Floyd broke his spirit, starting in the last minute of round 2. For me, Floyd was outstanding. Shane is a great boxer who just couldn't match him.
Floyd was very good. His speed was blinding at times, it was unsurprising that Mosley became reluctant to attack him. Mosley would throw a right, Floyd would duck it- and then hit back before Mosley even realised he missed. No one can counter punch as well as Floyd can
I was impressed by Floyd, because he fought toe to toe and dominated a fighter who was probably his most dangerous opponent yet. Not only did he beat hm he beat him convincingly. So I would say based on all the slack that he's been getting about him not fighting big opponents. He looked rather good dismantling Shane.
Watch the fight moar closely. Floyd was pressing the action in the last 30 seconds of the 2nd and the entire 3rd. Shane was trying to use his jab to set up shots on Floyd in the 3rd to no avail. Those lead leaping left hooks and Floyd's counter right kept Mosley honest. Mayweather took away all of Mosley's offensive arsenals in that 3rd. Everyone knows Mosley doesn't have a good jab, but that was all he was left with. Being countered way too often after throwing his useless punch made him lose confidence, and having the last minute of round two taken away from him by a pressing forward Floyd ****ed with his head. We all expected Floyd to win, but no one thought he was going to walk Mosley down. Mosley was shocked himself.
Both. Floyd made Shane perform very badly and performed well himself. Floyds laser counterpunching makes his opponents scared to throw in fear of getting hit back thus making Shane throw less punches, thus making Shane look tired and old and slow handed.
Wonderful imaginations. Warms my heart. Anyway, in real life there was a fight and Floyd won. Good fight.
I once saw a guy get shot in the face on youtube. He looked terrible and was shot for his erosion of skill.
Everyone in my livingroon was pointing out how gassed SS looked after the second round. He was either weight drained or overtrained because he looked shot. Floyd looked brilliant. He was coiled like a Cobra, and his counters were acurate and sharp. SS at his best would have won more than one round, but he would have still lost the fight.
I been saying all day he was weight drained and no one seems to believe me. Shane is not a WW no more and can not make the weight. He is somewhere along the MW weight class. He has been fighting @ 47 for a min now so when he went up to 54 to fight Winky and then came back down his body weight is set where his last weight was at unless he trains religiously which I have not heard no boxer do except for Roy and Floyd. I do not know if Shane is a rat in the gym or if he trains when he gets a fight but I do know that he will struggle with anyone with decent speed @ 47 now (Floyd, Pac, Berto, Judah). He either needs to move up in weight or retire.
Give Floyd the credit he deserve's he is a very good fighter and Mosley got his ass kick by a great fighter. Mosley should retire his time is over and know he is a has been.
Combination of both. Mosley shouldn't have gassed out that quick regardless but im sure Floyd's feints making Mosley so tense and his perfect counterpunches had a lot to do with it too.
