    You think?

    Leonard is an old man now, if he was 25 years old he'd be telling Mosley where to shove that nickname. Only one guy deserved that nickname and that is the best pound of pound fighter of all time, Sugar Ray Robinson.

    Also Shane has no intelligence. You ever seen his interviews? Proper thick as ****. He says he can beat Floyd because he's as fast and as powerfull as him. I'm sorry but it's going to take a lot more than just ability to beat Floyd, you'll need a good strategy and a big brain. This is something the so called two best welterweights in Shane and Manny lack.. they just have pure all out ability with Manny probably being the bigger threat due to throwing from different angles.

    Actually prime Mosley (the guy who beat Oscar in the 1st fight) would give Ray or Ray a tough fight. Not saying he would beat them, but Shane Mosley was an amazing fighter back in the day.

    I watched a few of Shane's fights a few days ago and what i realized about Shane was that he was fast, powerful, and aggressive...but he was never able to box.

    Shane bulldozed thru the mexicans but once he fought a gifted black fighter with a little movement and a jab that was his ass...he's one of those fighters who just absolutely needs you to stay in front of him.

    I mean i guess you can say Shane accomplished something in losing twice to the same people.

    But he beat Vargas who beat Winky...fought Winky twice and couldn't adjust

    He knocks out Mayorga at the age of 37 but couldn't beat Vernon who lost to Mayorga twice...

    He can beat a slugger...he can't beat a boxer...he can't adjust.

    Floyd has beaten at least 3. Ndou got destroyed but look at dudes record before he fought Floyd...Corrales he destroyed...and Zab Judah...Shane Mosley is next.

    Judah was the man at 147 when they fought like it or not, and if he wasn't the man, then Baldomir was and since Floyd beat both, end of story.

    Yeah he was elite he was the reason Corey Spinks became elite.

    Former undisputed welterweight champion of the world and he's not elite?

    :patschi guess if you say so.

    Ndou was elite...it was a lot of hype surrounding that fight just like the Corrales fight.

    That is actually a lot easier to answer than you think. He should be moderately aggressive behind his jab, and throw combination's of punches when he sees the opening. He should give some lateral movement after he throws. Not the kind of lateral movement as if he were looking to fight off the back foot, but just enough to make PBF pick up his feet to be in position to punch Shane. And finally he shouldn't look to "Counter" so much as he should be looking to "Exchange" with PBF. If he is successful on this last point you will see PBF's punch count drop even lower than usual.

    And it is that low output and the harder shots being landed by Shane that will allow him to outwork PBF and get a decision.

    P.S. - I don't see a KO, but the possibility of a knockdown is 50-50 in my eyes. But I see the fight going to the cards.
