Shanes speed is being severly over rated here!!

ok atleast admit prime mosley was faster than udah?

 

I dont know who the **** Udah is. But I'll say that his handspeed was a little bit closer to Zabs when he was younger. But foot movement and reflexes.....nope. Don't get me wrong mu****a. Shane is the truth, but some people are looking at him like this unstoppable god.

 

You never heard of Udah? He's one the greatest boxers of all time. Better than Ray Robinson, better than Willie Pep, and better than Kid Gavilan

 

Shane is still very fast and one of the fastest welterweights today but he isnt as fast as his lightweight days and when he first moved up. His reflexes, hand speed, and foot speed is a step slower. His combinations arent as seemless and rapid as days past but he still has impressive hand speed. In the past it made up for his technique but he doesnt throw a stright right hand often and paws the jab, a recipe for disaster against a great counterpuncher

 

:good Tru stuff my friend. His Jab has always been lazy, which is why winky embarrased him, and why he had trouble with ODH at times.

 

you're right, zab's one punch speed is faster than shane's, but shane is the better boxer.

basically you comparing shane to zab is ridiculous, because we all know shane is a lot better. now run a long.

 

the thread is about handspeed, not who is the better boxer. It goes without being said that shane is a better boxer/fighter than zab.

 

Mosley always made up for technical skills with desire, athleticism, and chin. Mayweather is a great athlete and technician which spells trouble for shane who struggles with boxers with good jabs

 

At 135, Mosley was faster than Judah and his boxer-puncher style was fine tuned like no other !

At 135 back then, I would certainly see Mosley beat a guy like FMJ more often than not...

 

agreed. It won't be an easy fight for pbf but you are right, from a technical standpoint floyd has the tools to frustrate mosley.

 

i just don't see why that matters? it's like saying, shane has just fought a harder punching fighter than floyd, and use that as a reason for why shane would beat floyd. at the end of it all, who cares? it don't mean jack****. all in all, shane is better than anyone floyd has fought, and floyd is better than anyone shane has fought, but shane has fought the better, bigger fighters.

 

i think floyd can beat shane, but i think it could turn out to be harder than you expect.

 

Mosley will push him to the limit, Mosley is a hungry fighter and wont just let Mayweather potshot and move he will impose his will but the accuracy and jab of Money May will eke out a close one IMO.

 

I should have clarified. I agreed with the thread starters first two lines. Not the last two. This is a boxing forum, and we make threads regarding every aspect of a fight and boxing. If someone made a thread stating that margo hits harder than pbf it would be all good. Shid, i'm sure you would even find some mu****as saying that pbf hits harder than margo and try to find valid reasons for that claim.
