, I knew it was going to be a blow out.

    I was nearly off my seat in the second round, was literally breathless. So shocked to see Floyd take those kind of shots, and the way he buckled...it really looked like he was only one more punch away from getting flattened. I have NO idea how he was able to actually walk forward and fire back at the end of the round...Nazim's prediction, or at least part of his prediction, was spot on. Floyd really did turn into a dragon, something I never expected against someone like Mosley. I wonder if even Shane believed that would happen.
