can you answer me this dodong?

why would anyone be afraid of floyd ?

you fight him and you are expected to loss so if you do you loss nothing ..

you gain a career high payday and get huge ammounts of exposure

why do so many people give shane mosley a pass for blatantly ducking floyd when floyd was calling the big names out?

is it because people really just love shane or is it because alot of people hate floyd?

when floyd was a huge ppv star shane mosley called floyd out and floyd gave him the shot right away (though the destruction of Margarito sure earnt him that shot). yet i see countless times "floyd ducked younger mosley"

I forgot how bad SSM looked in that interview . . . Bhop started laughing in the background when he mentioned his tooth.

Shane was terrified to throw a real punch post Mayweather

Of course not Not now when you are getting a lottery ticket(only manny is that bitchmade:hi but back then nobody was mentioning Mayweather name and he floated right near HOF and so called HOF divisions like, PNH, Erik Morales, Marco Antonio Barrera, Kosta Tszyu and such they couldn't and wouldnt dear mumble his name. He was high risk low reward

This is 100% correct . . . as you can see in that video Floyd called out Zu, Gatti, SSM and Oscar . . . hell he was calling out SSM and Oscar for years. But people forget (or care not to remember) this.

Then what do u call it Dumbo?? he startight said he needs to check his tooth when Mayweather fight comes out, giime a break. Moley ducked him. just like hatton did at 140. Just like Arum did when he didnt let Mayweather fight him at 140. Just like Casamayor and Frietas straight saying hell no, not even 128 catch weight ill fight you.

Plenty of fighters have ducked Floyd, hell I wouldve. youe chance of winning are slim to none

Though some would get a laugh out of this old ESB article titled Six Myths Regarding Mayweather - Mosley: Why Shane Mosley Will Win (LINK)

**SNIP**

Mosley will be the first legitimate threat Mayweather has ever faced at welterweight. While almost everyone is willing to admit that Mosley might well be Mayweathers toughest fight to date, few seem willing to admit that Mayweather is ill-prepared to face adversity because of his refusal to prove himself against top welterweights in recent years. Now, Mayweather is finally testing himself against a top level fighter who is hungry and motivated. Mosley may be older, but unlike Floyd, he has always been willing to prove his greatness with the best and he has always dared to be great. This alone will provide another huge advantage for Shane on fight night.

Conclusion

Contrary to popular belief, Mosley was not begging for fights against Mayweather or Pacquiao because he wanted a payday. He was begging for those fights because he always wanted to prove his greatness by fighting the best available and Pacquiao and Mayweather are both widely perceived as the two best boxers in the world. Mosley is not a perfect fighter, and there are fighters out there who would give him trouble. He struggles with naturally bigger fighters who utilize their size and power while working behind a jab. Someone like Paul Williams would represent a very bad style match-up for Shane at this point in his career, but against Floyd, the style match-up actually favors Mosley when you look at the bigger picture. Mayweather is not going to be able to exploit Shane with quickness and counter-punching the way many seem to believe. On the contrary, Mosley will present the same type of problem for Mayweather that guys like Winky and Forrest presented to him.

Shane Mosley is going to win this fight and he is going to do so in dominant fashion. There is a reason Mayweather has avoided elite level welterweights for nearly five years. He has always been reluctant to fight the best this division had to offer, and against Mosley, in order for him to winhe is going to need to fight at a level we have not seen him fight at some time and a level we have never seen him fight at north of the junior welterweight division. Mosley is going to force Mayweather into a fight, and when push comes to shove, Mayweather is not ready for a fight because he would much prefer to put on a boxing clinic against someone who poses no threat to him. Make no mistake, Mayweather did not want this fight with Mosleyhe was backed into a corner after the collapse of failed negotiations with Pacquiao, and in order to save face he had no choice but to fight Sugar Shane.

The fans may clamor for a mega fight between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao, but Mosley has something to say about that, and after Mosley beats Floyd and does so impressively, fans will soon be craving a fight between Mosley and Pacquiaoand that one will represent a dream fight for boxing fans.

Prediction: Mosley by mid to late round stoppage

Shane speaks the truth :

Q: After you challenged him, a week later, Mayweather wished you good luck in your career which seemed to indicate hes not interested in fighting you. He also mentioned that he challenged you twice, and he claims that you turned him down back in 1999 and again in 2006. Did you really turn him down?

A: Like I said, hes really a liar. He likes to lie a lot. In 1999 theres a film where hes fighting in Michigan when he was fighting at 130 and I was fighting at 135, and I asked him, like when HBO does the prefight analysts talk to the fighters before they fight. I talked to him, and hopefully its recorded somewhereI think it was on FXI asked him, Are you planning on coming up to lightweight to fight me? And he said, No, He had no intention of coming to lightweight to fight me, he wanted t beat Carlos Monzons record. He didnt want to come to lightweight. Thats when I jumped from lightweight to welterweight to fight Oscar De La Hoya. That was the first incident that hes talking about, so he turned me down in 1999.

Now, the other time hes talking about is when I fought three timesone, two, three, back-to-back-to-backand they tried to rush me to fight him right away, like two or three months later. I said, give me a month, and well do it like, I think it was in JanuaryI said, Well do it in January. They wanted to do it in like November or December, and I said, Give me a month and well do it in January or February. They didnt want to do that. So they chose to fight Oscar De La Hoya. I said, Go ahead and fight Oscar, and if you beat Oscar, then lets get busy. Lets do this. He beat Oscarhe didnt want to fight me.

Hes been turning me down. I hate when he continues to say, Oh, he turned me down because of a tooth ache. Yeah. I got head butted in that fight that and my tooth was loose that night. They asked me to fight Mayweather and I said, Give me an extra month, and Ill fight him. He didnt want to fight me, which was cool. He could go and fight Oscar because thats more money. Okay. Thats cool, but after that fight if you winfight me. He didnt want to do that. He chose to retire or fight somebody else. Im getting tired of that lie! They need to wipe that lie out of there. The reporters and stuff, they keep saying it, so that lie needs to be talked about.

Honestly I dont know why we overrated him, even a harsh critic like myself loved that wild shyt back in the day, these days looking back Im not that impressed, who the **** did he beat pre De La Hoya, and it aint like he dominated the 1st match he squeaked by, I wont even mention the 2nd cause of Arum fukkery...

But who was Shane for us to be kissing his ass, luckily for him a NC stopped the Marquez fight becuase he was well on his way to taking a L there, and there wouldnt have been no OScar rematch, or Winky, or the myriad of other asswhippings he took with a win over a c class Margarito sprinkled on top of that shyt

yes and at one point shane climbed into the ring and personally called mayweather out when mayweather was a big star.. it still does not hide the fact that he publicly stated numerous times in interviews he WOULD NOT fight floyd.

Great interview, except it was AFTER he turned down Mayweather with his toothache.

Nice try though.
