Why does Mosley always pick styles that are terrible for him? Is he stupid?

    Hes crap against slick boxers. Hasnt he learned this yet?

    Mora isnt that good by any means bUT hes a mover So why the hell has Mosley picked him? Such a stupid move IMO

    Mosley will look terrible in this fight and might even lose

    He doesn't care who he fights as long as he is fighting.

    He just wants to get paid before his time is up. Mosley has never been a boxer, but neither is Manny P. and why mayweather will whop that ass the same as he did Mosley.

    Shane is naive. Mora could cause an upset here.

    He's somewhere between stupid and brave, depending on your pov. The Winky and Vernon rematches were borderline stupid imo. There's no honor in taking repeated ass kickings from guys you simply can't beat. But thats what makes him great.

    Styles make fights, and Mosley and Manny P's styles (Non-boxing brawlers) are tailor made for Mayweather. :yep
    Drop your loot against Pacman. :thumbsup

    YEa imagine that a fighter who will fight everyone and anyone. ****ing terrible for boxing.

    Why cant he be more like Pac and PBF? He should be asking Mora to fight at a catchweight and 90-10 purse split. And start negotiations today so they can finally sign the contract 2 years from now.

    If all fighters were like Mosley we wouldnt need the UFC.

    Mosley is a warrior, he fears no man, but he's also not the sharpest tool on the shed.

    Well, 1 thing is willing to fight anyone, another thing is taking a meaningless fight against someone you don't have to fight, who has the wrong style for you.

    I'd rather see Mosley fight Clottey, or Berto....

    I don't think GBP is that dumb, perhaps they are testing Mosley against Mora to see if he wold be able to hang with the tall lanky Paul Williams...:think

    I guess if challenging yourself is stupid, then yes.
