Mayweather-Mosley How does it go down and who wins?

Pretty much a formality. The announcement will be made soon, right? They'll agree to testing, gloves, size of ring, venue, etc... Mayweather will step in with one of the top welters in the world.

How do you see this fight unfolding? Does the shoulder roll work with Mosley? Will Shane's bombs land? Will Mayweather come to the inside with Mosley?

Who wins and how?

 

The real question is why the fuck are people acting like this fight is signed?

 

I think it's because Mosley's trainer Nazim "Swim without getting wet" Richardson has stated that they will agree to the demand of Olympic random testing.

So Mosley has no problem being dictated to because he wants the fight. They are both with G. Mayweather didn't fight Pacquaio, Mosley is not going to fight Berto. This is the best option for BOTH fighters.

Unless there is an unforeseen move, this is the fight that makes the most sense since the biggest fight of the decade fellthrough.

 

How many PPV's does this fight do if it does come off. Now about my prediction. If Cotto was able to outbox Shane I can see PBF doing the exact same. I'll Holla 5000

 

:: @ Mayweather getting into a ring with Shane Mosley

"You don't see me disrespecting you during your interviews! Respect me as a man!"

 

Mosley struggled to beat Mayorga. Mayweather should outbox him fairly easily.

TFK

 

There is no if or buts, Mayweather HAS TO take this fight. Mosley is agreeing to everything being dictated to him.

If he refuses to fight Mosley, he won't do 100k against blowup jr welters...

 

I thought Mayweather-Mosley was the fight to make back when Mayweather was calling out the lightweight champion of the world, Juan Manuel Marquez.

Even cornered into this interesting predicament where Mosley is now suddenly available, and ready, I think this fight has a 5% chance of happening based on Mayweather's cowardice.

I'm looking forward to Mayweather-Lovemore NDou though.

 

I think it's because he wasn't swimming correctly.

Mosley doesn't use his speed against those guys. He decides to trade against them instead of outboxing them fairly easily. Instead he goes for the KO.

Mosley can box but he chooses to be a boxer puncher.

 

There is no mention of the purse split yet. Do you think Floyd is going to give Mosley 50-50 like he was going to with Manny?

The purse split WILL be a problem.

 

What were the numbers for De la Hoya-Mosley two fights? Would a fight that happned TEN years ago have a bearing on a purse today? Will they add a KO incentive of 10% of purse to appease Mosley?

Will Floyd be difficult with his only RESPECTABLE dance partner?

 

What do you think?

Has Mosley been outboxed by Winky Wright before? Cotto beat Mosley, Margarito beat Cotto, all these guys beating each other.

But let me ask you a question, who beat Floyd Mayweather?

 

Nobody. Never mind who has he beat. Whoever questions Floyd just doesn't know shit about boxing.

 

If the fight happens, I hope Mosley KTFO of PBF.

 

Brian Kenny don't know nothing about boxing.

 

So if PBF takes this fight and wins what does that do for his welterweight reign? Does he know get a pass or does he still need to fight Paul Williams/Marg/Berto/Manny? I'll Holla 5000

 

Mosely should contractually stipulate that he's allowed to fail up to 3 pre-fight and 1 post-fight 'roid test.

 

This is the only clean fight, or as clean as the WADA can guarantee out of the two so called 'Mega-fights',.. and that has to be applauded,.. however there are other ways of breaking the rules, Fraud indulges in them while fighting,.. and unless Shane and his team have an intense camp with the goal of attacking Fraud's head while twisted backwards and bent below belt level, expect Fraud to pot-shot his way to another stinking decision, 8 - 4 in reality, but, Fraud's groupies as they do, will call it a shut-out.

 

hope springs eternal. but who are you picking to win

 

A pass? Do you mean should he go back to fighting lightweights? No! The guy is a welterweight and has been one for years. And if he wins a title there (from Mosley), I see no reason why he shouldn't continue to fight the best guys out there.

If by a pass, you mean to ask, "does fighting Mosley erase for PBF years of not fighting the best guys in his division?," then hell no. The past cannot be changed. It will help PBF's legacy though, if and when he faces and defeats the best guys in his division.

 

Pacman and 3 million buys that's the ULTIMATE goal. Not only financially but a win versus Manny puts him up there as the best fighter of his era.

That's what he is RISKING in stepping in with Sugar Shane. If he is caught by Mosley then he has to get by a top 5 welter like a Paul williams in order to REMAIN relevant.

 

I'll believe that Williams can make 147 when I see it.

 

Why can't a guy like Floyd get a break? If he defeats Mosley, then he also defeats Margarito, then by default he defeats Cotto, Quintana.

He then doesn't NEED to fight any of those guys. Follow the REASONING?

Since some people thought Marquez beat Manny in one of the two fights, no need to fight him either. Mayweather could get paid by DEBATING boxing and never enter a ring again.

 

Agreed. This isn't even worth speculating about.

 

Mayweather is a GAMBLING man. He earns $20 million vs Mosley. if he loses, it's Mosley who will be making above $40 million with Pacquiao. A guy who Mayweather will never fight anyway.

 

So Floyd Mayweather is in his 30s and Oscar Dela Hoya is in his 30s, they meet up and fight, when they meet up and fight and, and Floyd beats him, he's over the hill. But when Pacquiao fights him, they say this is the greatest thing they ever seen. Which one is it? Is Floyd going to speak his piece or not? Because you want to interview Floyd, he don't want to interview you.

 

A belt don't make Floyd. Guess what, Mosley is not a pay per view attraction.

Marquez has a country behind him! And we know Mexicans and Black fighters has been dominating for years and you always get your best fights when you match them together.

 

What a weird thing to ask.

You mean if he fights Mosley it makes him for him fighting only 1 legit welterweight in his 5 years if campaigning at 147?

Of course not. And you're insinuating that if he fights Mosley, he doesn't need to fight any other challenges, he can go back to dragging people up from featherweight? ::

Someone who is considered to be one of the 2 best fighters in the world, of any weight division, should be fighting the toughest challenges every single fight, not once every few years.

 

I think Mosley will force Mayweather to be great in order to win. As much as people rag on him now - Ricky Hatton forced Mayweather to be in top form to win that fight, and he won it impressively in late TKO fashion.

Guys like DLH, Baldomir and JMM didn't force the issue and didn't force greatness out of Floyd. I don't think Floyd raises his game to the level of stopping Shane, but I do think he raises his game to an impressive win in exciting fashion, because Mosley will have all of Hatton's aggressiveness yet more speed, strength and combination punching

 

I think Floyd will get 60/40 and Shane won't give a shit.
