Floyd Mayweather vs Sugar Shane Mosley [May 1st]
- Thread starter 2-0-Sixx
- Start date
Mayweather proved to me if no one else he is in a class by himself. I was one of the guys who thought Mosley had a chance, and for two rounds it seemed he would make Mayweather fight his fight. After getting rocked, Mayweathers corner quickly reminded him that a toe to toe brawl would go in Mosleys favor, and he adjusted correctly. Bottom line is Pac Man will not take this fight now. Not ever. He will figure out a way to wiggle out of any negotiations and end up fighting Mosely(who will beat Manny, don't get it twisted). Mayweather beat a great fighter easy. Manny don't want no parts of that.
You must not like boxing much.....Mayweather put on a clinic.....Like everyone has said, he made adjustments after the 2nd round and never looked back....Mayweather is so relaxed in the ring its scary......Mosley is the bigger powerful puncher that everyone said floyed was scared of.....He took the fight dominated it....What can anyone else say now....Pac man should take the test and lets put the P4P thing to rest....
I think the fight would have been a totally different fight if Shane had a real jab. he was just a quick as Floyd and showed it, but because he is a not a true boxer, he got exploited. he should have been more relaxed and let the KO come to him instead of chasing it. But the jab was the difference. In the first 2 rounds, Floyd was lungin with hooks. from the 3rd round on, he started to jab and that was a difference. If Shane could have jabbed with him, it would have been a closer fight. Once Floyd had Shane's timing down, it was a foregone conclusion. Mosley still showed he had a great chin even in defeat.
Judging by most peoples reaction to what happened to Mosley last night. I can tell that people have not been following Floyd's career for very long. His boxing resume is better then B-Hop, Roy Jr, Pac-man and Del Hoya's. If you don't like him talking trash, fine beat him in the ring and make him stop talking. Money is really one of the best boxers of all time. Money will break you down and hit you with clean hard punches all night. If you have no defense like Pac-Man, P-Will, Cotto, Maracheato...etc. You have no chance of winning the fight, because you will get hit with clean countershot for 12 rounds.
The fact of the matter is that when he was Floyd "Pretty Boy" Mayweather KOing people at 130-140, no one cared about him Mosley included.. But enter the sh**talking Floyd "Money" Mayweather, and now he's cashing all the big checks and making all the white folks and haters mad on way.. And he's backing up his words by beating the brakes off his opp's in the ring.. He's earned the right to be called "Money" with me pimpin, because I always win some money from some hater betting on him to lose.. I love seeing a black man getting legal money for his talents. Plus I love boxing!!
I used to LOVE boxing. These days, I like it........but a lot of the fights are just flat out boring as hell. Pac....he's fun to watch cuz he GOES for it. I'll always buy a PPV if he's fighting. THe fight last night, there were 2 parts that were "fun" to watch. When Mosley rocked Mayweather and when they were talking shit and Mayweather caught him with a good one. Other than that......yaaaaaaaaaawn. I don't want to watch 2 people slap box for 12 rounds, and most of the fights I'm seeing these days, that's exactly what happens. 12 round decision? Not ONE fucking knock down? Boring as hell. Yes, I understand he put on a clinic, and was technical, but thats boring. I enjoyed the Cotto vs Alvarez fight way more then Floyd vs Mosley. ALvarez is legit. Same thing in MMA though. I could give 2 shits how "technical" someone is. John Fitch for example, he wins most of his fights, and people love him cuz he's so technically good. But ALL his fights go to decision and are fucking boring to watch. I like fighters who try to FINISH the fight. A fight this big, and 12 rounds no knock downs? WEAK SAUCE!
On another note, the whole Pac/Mayweather shit is getting ridiculous. I AM NOT saying Mayweather is ducking him, but he's acting gay. The rules are in place and now he's coming out trying to enforce "new" rules in order to fight people. Is there any proof Pac has ever used roids or HGH? Didn't he say he would do the blood test right after the fight? Shits getting real corny.

He said he would take it right after the fight. The shit would still be in his system. Does the athletic commission have these rules in place? No. Have they ever? No. They already have rules, and drug testing, and you don't hear anybody else complaining. You say he's making excuses, but one could say the same exact thing about Mayweather and what he's doing.
