    Good one! I was just as surprised; I was also surprised when he lost the rematch.

    Also, Forrest/Mora

    This surprises me. I would have guessed you'd pick the speedy slugger over the slow slugger.

    Be my guest, defend that decision if you want. You can defend the Cloud vs Campillo decision too while you're at it.

    We forget and take it for granted now, but at the time I was pretty shocked. That fight made me a Pacquiao believer.

    I was as sure as I've ever been in boxing that not only was Pacquiao too small, but just too wild and crude to beat either Morales or Barrera. I thought he'd lose in pretty 1 sided fashion.

    It wasn't just that he was small. Everyone though Pacquiao had serious chin issues too.

    To be fair, Floyd is black too.

    So in your opinion that excuses Hanzy referring to a black man as a slave, even knowing Hanzy has been banned repeatedly for stirring crap? He's trying to see how far he gets before he gets banned, dude.

    Indians are slaves too. Many races were involved in slavery. Why are you being ignorant Buddy? :dunno:

    Was really surprised not only that Shane lost but how he lost. Getting outsmarted and outboxed by a newbie like that. Plus I hadn't realized how good Cotto was and how bad Shane (actually) was.

    How many of you believe that Shane Mosley was not a great boxer?

    I have never been impressed with Shane's boxing ability; however, I have always believed he was a better FIGHTER than boxer.

    I think Floyd said it best in the 24/7 episode when he was mocking Shane with the herky, jerky movements and waste of movement and energy. Shane does not have a great or even good jab. He's strong, fast and tough, but not very skillful. He was a good counter puncher because he's so anxious to hit you back when he just THINKS you're about to hit him, and he was fast enough to land.

    What do you guys think? Do you agree or not?

    Not a great boxer, and overrated toughness. Guy was afraid to throw punches for a solid three years in the middle of his career.
