Shane Looked To Me That He Was More Weary Of Throwing Than Being Dead Tired

    I don't think so. He looked completely horrible in the winky fight, at least the first one. the 2nd one he loss and looked better, but the first one he looked horrible and didn't really do anything.

    Floyd has more athleticism than winky. Winky covers and people get free hits on his arms. The second fight Shane did better because he throw more body shots and actually throw combinations. In the first fight he throw 1 punch at a time and looked awful.

    Mosley wasnt tired, he was confused.

    He simply didnt know where to hit once PBF made adjustments.

    To me it seemed after the second, mosley thought he could pick his shots needed to get mayweather out of there.
    He was always looking for that perfect opening, it didnt happen, and then it snowballed into mosley not throwing anything, i dont think it was because he was worried about being countered.
    He was looking for a shot that was only going to come if he let his gloves go.
    Such a shame, he very nearly had him out in the second round.

    That's basically what he said in the post-fight. But Alas, ESB posters know better than Mosley I guess.

    He's 38 what can you expect. He had his few moments atleast, and gave his all.

    Yeah, but Mosely stopped throwing int he third round fromt he very beginning. This is after a first round where Floyrd landed on 2 clean shot and a 2nd round in which Mosely completely dominated. So what happened in that span that fits your description?

    Either he was being beaten to the jab which clearly happened, not sure when it started, or like it was mentioned, it was due to round 2 when he landed those clean shots....

    quite possibly he began to headhunt due to instinct.

    How is 209 punches connected in 12 ounds make Mosley wary of throwing punches?

    That is just 17 connects per round, typically very low standards. And not all of those are even hard punches.
