--Shane Mosley and New Boxing Fans--

Okay, I'm just trying to figure out why Shane Mosley has gotten way overrated as of late. He has always been a tad bit overrated, but now he's fighting Floyd and all of a sudden he is this "slick boxer with a lanky jab", "this monster who can walk through anyone and any punch"?!

I can't help but to think it's just a bunch of little kids new to boxing who are claiming Mosley will undoubtedly KO Floyd.

Guys, incase you didn't know, this is the same Mosley who was beat by a jab against Winky. The same Mosley who was outboxed by Oscar's superior boxing ability, the same Mosley who was outhustled and nearly KO by the technically sound Forrest , and the same Mosley who was beat to the jab, and outboxed by Miguel Cotto, the pressure fighter!!

In the last 8 years Shane has had ONE good performance against a true title holder. ONE. And this title holder is the COMPLETE opposite of what Mayweather is.

Mayweather is a better jabber than Cotto, Mayweather is a better boxer than Winky and Forrest.

As much as I appreciate Mosley, he will undoubtedly get outboxed by Floyd.

I do however give Mosley as punchers chance.

 

I think I got it. :good Thanks

 

Well considering his age, his performances against inferior fighter to PBF such as Cotto, Mayorga, Forrest, and the fact that in the last 9 years he's only had ONE really good win, 5 losses, two hard fought wins against 2 different (shot, past prime at best) fighters, I don't see him having anything more than a punchers chance.

Out of those 5 losses, which should actually be 6 if you thought (and most do) Oscar beat him in the rematch, he was always outboxed and outjabbed. Now at his advanced age he is fighting the most technically skilled fighter out of the 6 losses he has.

Think about it.

 

No, he beat him ONCE, when Oscar decided to stand toe to toe. But in the rematch Oscar decided to BOX, and outboxed Mosley. The consensus will tell you Mosley got a gift against Oscar who was thoroughly outboxing him. The Steroids helped Mosley stay real strong in that fight, but Oscar still outboxed him.

The Winky losses were about 5 years ago not 10. atsch

And yes YEARS have passed by and he's older, and less mobile now.

That completely proves my point. Cotto the pressure fighter actually OUTBOXED Mosley. PBF is a far superior boxer to Cotto.

Sorry dude, but you were wrong in EVERY SINGLE quuote.

 

Good lookin out.

 

I agree with you in just about every point, except the last one. I have always thought Oscar could have outboxed Mosley in their first fight, but Oscar had something to prove so he went balls out against Mosley.

I felt Oscar's decision to slugg it out brought the best out in the speedy slugger Mosley.
